The motion also included new details on how Trump’s relationship with Pence deteriorated, with the former vice-president telling Trump to stop repeating false election fraud theories and move on.

The documents released on Friday include transcripts of interviews with the 6 January House committee that investigated the US Capitol riot, parts of Pence’s autobiography and fundraising emails sent to voters.

It is unclear if the 6 January case will ever go to trial. Trump is expected to end the prosecution if he returns to the White House.

He is facing several other criminal cases. He already has been convicted on 34 felony counts in New York in relation to a hush-money payment.

    And we knew this was going to come out about now at the beginning of the year. I saw so many experts calling out that the delay measures would put shit like this right at the lead up to the election. Granted they expected trial or deposition stuff, but still, delaying it made a self-own October surprise inevitable.
