“Donald Trump’s effort to assemble false slates of presidential electors in 2020 may wind up shielding special counsel Jack Smith’s case from a Supreme Court ruling that could sharply narrow the obstruction law at the heart of the indictment against the former president,” Politico reports.

“Smith argued Monday that even if the justices agree with a recent challenge — brought by several defendants charged with obstructing Congress’ work on Jan. 6, 2021 — the charges against Trump relying on the same law would still survive.”

“It’s Smith’s first indication that he isn’t sweating the Supreme Court’s impending decision in the obstruction case, which the justices agreed to take up in December and has often been cast as one of the greatest threats to the case against Trump.”
