The report outlines Trump’s actions, including spreading false claims of election fraud, pressuring the Justice Department, and inciting the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot. It emphasizes that these actions constituted an “unprecedented criminal effort” to disrupt the democratic process.
Despite challenges such as executive privilege claims and social media influence, Smith defends the integrity of the investigation, stating that his team “stood up for the rule of law.” He also dismisses claims of political influence, asserting that the inquiry was conducted independently.
A second volume of the report, focusing on Trump’s handling of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago, remains undisclosed due to ongoing legal proceedings.
In response, Trump criticized Smith on his Truth Social platform, calling him “a lamebrain prosecutor who was unable to get his case tried before the Election” and asserting his innocence.
