Former aides to Donald Trump are facing trial in Wisconsin over their involvement in a scheme related to the 2020 election, with a judge allowing the case to proceed despite allegations of judicial misconduct from the defendants. The court has seen multiple hearings as the prosecution moves forward, with two former Trump associates confirmed to stand trial on felony forgery charges. A Dane County judge has been asked to step aside from the case but has refused. Meanwhile, Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson has requested intervention from the Justice Department regarding the judicial conduct in the case. As legal challenges mount, the proceedings mark a significant moment in the ongoing scrutiny of election-related actions from 2020.
