Special counsel Jack Smith stated in a 26-page brief filed on Wednesday that the alleged crimes directly threaten the foundation of American democracy. He described Trump’s actions as an attempt to maintain power and prevent the rightful winner of the 2020 presidential election from assuming office. “The urgent need to address those charges promptly is strong,” he stated. The ex-president has requested the Supreme Court to temporarily halt the prosecution to allow for further appeals, potentially allowing him to instruct the Department of Justice to drop all federal cases against him if he regains the presidency later this year. Trump is contending to the Supreme Court that his false claims of election fraud, which led to the Capitol insurrection in January, are the reason he should be granted this request. On January 6, 2021, the decision to maintain his position of power was considered an official presidential action that protects him from prosecution. He states that he cannot be charged for his actions because the Senate did not reach the two-thirds majority required to convict him during the impeachment trial. Additionally, he contends that the Founding Fathers originally planned for presidents to have complete immunity. These arguments were previously dismissed by both trial judge Tanya Chutkan and a panel of three judges from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. The appellate court decided that the case would go back to Chutkan for trial unless the Supreme Court granted a postponement while reviewing Trump’s request. Supporters of Trump took part in a rally in Washington in January.
