Special counsel Jack Smith
Jack Smith, the special counsel who led two federal criminal cases against Donald Trump, is expected to leave the Justice Department before the president-elect takes office.
The timing would allow Mr. Smith to leave his post without being fired by Trump or his eventual attorney general.
If his exit goes to plan, Mr. Smith would leave without either of his criminal prosecutions of Trump – over the alleged improper hoarding of classified documents and an alleged attempt to interfere in the 2020 election outcome – seeing trial.
His team is reportedly winding down its work, as Trump's election renders the cases all but finished.
