A federal judge dismissed the case against former President Donald Trump, raising questions about the appointment of Special Counsel Jack Smith in the investigation into classified documents.

Judge Aileen Cannon, who was appointed by Trump, cited constitutional concerns over Smith’s appointment, leading to the dismissal of the case.

Special Counsel Smith had contested the argument, pointing to previous court decisions upholding the constitutionality of such appointments.

Trump praised the dismissal, calling for other cases against him, including those related to the 2020 election, to be dropped.

In a statement on Truth Social, he claimed the Democrat Justice Department orchestrated the cases as a political attack against him.

Trump’s legal team declined further comment while the Justice Department did not immediately respond to the dismissal.

The case dismissal comes amidst a backdrop of political tension and ongoing legal battles involving key players and entities such as the White House, Justice Department, and Supreme Court.
