AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Left
A federal judge on Friday ordered the release of a heavily redacted trove of evidence supporting the contention by federal prosecutors that former President Donald J. Trump illegally sought to overturn the 2020 election.
In ordering the release, the judge was rejecting objections by Mr. Trumpβs legal team that making even a largely blanked-out version of the material public now would constitute interference in the presidential election.
