Donald B. Ayer, Philip Allen Lacovara, and Dennis Aftergut: Jack Smith Should Be Investigating Trump’s Current Election Conduct

WE’VE BEEN HERE BEFORE. The pre-election public record is full of clues—flashing red lights, really—that Donald Trump is preparing to try to steal the vote again if he loses. The Justice Department should
