CNN legal analyst Elliot Williams on Thursday said that it appears that special counsel Jack Smith is leaving no stone unturned in his probe of Trump’s efforts to illegally remain in power after losing the 2020 election to President Joe Biden.
In particular, Williams argued that Smith’s thoroughness can be evidenced by his recent interview with Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, which suggests that the special counsel has not been limiting his probe to just one or two swing states.
“They have spoken to people in Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, and now Michigan,” said Williams. “What I am seeing is a pretty broad national conspiracy touching on any aspect of election meddling or election interference. They could be building one massive case, the mother of all election conspiracy cases, that could be charged in any one jurisdiction bringing in evidence of all the others… it’s pretty vast!”
Olivia Troye, a former national security adviser to Vice President Mike Pence, said that Smith’s latest interviews appear to show that his investigation is nearing its conclusion and that charging decisions could be made soon.

“I think they’re getting close to wrapping it up, hopefully,” she said. “I think they need to move forward. I think they’re now talking to people who are really there at the front lines of it from 2020, being bullied and intimidated by these individuals.”
