Fox News
Former President Trump’s attorneys filed a “powerhouse" motion on Thursday calling for a federal judge to hold Special Counsel Jack Smith in contempt of court for allegedly “repeatedly violating" a stay order in his 2020 election investigation.
"The Stay Order is clear, straightforward, and unambiguous," Trump attorney John Lauro wrote in the filing Thursday. "All substantive proceedings in this Court are halted. Despite this clarity, the prosecutors began violating the Stay almost immediately." Brooke Singman is a political correspondent and reporter for Fox News Digital, Fox News Channel and FOX Business.

Lauro said within the first five days of the court pausing proceedings, Smith’s team "served thousands of pages of additional discovery, together with a purported draft exhibit list."
