Six Colorado voters have filed a lawsuit against former President Donald Trump, claiming he is disqualified from appearing on the state's ballots in the 2024 presidential election. Harvard constitutional law professor Laurence Tribe has shared his support for the lawsuit, which is being spearheaded by the government watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW).

Lawrence O'Donnell has suggested that Donald Trump's 18 co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case are in a state of "abject panic," as Rudy Giuliani, Trump's personal lawyer and a co-defendant, is set to meet with the Fulton County District Attorney.

Former President Donald Trump is set to surrender to Fulton County authorities in Georgia on Thursday, with a $200,000 bond and a prohibition from making any direct or indirect threats against any co-defendants, witnesses, victims, or the community. State Representative Tanya Miller (D) has noted that Trump should be scared of facing Fulton County prosecutor Fani Taifa Willis in court, and the bond order also states that Trump shall make no posts on social media or reposts of posts made by another individual on social media. Trump and 18 others have been indicted in the state on a host of charges related to the 2020 election, and the conditions of the bond order will remain in effect until the case is resolved.
