WASHINGTON (AP) — The federal judge presiding over the classified documents case against former President Donald Trump and two of his associates has struck a paragraph from the indictment but denied a defense request to dismiss some of the charges. The paragraph concerns allegations that Trump, in 2021 while no longer president, showed a classified map of a foreign country to a representative of his political action committee while discussing a military operation that he said was not going well. Though she struck the paragraph, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon denied a defense request to dismiss actual charges in the indictment.
