BlockBeats News, November 26th, according to CNN, U.S. Special Counsel Jack Smith said on Monday that he will dismiss the election overturn case against President-elect Trump and is seeking to dismiss the case in a court filing.
Trump had previously stated that once he took office, he would fire Smith, breaking with past norms regarding special counsel investigations. In a six-page document, Smith wrote, "It is the position of the Department of Justice that, pursuant to the requirements of the Constitution, this case should be dismissed before the defendant is sworn into office."
Smith's criminal pursuit of Trump over the past two years, on charges of attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election and his mishandling of classified documents, marks a very unique chapter in American history: never before has a former White House occupant faced federal criminal charges.
