Former President Donald Trump expressed outrage over a 165-page motion filed by Special Counsel Jack Smith detailing efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Trump posted on Truth Social, calling the unsealed document falsehood-ridden, unconstitutional, and a Democratic plot to interfere with the 2024 election. He reiterated these claims during an interview with NewsNation, calling the case a witch hunt and accusing the Department of Justice of weaponizing the government. The unsealed documents include Trump’s dismissive reaction to Mike Pence’s safety during the Capitol riots and his insistence to his family that they fight regardless of the election outcome.
