class=\"key-facts-element\">\n<p>It\u2019s unclear how much new information the report will include, given that much of Smith\u2019s evidence against Trump has already been made public through court

House documents.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"key-facts-element\">\n<p>While special counsels\u2019 reports are directed to the attorney general rather than the public, per the federal statute,

Smith also has an appeal of Trump\u2019s documents charges still pending in federal appeals court, after Trump-appointed U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the case, and he has not yet given any indication to the court in that case about how he plans to proceed. Another complicating factor that will drag out how long it takes for Smith\u2019s report to come out is the fact it will have to be reviewed by intelligence agencies for classified information. That process took weeks for Hur\u2019s report, the Times notes, and Politico <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2024\/11\/06\/trump-jack-smith-exit-strategy-00188108\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"color-link\" title=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2024\/11\/06\/trump-jack-smith-exit-strategy-00188108\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2024\/11\/06\/trump-jack-smith-exit-strategy-00188108\" aria-label=\"points out\">points out<\/a> that could be an especially arduous process when it comes to Smith\u2019s coverage of the documents investigation, as that concerns numerous classified documents Trump took back to Mar-a-Lago.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">When Will Jack Smith Resign?<\/h2>\n<p>Sources cited by the Times weren\u2019t sure how long Smith planned to stay at the Justice Department before he ultimately leaves: While his goal is to leave before Inauguration Day, the Times notes those plans are still in flux and there could be \u201cunforseen circumstances\u201d like last-minute court rulings that keep him around longer. As it stands now, Smith is trying to \u201cfinish his work and leave\u201d before Jan. 20 and has \u201cno intention of lingering any longer than he has to,\u201d sources familiar with Smith\u2019s plans told The Times.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">What Will The Report Say?<\/h2>\n<p>While it remains to be seen what Smith\u2019s final report will say, the special counsel has detailed through numerous court filings how prosecutors believe Trump committed crimes by spearheading efforts to overturn the 2020 election and allegedly withholding White House documents.

You have to fight like hell.\u201d He and his co-conspirators, who weren\u2019t indicted, undertook a number of efforts trying to change the results, including pressuring state lawmakers and then-Vice President Mike Pence, and orchestrating a \u201cfake electors\u201d scheme in which GOP officials submitted false slates of electors to Congress, according to prosecutors. Trump also allegedly took little action to stop his supporters from rioting Jan. 6, with Smith alleging Trump watched the attack on the Capitol building play out on TV from the White House dining room while drinking Diet Coke. When an aide told him Pence had to be moved to a secure location, Trump allegedly replied, \u201cSo what?\u201d In the documents case, prosecutors allege Trump took White House records back to Mar-a-Lago with him and then intentionally refused to turn them over to the government. Trump knowingly concealed classified documents from being turned over in response to a government subpoena, Smith alleges, employing aides to move documents so his lawyer wouldn\u2019t find them.

Trump has pleaded not guilty to the charges against him and has long decried his criminal cases as \u201cwitch hunts\u201d designed to harm his presidential campaign and railed against Smith, calling
