The trial date for former President Donald Trump related to the events of Jan. 6, 2020, has been removed from the Washington, D.C., federal court calendar, indicating a likely delay due to Trump’s appeal on immunity from prosecution.
Speculations by Trump supporters on the date change were dismissed as unfounded by an attorney representing Jan. 6 defendants.
“So all you supposedly ‘In the know’ X-sters, just stop posting nonsensical conspiracy theories about why the Court — NOT JACK SMITH — removed the trial from the March 4 calendar,” attorney Bill Shipley wrote.
Within hours of my office sending a letter asking Jack Smith to produce information regarding his investigation, his case against Trump is removed from the docket. Jack Smith owes the American people and Congress answers. https://t.co/zGvI2UJ6Q2 pic.twitter.com/dFw05ELmNR

Trump has not celebrated the docket change, suggesting it was not seen as a victory.
The appellate court is yet to rule on Trump’s immunity status, which could impact the trial timeline and other criminal cases he faces.
Everyone posting theories about why the US v. Trump DC case was removed from the March 3 calendar — which I noted here yesterday — are making clowns of yourself. Your GUESSES are idiotic.
Tomorrow was the day the Juror questionnaires were supposed to be returned to the Court…
