Deep dives

Trump's indictments and the role of Jack Smith and David Weiss

The recent indictments against Donald Trump and the involvement of prosecutors Jack Smith and David Weiss are highly controversial. Many believe that Smith's decision to charge multiple individuals instead of focusing on the strongest case against Trump on the fake electors was a strategic error. Additionally, the New York Times report highlighting Weiss's handling of the Hunter Biden case has raised questions about his trustworthiness and raised concerns about potential political motives. The whistleblowers in the case and their claims have gained credibility with the revelation that Weiss had initially planned to not bring any charges until IRS whistleblowers came forward. The implication is that Weiss's decisions were influenced by politics and not solely based on the evidence. Republicans in Congress are likely to scrutinize these developments and seek further investigations, given the significant implications for the future of Trump and Biden's reputations.
