This Week In Lawfare Land: Incoming SCOTUS Decisions Could Hamstring Jack Smith
[Federalist] Following the criminal trial in Manhattan, the legal proceedings against President Trump have slowed to nearly a halt.

The next major developments will likely be the U.S. Supreme Court’s decisions in two Trump-related cases. In one, the justices are weighing the extent of presidential immunity from prosecution; in the other, the court will rule on whether an evidence-tampering statute was misapplied when used to bring "obstruction of an official proceeding" charges against Jan. 6 defendants. Notably, Special Counsel Jack Smith has brought the same kind of charge against the former president.

Here’s the latest information you need to know about each case.

#4 If they ignore the Supreme Court, the entire Potemkin village of federal power gets shaken very fast. Why should we follow federal direction, if the government itself is no longer playing by the rules? Also the Supreme Court will become more likely to rule against a rogue administration in other cases. In short, they will skirt around the edges of any ruling. They will not defy the Supreme Court. The Dems will talk about packing the court after the ruling, but they don’t have the votes in the Senate to confirm justices.
