(TheLastPatriotNews.com) – In a desperate effort to hurt Donald Trump ahead of his presidential inauguration, the Biden administration’s Department of Justice plans to release a portion of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into the president-elect’s alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election results.

According to leftist commentators, this release will undoubtedly stir debates about the integrity of our democratic processes, while the implications of these findings promise to be significant, affecting the political and legal landscapes.
Smith’s report is set to reveal key details of Trump’s efforts after the 2020 election.
While the complete findings remain undisclosed, parts focusing on alleged election interference will be made public.
The DOJ aims to maintain transparency, yet must balance this with legal considerations, particularly regarding ongoing cases involving Trump’s co-defendants.
The federal appeals court is considering a defense request to block report releases, pending charges against co-defendants linked to Trump.
One reason for this is the unfinished proceedings in the case of classified documents, which Judge Aileen Cannon has paused.
Attorney General Merrick Garland decided not to release the report volume concerning classified documents while investigations on Trump’s aides, Walt Nauta and Carlos de Oliveira, continue.

The Justice Department will keep findings on classified documents confidential, sharing them only with select Congressional leaders.
This limited disclosure is intended to “further the public interest in keeping congressional leadership apprised of a significant matter within the Department while safeguarding defendants’ interests,” KCCI reports.
Trump’s attempt to prevent the report’s release involves his co-defendants requesting a block on the grounds that it could prejudice their appeals.
Prosecutors, however, argue no basis exists to halt the release, suggesting the importance of public interest in transparency.
They highlight that Trump’s team is pushing to delay the report until Trump’s potential return to the White House.
Prosecutors maintain that Trump’s efforts to stop the report’s disclosure are unfounded. Trump’s communications director, Steven Cheung, criticized Jack Smith’s investigation, describing it as a series of “Witch Hunts.”
Meanwhile, Trump was indicted on charges related to the Capitol events on January 6, 2021, though the case was dismissed after his electoral success in 2024.
The ongoing DOJ debates and court proceedings underline the complexities in pursuing legal action against former presidents.
