Trump's Co-Defendants Seek to Block Imminent Release of Jack Smith's Two-Volume Report
Jan 7, 2025, 03:01 AM
Donald Trump's former co-defendants in the Florida classified documents case, Walt Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira, have filed an emergency motion with Judge Aileen Cannon to block the release of a two-volume final report by Special Counsel Jack Smith. The motion argues that Smith lacks the authority to issue the report, as his appointment was ruled unconstitutional by the court. Additionally, Trump's legal team has urged Attorney General Merrick Garland to remove Smith and block the report's release, claiming it would be a politically motivated attack. The report, which Trump's lawyers have reviewed for three days, is expected to be critical of several incoming Trump officials and X's handling of a search warrant related to Trump. The report's release is considered imminent and also addresses the election interference case, with Trump's team labeling Smith an 'unconstitutional prosecutor.'
