Jack Smith Seeks Order Barring Trump From Criticizing Law Enforcement Over Deadly Force Authorization for Mar-a-Lago Raid

Special Counsel Jack Smith filed a motion Friday night demanding President Trump's condition of release in the classified documents case be modified to include barring him from criticizing law enforcement for authorizing deadly force in the August 8, 2022 raid on Trump's Mar-a-Lago home in Palm Beach, Florida in a search for disputed alleged classified documents from Trump's presidency.

Trump reacted to the news of the deadly force authorization on Tuesday by saying the government had plans to kill him.

Introduction to Smith's motion: The Government moves to modify defendant Donald J. Trump's conditions of release, to make clear that he may not make statements that pose a significant, imminent, and foreseeable danger to law enforcement agents participating in the investigation and prosecution of this case.1 The Government's request is necessary because of several intentionally false and inflammatory statements recently made by Trump that distort the circumstances under which the Federal Bureau of Investigation planned and executed the search warrant at Mar-a-Lago.

Smith complained in a footnote that Trump had reposted a meme on Truth Social Friday: The Government has contacted counsel for defendant Trump, who stated that they object to the Motion and the timing of the conferral on a holiday weekend; it is their position that the Government has not provided an opportunity for meaningful conferral.

Within just the last few hours, Trump has continued to issue false statements smearing and endangering the agents who executed the search.

How a Faith-Based Company is Changing the Way Americans Protect Their Retirement The FBI and Attorney General Merrick Garland have claimed this was standard procedure for a search warrant but have yet to explain why the government was prepared for a bloodbath at Trump's home over a document dispute.

TGP reported Trump posted on Truth Social and sent out a campaign email Tuesday night.
