Special counsel Jack Smith’s report on his election subversion and January 6, 2021, investigation of Donald Trump can be made public, a federal appeals court ruled Thursday, while leaving in place a lower judge’s three-day hold that could give Trump time to ask the Supreme Court to intervene.

A federal appeals court denies a bid to block release of special counsel Jack Smith’s report on Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss.

The judges left in place a lower-court injunction that bars the disclosure of the report for three days, and the Justice Department then appealed it.
