Special Counsel Jack Smith opposes Trump's claims of immunity in the classified documents case.

Special Counsel Jack Smith urges Judge Cannon to reject Trump's claims of immunity and other arguments in the classified documents case. Trump's defense team has argued that as a former president, the nation's laws and principles of accountability do not apply to him. However, Smith refutes these claims, emphasizing that Trump is attempting to justify lying to the government, concealing records, and obstructing the grand jury's investigation. The Special Counsel's response comes in response to Trump's four motions to dismiss the case, which seek to justify hoarding classified records at Mar-a-Lago and question the DOJ's ability to levy criminal charges.
