The special counsel’s team leading the classified documents case against Donald Trump argued that his lawyers have created an “inaccurate and distorted picture of events” after the former president’s lawyers said there was collusion between the special counsel’s office and the Biden administration.

In a 68-page court filing submitted on Feb. 2, special prosecutor Jack Smith’s team wrote that President Trump came up with “false narrative of the investigation’s origins” that, according to prosecutors, serves as a bid to cast a shadow on the investigation.
