Watch: Ex-federal prosecutor predicts Jack Smith will 'absolutely' indict 6 Trump allies

During an appearance on MSNBC's The Weekend," a former FBI general counsel urged the release of special counsel Jack Smith's final report on his investigation into Donald Trump stealing government documents and suggested it could contain "interesting details" that could have a bearing on one of his Cabinet picks.

Speaking with the hosts, Andrew Weissmann explained that he was interested in seeing what Smith found which could have a bearing on the nomination of Kash Patel to be the next FBI director.

"Basically on Monday, unless things change, the temporary stay that Judge [Aileen] Cannon issued is over," he began. "She shouldn't have even issued that with respect to either part of the report, but certainly the January 6th part is not a case that's in front of her."

"So by Monday, unless things change, we should see that report related to the January 6th investigation, and there could be interesting new details in that report," he continued. "With respect to the Mar-a-Lago part, the classified document part, I think that is something really worth keeping our eye on because there could be lots of information in there, not just about Donald Trump and why he did what he did, but also about Kash Patel, who is reported to have gone to the grand jury and has said that he was there when Donald Trump allegedly declassified everything."
