President-elect Donald Trump released a personal statement on social media Monday afternoon, in response to the news that Special Counsel Jack Smith had moved to drop the two legal cases he had launched against Trump.
Smith filed requests on Monday, asking a judge to dismiss TWO federal cases he had brought against Trump – the ‘January 6 election interference’ case, and the ‘classified documents’ case.
The dismissal requests were made due to a long-standing Justice Department policy that prohibits the prosecution of a sitting president.
Later Monday afternoon, U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan officially dismissed both the ‘election interference’ case and the appeal of his ‘classified documents’ case.
Trump responded with the following statement:
These cases, like all of the other cases I have been forced to go through, are empty and lawless, and should never have been brought. Over $100 Million Dollars of Taxpayer Dollars has been wasted in the Democrat Party’s fight against their Political Opponent, ME. Nothing like this has ever happened in our Country before.
They have also used State Prosecutors and District Attorneys, such as Fani Willis and her lover, Nathan Wade (who had absolutely zero experience in cases such as this, but was paid MILLIONS, enough for them to take numerous trips and cruises around the globe!), Letitia James, who inappropriately, unethically, and probably illegally, campaigned on “GETTING TRUMP” in order to win Political Office, and Alvin Bragg, who himself never wanted to bring this case against me, but was forced to do so by the Justice Department and the Democrat Party.
It was a political hijacking, and a low point in the History of our Country that such a thing could have happened, and yet, I persevered, against all odds, and WON. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
These cases, like all of the other cases I have been forced to go through, are empty and lawless, and should never have been brought. Over $100 Million Dollars of Taxpayer Dollars has been wasted in the Democrat Party’s fight against their Political Opponent, ME. Nothing like…
