Justice Dept. Smith Report Says Trump Was Going Down, David Cay Johnston 1/14/25

The Mark Thompson Show

Had Attorney General Merrick Garland moved faster, there’s a pretty good chance that now President-elect Donald Trump would be facing serious consequences in the 2020 election interference case. The report by Special Council Jack Smith was released early today and indicates that Smith had enough evidence to convict Trump. Smith also writes that Trump‘s reelection and Constitutional protections for presidents make it impossible to move forward with the prosecution of that case. Smith also wrote that evidence shows the January 6th Capitol attack was Trump’s doing.
