    And correct me if I’m wrong, but none of this is yet related to January 6, that’s still to come, right?

      Yes and no. This is the Georgia election interference case, but there are aspects of it that will pop up in the January 6 trial, notably the conspiracy to halt the counting of electors by posting fake electors in multiple states (including Georgia).

      Jack Smith was assigned to work on Trump’s potential involvement in January 6, along with Mar a Lago documents, and any related crimes found along the way. So far he’s charged for election interference attempts leading up to J6. He still hasn’t made any incitement or seditious conspiracy charges just yet and may choose not to for whatever reason.

      There’s still enough that Trump is kinda legally megafucked as it is.
