Nonilex<p>[post election] Smith dropped <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> as a party in [the <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/ClassifiedDocuments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClassifiedDocuments</span></a>] case, &amp; the <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/DOJ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DOJ</span></a> is continuing…w/the 2 co-defendants. Because longtime Trump employees Waltine Nauta &amp; Carlos De Oliveira could still go to trial, Smith said in the filing Tues that he would not release that portion of the report &amp; risk violating their rights.
<br>The litigation against the co-defendants is unlikely to conclude before Jan 20, which means it would fall to Trump’s DOJ to decide what to do w/the report [🗑️].</p>
Nonilex<p>In response, the <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/DOJ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DOJ</span></a> asked the <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/11thCircuit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>11thCircuit</span></a> US Court of Appeals in Atl on Tues AM to overturn <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/AileenCannon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AileenCannon</span></a>’s order.<br>
Acc/to the request, the <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/SpecialCounsel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SpecialCounsel</span></a> turned over the report on Tues PM to Garland, who decides what portions of the report should be released publicly.</p><p>Prosecutors say the report is 2 volumes.
