Former President Donald Trump categorized special counsel Jack Smith as an arm of President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign through a recent filing in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case.

Since early February, the government, the defendants, and even the judge overseeing the case have been locked in a battle over the public release of a wide batch of discovery materials. The government aims to keep those documents entirely under lock and key. Meanwhile, the defense and the judge want those documents — including the names of government witnesses and the FBI code name of a separate investigation — to be released with minimal redactions.

Trump’s eight-page filing was submitted Friday in response to the government’s Feb. 8 motion for reconsideration. In that prior motion, Smith accused the court of making a “clear error” and facilitating “manifest injustice.” The order mandating the release of the disputed discovery materials was paused in response to the special counsel’s motion. Defense attorneys were given until Feb. 23 to respond.

Trump says U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon got the law correct in ordering the release of the documents — while ridiculing Smith’s other arguments as an affront to the law and transparency.
