BREAKING: Jack Smith Officially Concedes, Files Motion To Dismiss Trump Charges

DOJ Moves to Dismiss Case Against President-Elect Trump

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has filed a motion to dismiss federal charges against President-elect Donald Trump, citing constitutional protections that prevent the indictment and prosecution of a sitting president. Trump, who won the 2024 election, will be inaugurated on January 20, 2025.

Special Counsel Jack Smith stated the dismissal is temporary, allowing prosecution after Trump’s term. The case stems from allegations of interference in the 2020 election certification. The motion reflects tensions between upholding the rule of law and constitutional limits on presidential prosecution.

The DOJ relied on longstanding legal opinions that prosecuting a sitting president undermines the separation of powers and presidential duties. The case could resume after Trump leaves office, with equitable tolling addressing statute of limitations concerns.

If approved, the charges will be paused, keeping the possibility of future prosecution open.
