Major setback for Special Counsel Jack Smith as Jan. 6 Riot inquiry is hampered by US Federal Appeals Court.
In order to protect the constitutional immunity of GOP lawmakers, the court refuses access to phone records.
According to Politico, Smith requested access to Perry’s correspondence with colleagues and Executive Branch representatives. However, there is a provision that shields Congressmen from legal prosecution as they carry out their obligations as elected representatives.

Smith unveiled Trump’s grand jury indictment on a recent episode of “The Five,” and Watters referred to him as a “nervous wreck” while reminding viewers of Smith’s problematic legal past before the U.S. Supreme Court.
Smith was successful in getting a four-count indictment against Trump for his attempts to challenge the 2020 election results. The accusations include making false statements and conspiring to obstruct justice, among other things.
Prosecutor Smith recently obtained a 37-count indictment against former President Trump and Carlos De Oliveira, a maintenance worker at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in Florida, in a surprising development. The accusations are the result of a careful study into claims involving secret papers. Keep checking for additional information on this important legal dispute.
“That was Special Counsel Jack Smith, who looked like a bedraggled nervous wreck, dripping with anger and highly emotional,” Watters remarked after playing a tape from Smith’s news conference announcing the fresh accusations earlier in the day.
“The last time Jack Smith charged a politician, the case was so weak, it got tossed out of the Supreme Court unanimously. The Biden Justice Department is using obscure federal statutes to put a former president in prison for the rest of his life,” Watters told viewers.
The prosecution’s successful conviction of Virginia’s former Republican governor Bob McDowell for receiving gifts has been overturned by a Supreme Court decision.
“These charges are not bribery, not assault, not tax evasion, not sex trafficking. They’re charging Donald Trump under the Act of 1866,” Watters said. “It was used against the [Ku Klux] Klan, and now they are using it against Trump.”
Trump vehemently denies all accusations, maintaining his innocence, and makes a comparison between the indictments and election tampering.
