Jack Smith Just Unsealed 165 Pages on Trump — While the White House Eyes the Fed
Jack Smith's 165-page J6 brief unsealed; Trump eyes Federal Reserve control; DOGE claims $757M saved; DHS funding held hostage over voter ID bill.
HIGH ALERT
A 165-page federal indictment brief, a potential Fed power grab, a DHS funding hostage situation, ongoing Iran military action, and DOGE calling for congressional arrests — this is one of the more consequential news cycles of the year, with multiple high-stakes threads running simultaneously.
Key Developments
Picture this: it's Easter week, the markets are rattled, troops are in the Middle East, and a 165-page legal bomb just dropped on the sitting President of the United States.
**Jack Smith isn't done with Donald Trump.**
Judge Tanya Chutkan unsealed a massive brief from Special Counsel Jack Smith — 165 pages, partially redacted — laying out how much of the original January 6th election case can survive the Supreme Court's 2024 immunity ruling [46].
The revised indictment keeps all the original charges intact.
But it narrows the focus — specifically cutting out Trump's conversations with the DOJ, which the Supreme Court ruled are shielded as official acts [43].
Everything else? Still on the table.
Think about what that means: **a sitting president is simultaneously managing a military conflict with Iran, threatening to withhold federal funding from colleges, holding DHS hostage over a voting bill — and fighting off a superseding federal indictment** that's been restructured specifically to survive his own Supreme Court immunity win [44].
That's not a normal week. That's not even a normal presidency.
