Jack Smith Seeks Dismissal of Trump's Election Interference Case

TL;DR Summary
Special counsel Jack Smith has dropped the federal election subversion case against President-elect Donald Trump, citing constitutional requirements for dismissal before inauguration. This decision follows a Supreme Court ruling granting Trump some presidential immunity, which delayed the trial. Trump, who has pleaded not guilty, views the dismissal as a victory against political weaponization of the justice system. The status of other cases against Trump, including those involving classified documents and state charges in Georgia and New York, remains uncertain.
