Former President Donald Trump 's latest bid to have the Mar-a-Lago documents case against him dismissed as both “untimely and without merit” Now, the special counsel’s office argues that the retread claim was made far too late — and in violation of binding precedent in the D.C. Circuit .

The government says the defense simply waited too long to make their present argument.

The motion suggests Smith was only appointed as part of a first -ditch political effort by the Biden administration to hamstring the Democratic Party’s foremost bête noire.

Smith dedicates two footnotes to Trump 's political arguments.

The first footnote reads: As in prior filings, the defendant repeats several false claims that the Government has acted with “bad-faith partisan bias”.
