Another item I had forgotten -- "On October 8, 2019, U.S. president Donald Trump presented Meese the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor in the United States."
I don’t get excited about anything that seems to sound like a positive for Trump.
If there’s one thing we should have learned by now, it’s that that every institution in this country can come up with a reason to deny Trump justice for whatever reason or no reason at all: no standing, didn’t file argument in time, no merit, he has orange skin, whatever.
A pro-Trump argument? Baseless. Anti-Trump, no matter how preposterous? Bring it on.
Which court is this?
Ed Meese ... as in Ronald Reagan’s Attorney General Ed Meese?
So then Biden will just appoint Smith (and then it’s legal).
Trump will need to force him to be replaced and all evidence discarded and make the other new Special Prosecutor reinvestigate from ground 0 to make this have a difference.
Prayer for Mr. Meese’s continued health.

True patriot Mr. Meese. Thank you. there are also arguments that the 14:3 was changed.
Like the way he shot down the Reno Regulation and the Garland Memo.
Well that is interesting.
The Conclusions are even written in plain understandable English....

“Not properly clothed in the authority of the federal government, Smith is a modern example of the naked emperor. Illegally appointed, he has no more authority to represent the United States in this Court, or in the underlying prosecution, than Tom Brady, Warren Buffett, or BeyoncĂ©. That fact is sufficient to sink Smith’s prosecution of Defendant, and the Court should vacate the decision below and order that the prosecution be dismissed. We express no views on the substantive issues addressed in the parties’ briefs.”
We can't keep spelling out "X Formerly Known As Twitter"!

Devil’s Advocate for a moment:
If the claim is based on fraud because Trump knew there was no fraud in the vote, then his defense would be to introduce the evidence of fraud in the vote upon which he made is representations. Other cases (there are many) have dismissed the claims of fraud based on a lack of standing for the accuser. Trump has standing to assert it as part of his defense.
If the case is thrown out because Smith had no authority, then the evidence of the fraudulent election will never see the light of day through its introduction as evidence in Trump’s trial. The merits will never be reached.
The public will continue to deny fraud in the election.
Is Meese providing cover for the deep state to give them an out so that the real truth of the fraud will never be seen?
Just wondering.

That says it all!
"Who the hell woke 92-year-old Ed Meese up?Where was he and these Schaerr Jaffe co-filers when they were needed during Mueller?
The Amicus is (now proven) rock-solid, which makes their absence during TrumpI even more pernicious.
Schaerr Jaffe is a boutique white-shoe K Street firm that boasts former Trump OMB counsel Paoletta, and Eugene Volokh as an "academic affiliate" whatever that is lofl.
Oh but wait, Gene Schaerr signed off on this. Smart guy -- a former Scalia clerk and BushI Associate Counsel to the President.
So this is all about the Bushes preserving Poppy's vision of the Unitary Executive, not about helping Trump."
