— Zonkey July 18, 2023 CNN is praising Jack Smith for the intentional optics of being filmed going to Subway today. They don’t even hide that this is all just a TV show.Smith, appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland in November, has led a multipronged investigation for almost eight months. Smith secured an indictment before a Florida grand jury last month, charging Trump on 37 counts concerning his handling of classified records and alleged efforts to obstruct that investigation.
An indictment of Trump, who is leading the polls for the Republican 2024 presidential nomination, would mark the third time this year Trump would face federal charges. The former president was indicted in Manhattan in April and in June when he pleaded not guilty to federal charges over his handling of classified documents after leaving the Oval Office.
