Special counsel Jack Smith has withdrawn a subpoena demanding records from Save America PAC, indicating a scaling back of part of his inquiry.

Special counsel Jack Smith addresses reporters after announcing new charges against former president Donald Trump on Aug. 1. Special counsel Jack Smith has withdrawn a subpoena seeking records about fundraising by the political action committee Save America — a group that is controlled by former presidentand whose activities related to efforts to block the results of the 2020 presidential election have come under investigation, people familiar with the matter said.

Save America was still working to gather all of the records sought in the subpoena when it was notified by Smith’s office that the demand for information had been withdrawn, two of the people familiar with the matter said. The federal indictment of Trump filed in August, which charged him with four counts related to alleged obstruction of the 2020 election, does not refer specifically to Save America.

A subpoena withdrawal doesn’t mean that a case is closed or that investigators’ interest in the subject has ended, but it does indicate that prosecutors no longer think the information they once demanded is necessary for their work. Nothing preventsFour people with knowledge of the investigation said prosecutors had not asked questions about fundraisingOne unanswered question in the D.C.
