NEW: I have transcript from today's hearing before Judge Chutkan and it's worse than reported.
Chutkan marveled at Jack Smith's rapid "discovery" production while downplaying fact DOJ could not name a single case in DC District that went from indictment to trial in 5 months:

Chutkan confronted John Lauro, Trump's attorney, about needing longer than 4 months to go thru 12 million+ pages of evidence bc--get this--most of it related to Trump and he must have reviewed it already. Sure, he has all the J6 committee material in his nightstand😂
Absolutely preposterous. Chutkan, desperate to fast track Trump's trial, continues to challenge Trump's lawyer on his need to do his job.
Chutkan argues that he should have started preparing Trump's defense A YEAR AGO.
"Just like any other American," right, judge?

Chutkan keeps saying case won't go to trial in 2026 and grasping for reasons why. She continues to hammer Trump's lawyer for not reviewing possible evidence related to an indictment that didn't even exist.
"It's not a surprise he's been indicted."

Jaw on the floor. Chutkan continues to scold Trump's lawyer for not going through unidentified trove of evidence before not-yet issued indictment.
"You had an opportunity."
"You had an opportunity."
