CNN —Revelations that special counsel Jack Smith has been digging into efforts to overturn former President Donald Trump’s Arizona election loss in 2020 bolster growing indications that his investigation is nearing a critical point.
Smith has already made Trump the first former president to be formally accused of federal crimes.
But a flurry of details about Smith’s inquiries into alleged election-stealing efforts suggest his investigators have had an industrious summer.
He said he talked about a call that he had with Trump and Giuliani after the election, and a second call just from Trump.
Prosecutors were also set to talk to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, CNN reported in June.
