Special Counsel Investigates Trump's Foreign Business and Obstruction Case.
TL;DR Summary
Special counsel Jack Smith has issued a subpoena for records of business deals that former President Trump’s company made with seven countries since he took office in 2017. Smith requested information on real estate and development deals that the Trump Organization had with China, France, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and Oman. The subpoena seems designed to uncover any potential financial motive for Trump to keep the documents at Mar-a-Lago. Smith is also investigating Trump’s role in the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection on the Capitol.
