Revealed: New bombshell filing contains interviews with Trump intel officials

Late Saturday special counsel Jack Smith's office submitted a 45-page filing that contained the results of extensive interviews with senior intelligence officials who worked under Donald Trump, all of whom undercut his claims of outside 2020 presidential election interference.

According to a report from Politico's Kyle Cheney, the filing is designed to put a halt to the former president's legal team's fishing expedition to "access a broad swath of classified intelligence as part of his defense against charges that he conspired to subvert the 2020 election."

Part of Trump's defense, after being accused of trying to overturn the 2020 election results, is based, in part, on his contention that there was foreign interference.

Writing in the filing, senior assistant special counsel Thomas Windom bluntly stated: "The answer from every single official was no.”

More importantly, Cheney wrote, the filing exposes the wide swath of officials who have provided information and guidance to Department of Justice investigators.

According to the report Trump’s “former DNI, former acting secretary of DHS, former acting deputy secretary of DHS, former CISA director, former acting CISA director, former CISA senior cyber counsel, former national security adviser, former deputy NSA, former chief of staff to the National Security Council, former chairman of the Election Assistance Commission, presidential intelligence briefer, former secretary of Defense and former DOJ leadership” were questioned if there was any evidence that foreign or domestic agents interfered with the election totals to which the answer was none.

"Saturday’s filing adds to a collection of data points that reveal the extraordinarily wide aperture of Smith’s investigation," wrote Politico's Cheney.
