Special counsel Jack Smith has filed a court filing to reject Donald Trump's claim of immunity from prosecution on charges related to his alleged plot to overturn the 2020 election. The filing argues that Trump's defense threatens to set a precedent allowing presidents to commit crimes to remain in office, contradicting separation-of-powers principles and legal precedent.
