The Justice Department is evaluating how to close two federal criminal cases against President-elect Donald Trump, in accordance with the longstanding policy that a sitting president cannot be prosecuted.

Despite special counsel Jack Smith’s recent actions in the cases related to January 6 and classified documents, DOJ officials now acknowledge that no trial is feasible in the near future due to legal complications.
