Hours after he was indicted on federal criminal charges connected to his mishandling of more than 100 classified documents, former President Trump said two of his attorneys were no longer representing him.
Hours after that news broke, Trump, on Friday morning, shook up his legal team, shedding a pair of attorneys who'd so far represented the ex-commander-in-chief through the investigation.
“For purposes of fighting the Greatest Witch Hunt of all time, now moving to the Florida Courts, I will be represented by Todd Blanche, Esq., and a firm to be named later,” Trump wrote. “I want to thank Jim Trusty and John Rowley for their work, but they were up against a very dishonest, corrupt, evil, and sick’ group of people.”
That announcement came just after news emerged that the case against him would be overseen — initially — by a federal judge he appointed who’d come under criticism by a higher court over for ruling in his favor on a series of issues earlier in the investigation.
