Summary
Donald Trump’s lawyers are seeking to block the release of special counsel Jack Smith’s final report on two prosecutions, claiming it could harm the presidential transition and be seen as a political act.
The report is expected to include damaging details about Trump’s alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election and hide classified documents.
Trump’s legal team has requested that Attorney General Merrick Garland fire Smith and defer handling the report to Trump’s incoming attorney general.
Smith plans to resign before Trump’s inauguration, but the report’s release remains “imminent.”
Garland still can. If he’s really loyal to this country, he’d release it.
Then the appeals go the other way, on whether the DoJ was really allowed to release it. But the important bit is already done.
Garland is a coward, loyal to himself/GOP
Of Biden’s many mistakes, I think Merrick Fucking Garland was the worst.
