President Joe Biden's handling of classified documents is not even "remotely" similar to Donald Trump's "deceitful criminal conduct," special counsel Jack Smith said in a Monday brief.
Smith's team submitted the filing to challenge the former president's argument that he's being unfairly prosecuted by Biden-allied attorneys, Politico reports. In it, the prosecutors rebuked Trump's attempt to compare his conduct with the president's, whom special counsel Robert Hur chastised for retaining classified materials. Smith's team noted, however, that Hur's report also highlighted why only Trump is facing a bevy of criminal charges for his conduct.
