Jack Smith requests court intervention to prevent Trump from making allegations regarding FBI assassination conspiracy

Special counsel Jack Smith asked a judge Friday to order former President Donald Trump to avoid producing any more claims that FBI agents were “complicit in a plot to assassinate him.”

Court filings allege Trump’s statements this week exposed FBI agents involved in the case “to the risk of threats, violence, and harassment.” Trump made accusatory statements about the authorization for federal agents to use deadly force if necessary while executing a warrant to search Mar-a-Lago.

In the new court filing, Smith asked U.S. District Judge Aileen M. Cannon “to make clear that [Trump] 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,” saying a warning from the court 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.”

If approved, it’d mark yet another documented restriction of Trump’s communications on the trial.

The request came in response to statements from Trump, such as a fundraising appeal that said “Biden’s DOJ was authorized to shoot me!”

Rep. Marjorie Taylor-Greene (R-GA) echoed similar sentiments earlier this week.

“The Biden DOJ and FBI were planning to assassinate Pres Trump and gave the green light,” Greene tweeted.

His filing notes that prosecutors contacted Trump’s lawyers but his lawyers “do not believe that there is any imminent danger, and asked to meet and confer next Monday.”

Trump is preparing for closing arguments Tuesday in his New York hush-money trial, and recently held a campaign event in the South Bronx.
