A US judge dismissed the case accusing Donald Trump of trying to overturn his 2020 election defeat after prosecutors requested its withdrawal. Justice Department policy prohibits prosecuting a sitting president, leading to the decision. Judge Tanya Chutkan's order ends federal efforts to hold Trump accountable for actions tied to January 6 Capitol attack and alleged classified document retention.
