Judge Tanya S. Chutkan, the federal judge overseeing Donald Trump's Jan. 6 case, issued an order Thursday approving the release of redacted source documents that provided special counsel Jack Smith with potentially incriminating material on the former president's attempts to overturn the 2020 election.
Much of the information in those documents was used by prosecutors in a 165-page legal brief arguing that the Trump should still be prosecuted despite the Supreme Court ruling this summer that granted him broad immunity.
