According to judge papers released on Friday, Special Counsel Jack Smith, who prosecuted Donald Trump over alleged crimes involving the mishandling of classified records, resigned from the Department of Justice.  ,

Smith may very well be the last” special counsel” or” special prosecutor” in history. Going up to Special Prosecutor Leon Jaworski, who investigated the Nixon administration, the visit of these strong, unexplained lawyers has been challenged by leaders.
A Trump-appointed prosecutor, Aileen Cannon, ultimately ruled that the company was unconstitutional. According to Cannon, appointing Smith was unlawful under the constitution’s provision allowing the Attorney General to assign an outdoor special counsel without the Senate’s approval.  ,
It’s a contentious legitimate argument that other Supreme Courts and judges have ignored. Attorney General Merrick Garland is appealing Cannon’s decision, and whether or not the recent Supreme Court accepts Cannon’s logic is dangerous. The remaining will consider the United States to be over and over and irretrievably lost in the event that it does.  ,
Smith’s departure was expected, but not at this stage. Since several of his lawyers were assisting in that case, it was thought he might continue practicing long enough to see whether the special counsel’s interview was upheld or denied.
The question is then whether and when Smith’s report on the “election usurpation” cases and the classified documents will be made public. Smith has now promised to Congress that this trip they will be able to study the small on classified documents. Judge Cannon wants to read the various document to see if there is any clash with the situation involving classified documents.  ,

After Trump announced his candidacy plan, Garland appointed Smith to get over the papers and election subterfuge studies in November 2022. Smith, a former federal prosecutor, previously worked for the Hague as a counsel for war crimes.
In both investigations in 2023, he charged Trump, but both trials ended in lawful difficulties, and the president-elect was exempt from both instances as a result of voters ‘ choice to returning Trump to the White House.
The Supreme Court’s ruling over the poll subterfuge situation, which set a very high standard for prosecuting former presidents for their official acts in office, is one of Smith’s findings.
Trump and his political allies in Congress have previously pledged to look into matters involving the specific guidance investigations and associated investigations, including the blatantly unnecessary search of Trump’s Mar-a-Largo farm using large numbers of FBI agents who appeared to be armed.
Smith had remarkable authority to look into matters that were beyond the scope of any criminal act he believed to have been committed by Trump under the special counsel act.  ,
The report likely acts as Smith’s last word on what his studies found, and their legal argument. Aside from the latest court battle, there are other ways the review could be made public. The Congress may take measures to obtain the document or data from it. Additionally, it’s possible that calls for Freedom of Information Acts and legal action may force the release of information.
Walt Nauta and Carlos DeOliveira, two of Trump’s former co-defendants, argue that the document should not be made available to Congress or the general public because it would be detrimental in the event that an appeals court reinstates the case against them, which was dismissed by Judge Cannon on the grounds that Smith was unconstitutionally appointed.

Specific lawyers have all gone rogue in some way or another and overstepped their demands. The Constitution’s appointment clause makes it both necessary for Congress to impose the terms of any prosecutor’s appointment, or it should be done firmly.  ,
