17. Jack Smith absolutely did not "leak" it.

Jun 2023

He gave the proof to the Trump defense. Cannon allowed media access to the unclassified evidence. CNN got it and released it.

It is not a leak. You don't understand how a Special Counsel works, nevermind Jack Smith. Nothing is "floating around" here.

Here's the Jack Smith team's motion timeline:

GOVERNMENT’S RESPONSE TO THE STANDING DISCOVERY ORDER

------JUNE 23 2023 -- 3 pre-trial prosecution motions
------------1) To delay Trump/Nauta’s trial to December 11, 2023; Judge Cannon wants a reason.

------------ 2) To file a sealed list of witnesses that Trump/Nauta are prohibited from speaking to about the case; Judge Cannon has ruled against sealing, in the public/media interest.

------------ 3) For a pre-trial conference under CIPA; Judge Cannon has set July 14 for pre-trial conference
