Robert Costa: Jack Smith has a sprawling case against former President Donald Trump. [View all]

CBS correspondent Robert Costa said his sources revealed that special counsel Jack Smith has a more "sprawling" case against Donald Trump than previously thought.

..................

"Based on our reporting at CBS News, the special counsel has phone records," he explained. "He has memos and diary entries from key witnesses, like former Vice President Mike Pence, key eyewitness testimony from people who are inside the Oval Office with Trump."

"But they had something in the special counsel's office the January 6th Committee never had, which is subpoena power to really go deep with witnesses and not just get public testimony and some depositions," he added. "They've gone deep. And I've talked to people who participated in this investigation as lawyers, sometimes even as witnesses."

"And it's evident to me, based on my conversations with sources, that Jack Smith has a sprawling case against former President Donald Trump," he concluded.
