Election Interference Page 7

Tracking interference into our elections
In 2016, we had to worry about the Russians interfering in our elections. In 2020 we worried that the Russians would interfere again never did we think that the President of the Untied States would be the one inferring in our elections and attempting to steal the election. Some Republicans are now helping Donald J. Trump interfere with, subvert the law and the will of the people, and steal the election depriving 80,000,000 of their votes. Trump will fail in his attempt to steal the election however, the damage that he and his enablers have done to our democracy will be long lasting.

Republicans wanted answers. Democrats wanted transparency. What they got was a closed-door deposition that kicked off with a bombshell claim.

In a private interview on Capitol Hill with the House Judiciary Committee, former Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith said his team discovered “proof beyond a reasonable doubt” that President Donald Trump criminally conspired to overturn the 2020 election — testimony that GOP lawmakers have so far kept private.

Smith confirms evidence of criminal conduct
Smith told the committee that his team met the highest legal threshold when investigating Trump’s actions after the 2020 election.

According to Smith’s opening statement, which was obtained by outlets including the Associated Press and NBC News, there was prosecutable evidence Trump engaged in a “criminal scheme” to subvert his election loss — conduct that preceded the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Smith also said investigators uncovered “powerful evidence” that Trump broke the law by retaining classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Fla., and by obstructing government efforts to recover them.

“I made my decisions in the investigation without regard to President Trump’s political association, activities, beliefs or candidacy in the 2024 election,” Smith said.

He added that party affiliation would not have changed his approach, saying he would prosecute a former president “based on the same facts today … whether the president was a Republican or Democrat.”
