Summary
Special Counsel Jack Smith needs more time to prepare his legal response in his January 6 election interference case against President Donald Trump. Smith claims that the U.S. Supreme Court Justices' ruling to return the issue of presidential immunity to the lower courts has caused too much trouble for his legal team. The Sekulow team discusses Smith's attempt to buy more time, the latest 2024 presidential election polls between President Trump and Kamala Harris and the upcoming presidential debate on ABC News, the ACLJ's legal action on behalf of former U.S. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard – and much more.

| 0:49.2 | case brought initially remember by one of the January 6, those who were in prison, found guilty, |
| 0:56.1 | and he challenged one of his charges, and that was the charge that it was an obstruction of an official |
| 1:02.2 | proceeding, and the Supreme Court found that that was not in fact what that meant under the law so that a protest would not be an obstruction of an official proceeding and this was someone who actually entered in to the |
