This Week In Lawfare Land: Incoming SCOTUS Decisions Could Hamstring Jack Smith
[Federalist] Following the criminal trial in Manhattan, the legal proceedings against President Trump have slowed to nearly a halt.

The next major developments will likely be the U.S. Supreme Court’s decisions in two Trump-related cases. In one, the justices are weighing the extent of presidential immunity from prosecution; in the other, the court will rule on whether an evidence-tampering statute was misapplied when used to bring "obstruction of an official proceeding" charges against Jan. 6 defendants. Notably, Special Counsel Jack Smith has brought the same kind of charge against the former president.

Here’s the latest information you need to know about each case.
