    There have been rumors that Jack Smith has something up his sleeve since he presented an argument about Trumpā€™s claim of immunity. In it, he listed ā€œhypotheticalā€ crimes that could be committed where immunity couldnā€™t apply. Which is odd. Accepting a bribe, ordering an FBI director to fake evidence against a political foe, ordering the military to murder critics, and even selling nuclear secrets to a foreign enemyā€”these are the particular and peculiar crimes that prosecutors say Trump could get away with if he succeeds in arguing that presidential immunity.
