So Jack Smith, according to a legal expert on CNN, namely Ellie Honig, who I believe

is really one of the best out there. I'm sorry, I said his name wrong, it's actually Ellie Honig, but he's one of the best out

there, one of the fairest. He says that the moves that Judge Cannon is making in this trial are making it increasingly

hard for Jack Smith to have this trial in time for the election and really making it

really hard for his case in general. So right now, he said Jack Smith should be very worried about what's going on

His case is in serious jeopardy. I believe it's a weak case to begin with, but I'm not an attorney

That being said, you know, a lot of presidents and vice presidents have held classified documents

We know that Joe Biden and Mike Pence are among them, but it goes back further than that

But Trump, Trump is the one they choose to prosecute. I believe they absolutely have a selective prosecution argument, but they also have several

different arguments like the Presidential Records Act argument. Now, Judge Cannon says she's not going to decide on that now, which really hurts Jack

Smith, because if she decided on it now, well, they could take that and appeal it

But by not deciding it now, deciding it in the middle of the trial, let's say, if they

try to present it as their defense, and she says, yeah, I'll allow that, he can't appeal

it until after, until after the decision. And at that point, it's too late, because if a man's found not guilty, you as the prosecutor

can't appeal. And if he wins, why would he appeal it? So it really, it really puts him in a tough situation

I want you to watch Mr. Honig describe it and tell you what's going on. And then please, as always, like, comment, share, and subscribe

I always like to hear your thoughts on this stuff. I'm Carmine Sabia for Explain America

We love you guys. God bless you. Take care, everybody. Where does this leave the timeline of this case, Ellie

Well, a mess, in short. It was already, I think, no way that this case was gonna get tried before the election

And now I think we have other pending issues. There is the question that Jim just alluded to about whether Jack Smith might try to go

to an appeals court and force the judge's hand. I actually think what the judge did today forecloses that, makes it impossible to do

that, because the judge said, well, we're gonna decide when the trial happens, and maybe

it's something that will go to the jury. You really can't appeal that if you're Jack Smith

And by the way, Bri, this is why I think Jack Smith is concerned with today's ruling

Although he won in the sense that the court did not dismiss the charges, if I'm Jack Smith

and I think Smith feels the same way, I'm very worried about this defense going to a

jury because it's confusing, because it's complicated, because it's technical. And prosecutors always want to tell a simple, straightforward story

And frankly, defendants want to muck things up. As much as I think this defense lacks merit, I do think it could confuse a jury in a way

that would worry me as a prosecutor. Yeah, that may be the case

We may have heard the last of Mandamus, at least for the time being, however

And for that, we may be thankful. Eli Honig, thank you so much. Appreciate it

Thanks, Bri
