Fox News reports:
U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia Judge Tanya Chutkan unsealed Smith’s 165-page filing Wednesday afternoon. The filing lays out his case and the alleged evidence he intends to use in an eventual trial against Trump.
Trump pleaded not guilty to all charges brought by Smith.
But Trump blasted the Justice Department Wednesday evening.
“For 60 days prior to an election, the Department of Injustice is supposed to do absolutely nothing that would taint or interfere with a case,” Trump posted in all capital letters to his Truth Social. “They disobeyed their own rule in favor of complete and total election interference.”
“I did nothing wrong, they did!” he continued.
DOJ practice during an election year has often been to hold off on major actions in cases that could impact elections during the 60 days leading up to Election Day, an unwritten policy commonly referred to as the “60-day rule.” The “rule,” which is really more of a tradition because it is not an actual rule, has been cited many times in recent years.
“The case is a scam, just like all of the others, including the documents case, which was dismissed!”
Trump was pointing to the other case Smith brought against him related to classified records. The case was tossed out by a federal judge in Florida who ruled that Smith was unlawfully appointed as special counsel.
The former president further blasted Democrats, saying they are “weaponizing the Justice Department against me because they I know I am WINNING, and they are desperate to prop up their failing candidate, Kamala Harris.”
Trump said the unsealing of the Smith filing, which he called the “latest ‘hit job,’” happened because his running mate, Sen. JD Vance “humiliated” Harris’ running mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz during Tuesday night’s vice presidential debate.
Trump said the Justice Department “has become nothing more than an extension of Joe’s, and now Kamala’s, campaign.”
President Trump fires back:
Jack Smith is completely delusional. Absolutely NOTHING he says or does to Trump will DO ANYTHING to sway voters!

Lest we forget, Smith tampered with the evidence:
Since Jack Smith is in the news, evidence tampering is a third-degree felony, punishable by 2-10 YEARS IN PRISON!
Jack Smith TAMPERED WITH EVIDENCE & brought incriminating PROPS to the Mar-a-Lago raid.
Jack Smith must be ARRESTED!
Sure would be a shame if everyone shared this! pic.twitter.com/WDg88O5SLy
