Nearly half of America’s state attorneys general today joined with former President Donald Trump in asking the U.S. Supreme Court to delay his Washington, D.C., trial on Jan. 6 charges until the high court rules on his presidential immunity case.

In an 18-page brief, the officials argued that special counsel Jack Smith is trying to speed up his case in hopes that a guilty finding will derail Trump’s campaign to win back the White House and keep President Joe Biden in office.
