Chicago Tribune: Our case for Joe Biden over Donald Trump
Donald Trump on Friday questioned the special counsel’s authority in investigating him in connection with his efforts to overturn the 2020 election – and said he'd already been tried and acquitted of the crime.
In a social media post, he suggested his acquittal in the 2021 impeachment by the Senate precludes Jack Smith’s probe.
Trump earlier this month received a letter from the special counsel’s office indicating he’s the target of the probe and is likely to be indicted.
“How can Deranged Jack Smith bring a case on January 6th., as ridiculous as it is anyway, when I have already won such a case, and been fully acquitted, in the U.S. Senate?” Trump asked on his Truth Social website.
“In other words, I was Impeached on this, and WON!!! ELECTION INTERFERENCE & PROSECUTORIAL MISCONDUCT, all rolled up as one. We are truly a Nation In Decline!”
