Agrees to plan to drop felony claims related to challenges to 2020 election results

For years, Jack Smith, appointed “special counsel” by officials in the Department of Justice to handle some of the Democrats’ lawfare cases against President Trump, has tried to put the former, and incoming, president in jail.
He’s now apparently giving up.
Just the News confirms Smith has filed a motion in court Monday to drop all four felony charges against Trump.
Trump reacted on Truth Social, stating: “These cases, like all of the other cases I have been forced to go through, are empty and lawless, and should never have been brought. Over $100 Million Dollars of Taxpayer Dollars has been wasted in the Democrat Party’s fight against their Political Opponent, ME.
“Nothing like this has ever happened in our Country before. They have also used State Prosecutors and District Attorneys, such as Fani Willis and her lover, Nathan Wade (who had absolutely zero experience in cases such as this, but was paid MILLIONS, enough for them to take numerous trips and cruises around the globe!), Letitia James, who inappropriately, unethically, and probably illegally, campaigned on ‘GETTING TRUMP’ in order to win Political Office, and Alvin Bragg, who himself never wanted to bring this case against me, but was forced to do so by the Justice Department and the Democrat Party.
“It was a political hijacking, and a low point in the History of our Country that such a thing could have happened, and yet, I persevered, against all odds, and WON. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
