Скачать или смотреть The Real Story of Jack Smith and the Trump Prosecution | Carol Leonnig

Pulitzer Prize–winning investigative reporter Carol Leonnig details the dramatic sequence that shaped the federal cases against Donald Trump.

After Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Special Counsel Jack Smith, Smith moved at extraordinary speed — bringing indictments in both the election interference and classified documents investigations faster than many legal observers expected.

Smith even sought an expedited ruling from the Supreme Court of the United States on Trump’s immunity claims, hoping to prevent delays that could push a trial past the election cycle.

But the Court declined to fast-track the case — even as it expedited a separate Colorado ballot dispute involving Trump.

Leonnig explains why that moment proved pivotal, how it altered the legal timeline, and what it meant for the possibility of accountability before voters headed to the polls.

This is a critical look at speed, delay, and the institutional decisions that shaped one of the most consequential legal battles in modern American history.
