DOJ to Wind Down Two Trump Criminal Cases Before He Takes Office: NBC Report
Nov 6, 2024, 06:40 PM
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is moving to wind down the two federal criminal cases against President-elect Donald Trump before he takes office, according to an NBC report. This decision aligns with the longstanding DOJ policy that a sitting president cannot be prosecuted. Special Counsel Jack Smith, who has been overseeing the cases, is expected to be removed from his position. The DOJ aims to ensure that the dismissal of the classified documents case does not go unchallenged, despite the need to conclude the cases.
