A federal judge railed against former president Donald Trump’s attempt to subvert democracy, saying he “more likely than not” committed a federal crime, when he ruled that the former presidents attorney, John C Eastman, must turn over emails that the lawyer had attempted to withhold from the committee investigating the January 6 riot at the US Capitol.
Judge David Carter, who serves on the United States District Court for the Central District of California, made the comments against Mr Trump in his ruling released on Monday.
