New news from CNN and elsewhere:
Former President Donald Trump said in a social media post that he’s been informed by special counsel Jack Smith that he is a target of the criminal investigation into efforts to overturn the 2020 election, a sign he may soon be charged by the special counsel..
“Deranged Jack Smith, the prosecutor with Joe Biden’s DOJ, sent a letter (again, it was Sunday night!) stating that I am a TARGET of the January 6th Grand Jury investigation, and giving me a very short 4 days to report to the Grand Jury, which almost always means an Arrest and Indictment,” Trump posted on Truth Social.
Maybe lawyers and those closely following can say more about what “4 days to report” means. Does he have to report by Thursday, or is this a formality and he can decline to report?
Anyway… it seems that Burner #3 is getting active. Trump on trial for his responsibility for the Jan 6 violent insurrection and attempt to literally and physically overthrow the election (and possibly kill several political leaders).
I really thought Georgia would hit first in the indictment sequence but now it could be either one, or both, within the coming month.
