Bombshell revelations have emerged in the case against former President Donald Trump as special counsel Jack Smith released a detailed 165-page filing in the election interference case. Smith argues Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election were part of a personal campaign, not actions taken in his role as president.

The document lays out new evidence, including notes from former Vice President Mike Pence, that link Trump directly to the conspiracy to overturn the results in several key states. The filing addresses Trump’s claims of presidential immunity, stating the efforts were privately motivated and not tied to official duties.

One revelation within the filing shows a campaign staffer allegedly texting an operative to “make them riot” outside a Detroit vote-counting center as early as Nov. 4. Another looks at team Trump’s strategies to continue to push election fraud conspiracies.

Trump has denied the charges and claims they are politically motivated.
