Donald Trump will soon receive controversial information from Special Counsel Jack Smith after the judge overseeing the former president’s criminal case over classified documents stashed at Mar-a-Lago, Judge Cannon, ordered the prosecutor to deliver the data.
Earlier on Friday, Cannon paused deadlines in a controversial order that special counsel Jack Smith had condemned as a “clear error” in the ex-president’s classified document case, according to court records and reports. Earlier this week, Cannon ordered Smith to deliver to her by Friday proposals for unredacted FBI interview witness reports that could appear on the public docket.
Smith warned about threats to people involved in the case, causing the earlier pause. But later on Friday, Cannon said the information still must be delivered to Trump and other defendants in the case, including Walt Nauta, according to the court docket.
That’s enough for Smith to request she’s taken off the case
He can request it, but it has little chance of happening at this point
He just needs to appeal the decision. The appeals court will overrule her, again, sanction her, again, and probably remove her from the case as it is apparent that she is not acting impartially.
