BREAKING: The DC Circuit Court of Appeals has granted a brief hold on the Trump executive privilege decision, setting a schedule that includes arguments on Nov. 30.
THE PANEL:

Judge Patricia Millett (Obama)
Judge Robert Wilkins (Obama)
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson (Obama/Biden)
IMPORTANT: The House and DOJ did *NOT* oppose this temporary hold. They got a pretty quick briefing schedule out of it. Puts them on track to get documents in early December, if they prevail.
NEW: The appeals court has slowed down the Jan. 6 committee’s access to Trump White House records.

But the three-judge panel — which includes two Obama and one Biden appointee — set a really fast schedule.

ALSO IMPORTANT: The House was only slated to receive about 70 pages Friday. Larger tranches we’re slated for release on Nov. 26, which aligns closely with the appeals court schedule.

Future tranches identified by the Archives would come out even later.

NEWS: Proescutors are seeking a 51-month ail sentence for Jacob CHANSLEY, the so-called "QAnon Shaman" who stormed the Senate and scrawled a meancing note to Mike Pence.

w/ @joshgerstein

politico.com/news/2021/11/1…
@joshgerstein Chansley has become the most infamous defendant to breach the Capitol. Images of him shirtless, wearing a horned viking hat on the Senate rostrum — just after VP Pence was evacuated — helped define the insurrection.

@joshgerstein "When rioters flooded the U.S. Capitol and the defendant took the Senate dais, they accomplished the goal so many could never have imagined—they halted the peaceful transfer of power upon which our democracy is built."

BREAKING Judge Tanya Chutkan has rejected Donald Trump's effort to block the Jan. 6 committee from accessing his White House records, determining that Biden's decision to release them is more significant.

"Presidents are not kings, and Plaintiff is not President," she writes.
The ruling is a significant victory for the Jan. 6 committee's effort to peer into Trump's mindset as he stoked false claimed about voter fraud and sougth to delegitimize the outcome of the 2020 election.

Trump has already appealed.

Here is the complete 39-page ruling:

-Ben Williamson
-Keith Kellogg
-Nick Luna
-Christopher Liddell
-Molly Michael
-Cassidy Hutchinson

Story TK w/ @woodruffbets
@woodruffbets MCENTEE's role here may be the most far-reaching. He helped Trump try to purge disloyal aides after the Nov. 3 election.

His deposition is scheduled for Dec. 15 — the latest of all the requests. Miller is scheduled for Dec. 14, and McEnany Dec. 3.

@woodruffbets Williamson is the figure who will hit closest to home on Capitol Hill. He was Meadows' right-hand / press secretary in Congress and followed his boss to the White House. politico.com/news/2021/11/0…

UPDATE: Jan. 6 committee Chairman Bennie Thompson tells me contempt is “on the table” after former Trump DOJ official Jeffrey Clark declined to answer questions during a brief deposition.

Clark claimed a mix of executive/attorney privileges.

The Jan. 6 committee will discuss the matter later today and decide on a course of action, he said. politico.com/news/2021/11/0…
