Jack Smith makes bombshell new claims in latest filing in Trump 2020 election fraud case… including plots to ‘start riots’

Special counsel Jack Smith unveils stunning new evidence in his latest filing in Donald Trump’s Jan. 6 case, bringing up private conversations with top officials and lawyers who ridiculed his election fraud claims that he came from space.

The 165-page filing, which argues that Trump’s alleged conduct does not merit immunity under a new Supreme Court standard, views Trump’s as a private citizen’s plot to steal the election — and not as protected branch conduct of the government.

The 165-page dossier is filled with stunning episodes of Trump employees and allies trying to resolve fraud claims in disputed states.

According to the campaign official, on November 4, 2020, a co-conspirator identified as P5 attempted to “sow confusion” about the vote count at the TCF Center in Detroit.

When a colleague said a series of votes appeared to be heavily in Biden’s favor, the agent responded, “find a reason why it isn’t” and “give me options to file a lawsuit.”

A colleague said events could soon resemble the “Brooks Brothers Riot,” when House GOP aides and affiliates tried to stop the counting in Florida in the 2000 election.

“Let them revolt” and “Dot it!!!” the employee replied.

Smith’s team also provided details of a Nov. 7 campaign rally where aides told Trump he had only a “slim chance of prevailing.”

Trump quickly “sidelined” campaign staff and turned to CC1, a “private attorney prepared to falsely claim victory and knowingly spread false claims of election fraud,” the filing said.

The dossier calls Trump “the defendant” and says agents “spread lies that there was outcome-determining fraud in the election.”

The filing also details private interactions between Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence, who Trump said on Jan. 6 lacked “courage” for failing to refuse to count votes certified by states during the electoral count.

At a private lunch on November 12, Pence presented a “face-saving option” for Trump: “don’t give in, but realize the process is over.”

Then, at a luncheon on November 16, Pence attempted to encourage the defendant to accept the results of the election and run again in 2024, to which the defendant responded, “I don’t know, 2024 is so far away.”

Trump is now the Republican nominee for the 2024 election, and Pence has said he will not vote for him. Trump’s running mate, JD Vance, was confronted last night during the vice presidential debate with the question of whether Joe Biden had won the election. He refused to do this and changed the subject.

Relations between Trump and Pence would gradually deteriorate. On Jan. 1, Trump told Pence during a phone call that “hundreds of thousands” of people will “hate your guts” and “people will think you’re stupid.”

Smith’s team claims that Trump’s conversations with Pence, held at the White House, were unofficial and therefore protected because they were about his election prospects.

The information comes to light after Trump effectively filed immunity claims and postponed the case after being heard in Washington DC by US District Judge Tanya Chutkan.

Now the judge must decide which of Trump’s conduct is protected and which conduct, if any, can be tried under a new superseding indictment.

Trump’s lawyers tried to keep the material secret, arguing it was intended to hurt him in the election.

The stunning new filing comes just 33 days before the November election, in a race that experts consider a toss-up.

Even as he pushed outlandish claims about tens of thousands of dead people voting, people in Trump’s inner circle told him the ideas were out of left field.

A senior campaign adviser identified as P4 told Trump multiple times that his fraud claims were false. “If our legal research and campaign team cannot substantiate any of the claims made by our Elite Strike Force legal team, you can see why we are 0-32 on our cases. I will of course try to help on all fronts, but it’s hard to make sense of this when it’s all just conspiracy s*** being beamed down from the mothership,” the advisor said in language dripping with sarcasm.

It also describes a private attorney identified as CC1 – who appears to be by Rudy Giuliani – testifying before a Georgia House committee and “baselessly” accusing two election workers of passing off USB ports “as if they were vials of heroin or campaign.” Election workers were awarded $148 million in their defamation suit against Giuliani.

Trump continued to suggest he won the election during appearances in Wisconsin on Tuesday.

The filing sprinkles the story with Trump tweets, such as a December 5, 2020 tweet in which he wrote, “Why are these two ‘Republicans’ saying no? If we win Georgia, everything else will fall into place!” It came after a public and private pressure campaign against Georgia Governor Brian Kemp and Secretary of State Bradd Raffensperger.

The filing goes state by state and details Trump’s efforts in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and other contested states. Many of these same states are key battleground states this year.

A meeting with top Michigan lawmakers, which came after Trump asked former RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel, included a brutal rebuttal of Trump’s claim of fraud in Wayne County, which includes Detroit.

The official, then Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey, “corrected the defendant, telling him that he lost mainly because the defendant had underperformed in two routinely Republican counties with well-educated women, and if he got the same number of votes there If the two winning local sheriffs had gotten, he probably would have won Michigan.”

The Trump lawyer’s pressure continued, as CC1 contacted Michigan’s top legislative leaders “and attempted to pressure them to use the Michigan Legislature to overturn the valid election results.”

Trump blasted the filing in a post on his Truth Social site. He wrote:

“The release of this lie-ridden, unconstitutional J6 letter immediately after Tim Walz’s disastrous Debate performance, and 33 days before the most important election in our country’s history, is yet another obvious attempt by the Harris Biden regime to undermine and weaponize democracy. American democracy, and interfering in the 2024 presidential election. The deranged Jack Smith, the Harris-Biden DOJ’s handpicked prosecutor, and the Washington, DC-based radical left Democrats, are determined to continue arming the Justice Department in an attempt to stay in power. “TRUMP” is dominating the election cycle and leading in the polls, and radical Democrats throughout the Deep State are in total “panic.” This entire case is a partisan, unconstitutional witch hunt that should be dismissed in its entirety, just as the Florida case was dismissed!”
