Description: Judge Aileen Cannon agreed to remove a paragraph from Donald Trump's indictment that referenced him waving around a classified document at his Bedminster club in 2021. The judge ruled the paragraph should be removed because Trump was not charged for that specific conduct, adding it could unfairly prejudice a jury. The removed paragraph described Trump showing a classified map of Afghanistan to his 2024 campaign chief and criticizing the US withdrawal while president. Prosecutors had argued the conduct was relevant to proving Trump's state of mind or intent, but the judge disagreed since he wasn't charged for it.
