Special Counsel Jack Smith has changed his approach in his efforts to expedite hearings in his Washington, D.C., case against former President Donald Trump.
Smith requested the hearings to identify which of Trump’s alleged actions he could include in his election interference case against the former president.
The Supreme Court’s July 1 ruling, granting presidents partial immunity for official actions taken while in office, prompted Smith to adjust his strategy.
Before Smith backed down from his latest push to fast-track the increasingly unstable case, Judge Tanya Chutkan had scheduled fall hearings to determine which of Trump’s actions could be prosecuted as official acts.
That determination will now occur after the election — if it occurs at all.
Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung issued a statement:
The Comrade Kamala Harris-Crooked Joe Biden witch hunts against President Trump have imploded just like their failed campaign and should all be dismissed in light of the Supreme Court’s historic decision on immunity and other vital jurisprudence.
It is now abundantly clear to everyone that dangerously liberal Democrats like Kamala Harris weaponized the justice system against their chief political opponent in order to interfere in the election.
The lies of the liberal lawfare pursuit of President Trump have blown up spectacularly.
President Trump’s team will continue to fight and defeat the hoaxes at every turn. Only President Trump and JD Vance can save our Constitution and Make America Great Again.
Chutkan is expected to outline the next steps during a hearing on September 5.
Smith’s case against Trump in Chutkan’s court continues to face obstacles. A Florida court has already ruled that his appointment was unconstitutional.
If Trump wins the presidency, both Smith’s case and his appointment are likely to be terminated.
