"Special Counsel Rejects Trump's Attempt to Halt Election Subversion Case"

Special counsel Jack Smith's team opposes former President Donald Trump's request to halt proceedings in the Jan. 6 case, urging the court to deny the request and maintain the March 4 trial date. Smith's prosecutors have disclosed their access to more than a dozen senior former Trump administration intelligence officials, revealing that they asked if any votes were flipped by voting machines in the 2020 election, with every official responding no. This filing is in response to Trump's request for access to classified information relevant to his defense in the case. Trump has pleaded not guilty to charges of attempting to overturn the election results and subvert democracy.
