Had Donald Trump gone to trial for his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election results, he would have been found guilty.
At least that’s what prosecutors believe.
Join the JBN+ WhatsApp GroupOn Tuesday, Special Prosecutor Jack Smith released his final report detailing how Trump committed multiple felonies based on handwritten notes from former Vice President Mike Pence, 250 voluntary witness interviews, 55 grand jury testimonies, and dozens of search warrants.
Behind closed doors, Trump allegedly berated Mike Pence as “too honest” to challenge the results, told his family “you still have to fight like hell” even after admitting defeat, and asked a staffer in disbelief, “Can you believe I lost to this f’ing guy?” after spotting Biden on television.
“The throughline of all of Mr. Trump’s criminal efforts was deceit — knowingly false claims of election fraud — and the evidence shows that Mr. Trump used these lies as a weapon to defeat a federal government function foundational to the United States’ democratic process,” Smith’s report states.
Messages showed former DOJ official Jeffrey Clark confiding to Rep. Scott Perry that a highly classified briefing on foreign election interference “yielded nothing” to support fraud allegations. Multiple individuals acted as “fake electors” who attempted to cast electoral votes for Trump after the 2020 election. When these people were later interviewed by investigators, they admitted they would not have participated in this scheme “had they known the true extent of co-conspirators’ plans.”
Prosecutors made strategic decisions about which charges to pursue. They opted against insurrection charges, acknowledging they lacked direct evidence of Trump’s “intent to cause the full scope of the violence that occurred on January 6.”
The report also details how prosecutors planned to dismantle each of Trump’s potential defenses. If he claimed to be following legal advice, they would show his lawyers were co-conspirators. If he invoked First Amendment protection, they would demonstrate how his statements were used to obstruct an official proceeding and voting rights.
Whether true or not, due to longstanding Justice Department policy preventing the prosecution of sitting presidents, the case was dropped following Trump’s reelection in November.
“The Department’s view that the Constitution prohibits the continued indictment and prosecution of a President is categorical and does not turn on the gravity of the crimes charged, the strength of the Government’s proof, or the merits of the prosecution, which the Office stands fully behind,” the report concludes.
“Indeed, but 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 resigned Friday after submitting his report to Attorney General Garland. While Volume One addressing the January 6 Capitol riot was cleared for release by Judge Aileen Cannon, Volume Two covering the classified documents case at Mar-a-Lago remains sealed due to ongoing appeals involving Trump’s co-defendants Walt Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira.
As Trump prepares to take office again on January 20, Smith’s certainty in the President-Elect’s guilt will remain just that.
His own.
Jack Smith can now climb back into his Eagle Scout Boy Scout uniform for performing like a trained seal following trainers commands. It will benefit NO ONE but it will scar an honorable man for life
Poor Jack Smith. Imagine the effrontery of those deplorables in rejecting his carefully crafted web of lies concocted by the establishment elite.
Democracts cheating in 2020? What is that called?.No one investigates them?
