Department of Justice to release details on Jack Smith’s investigation into attempts to overturn 2020 result but withhold Mar-a-Lago documents portion

The justice department intends to make special counsel Jack Smith’s report detailing his investigation into Donald Trump’s possession of classified documents available only to the chairmen and ranking members of the House and Senate judiciary committees, the Associated Press reports.

“This limited disclosure will further the public interest in keeping congressional leadership apprised of a significant matter within the Department while safeguarding defendants’ interests,” the department wrote in a filing to an appeals court that is weighing a request from Trump’s lawyers to block release of the report.
