After special counsel Jack Smith threatened to appeal if the judge in the Mar-a-Lago case did not order the redaction of government witness names, the judge begrudgingly reversed herself. Now the jurist is expressing “concern” about Smith’s observance, or lack thereof, of the careful framework he insisted on in Donald Trump’s Espionage Act prosecution.

On Sunday, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon issued an order surrounding Trump defense motions to dismiss the case on grounds of alleged prosecutorial misconduct and violations of due process, as well as a Trump motion to suppress based on the “unlawful piercing of attorney-client privilege.”
