The special counsel, who led the classified documents and 2020 election obstruction cases into Trump, stepped down on Friday.

The special counsel Jack Smith’s report reveals a perfect storm of systemic failure. The Supreme Court’s expansion of presidential immunity and outdated Justice Department policies have made overwhelming evidence irrelevant — because the accused regained power.

The first part of former Special Counsel Jack Smith’s report on his now-closed investigations into President-elect Trump was released Tuesday, days before he will be sworn into office.
