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.”
Yeah, I knew about the McConnell and co shenanigans with the Supreme Court, and I understand why Obama did what he did and why Biden offered him the job. Garland just fucked it up so unbelievably bad. Democrat highroading needs to stop right now, but they never seem to learn their lessons.
What would you consider his worst decision? Probably running for a second term (at first) and thereby not letting a primary happen right?
Probably easiest to say running for a second term.
But for me, it was caving to republican pressure to “secure the border”.
I don’t know why Democrats have such a hard time learning that the Republicans will NEVER negotiate in good faith. He gave in too much.
