Today, Special Counsel Jack Smith released his highly anticipated report on the investigation into Donald Trump’s alleged interference in the 2020 presidential election. The findings shed light on the strength of the evidence compiled by Smith's office and address accusations of political bias leveled by Trump and his allies.
According to the report, Smith’s team determined that, “If it were not for Mr. Trump’s election and imminent return to the presidency, the office assessed that the admissible evidence was sufficient to obtain and sustain a conviction at trial.”
Smith also directly responded to Trump’s claims of political influence over the investigation, stating, “My office had one north star: to follow the facts and law wherever they led. Nothing more and nothing less. To all who know me well, the claim from Mr. Trump that my decisions as a prosecutor were influenced or directed by the Biden administration or other political actors is, in a word, laughable.”
