Special counsel Jack Smith resigned from the Department of Justice following the completion of his cases against President-elect Donald Trump. Smith resigned on Friday, according to a court filing that was submitted Saturday. Officials at the DOJ urged U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon not to extend the court order issued by her to block Smith's final report, according to Politico. The two cases that Smith oversaw were the so-called classified documents case and the federal election interference case.
