Summary

Special counsel Jack Smith’s report asserts sufficient evidence existed to convict Donald Trump for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election but cites Trump’s 2024 presidential victory as the reason charges were dropped, due to constitutional protections for sitting presidents.

Smith detailed Trump’s actions, including pressuring officials, spreading false election claims, and encouraging protests.

While charges against co-conspirators were considered, no final conclusions were reached.

Smith denied political bias, emphasizing adherence to facts and law.

The report also references challenges like expanded presidential immunity.

    Well great job dragging your asses and never getting this out in time to save the USA. Now we get at least 4 more years of terror, hopefully we’re all still here after.

      TBH I’m not sure how would this “obviously political witch hunt /s” affect elections. It could go the other way you’d expect.

        Not with a lot of the modern GOP. They’re fully convinced the “establishment” is out to get each and every one of them, personally, and Trump being accused of interfering in an election is just fuel on that fire.
