Special Counsel Jack Smith’s report on President-elect Donald Trump’s 2020 election interference case is one step closer to being made public after a federal appeals court’s ruling Thursday, Jan. 9. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit rejected a bid to block the release but kept in place the judge’s order for a three-day delay, giving time for additional appeals.

Trump pleaded not guilty to the charges, and the election interference case was eventually dismissed following his victory in November’s presidential election due to a Justice Department policy that forbids the prosecution of a sitting president.

Attorney General Merrick Garland has said he plans to release the report to the public once he is permitted to do so. In response, Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung said in a statement Thursday night it’s time for Garland and President Joe Biden to “do the right thing and put a final stop to the political weaponization of our justice system.”

SPECIAL COUNSEL JACK SMITH’S REPORT ON PRESIDENT-ELECT DONALD TRUMP’S ELECTION INTERFERENCE CASE IS ONE STEP CLOSER TO BEING MADE PUBLIC — AFTER A FEDERAL APPEALS COURT RULING on THURSDAY.

THE U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE 11TH CIRCUIT REJECTED A BID TO BLOCK THE RELEASE BUT KEPT IN PLACE THE JUDGE’S ORDER FOR A THREE-DAY DELAY – GIVING TIME FOR ADDITIONAL APPEALS – MEANING DONAL TRUMP, IF HE CHOOSES, COULD SEEK THE U-S SUPREME COURT’S INTERVENTION IN THE MATTER.

TRUMP PLEADED NOT GUILTY TO THE CHARGES. BUT THE ELECTION INTERFERENCE CASE WAS EVENTUALLY DISMISSED FOLLOWING HIS VICTORY IN THE NOVEMBER PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION – DUE TO A JUSTICE DEPARTMENT POLICY THAT FORBIDS THE PROSECUTION OF A SITTING PRESIDENT.

ATTORNEY GENERAL MERRICK GARLAND HAS SAID HE PLANS TO RELEASE THE REPORT TO THE PUBLIC ONCE HE IS PERMITTED TO DO SO.

IN RESPONSE – TRUMP SPOKESPERSON STEVEN CHEUNG SAID IN A STATEMENT THURSDAY NIGHT — ITS TIME FOR GARLAND AND PRESIDENT BIDEN TO QUOTE “DO THE RIGHT THING AND PUT A FINAL STOP TO THE POLITICAL WEAPONIZATION OF OUR JUSTICE SYSTEM.” END QUOTE
