Summary

In a win for former President Donald Trump, the U.S. Supreme Court on Friday declined special counsel Jack Smith’s request to fast-track his Jan. 6 case. 🇺🇸 Epoch Times 25¢ Sale: https://ept.ms/RomanSale1

This means that, almost certainly, the timetable that Mr. Smith was shooting for—getting the trial started one day before Super Tuesday—has now been thrown out the window. The reason this matters is because the Jan. 6 trial that Mr. Smith is pushing for in Washington is not about the facts of the case. With a D.C. jury pool, it’s pretty much a given that President Trump will be found guilty. And so instead, this is a race against time.

that Jack Smith is pushing for over in Washington, D.C.

0:49.4

It's truly not about the facts of the case.

0:51.5

With a Washington, D a Washington DC jury pool,

0:53.8

well, it's pretty much a given that almost no matter what

0:56.2

President Trump will be found guilty.

0:57.8

And so instead, this is a race against time,

and Jack Smith knows that.

1:02.1

That's why Jack Smith and his team of federal prosecutors have been so adamant about starting the trial on March 4th, one day before the Super Tuesday primary elections.
