Smith believes the government can prosecute any of us for rejecting official ‘truths.’
Jack Smith, the special prosecutor who attempted to put President Trump in prison for acknowledging that the 2020 election was tainted by fraud, testified before the House Judiciary Committee the week before Christmas. Here are the video and transcript of his deposition. Smith’s testimony is disturbing because his argument in favor of prosecuting the president boils down to this: (1) Every sensible person knows that Joe Biden won the 2020 election. (2) For President Trump to pretend otherwise reveals that he is knowingly telling a “lie.” (3) By using this “lie” to undermine the 2020 election results, Trump committed fraud against the U.S. government and the American people.
Consider how dangerous this line of reasoning is. Essentially, Smith claims to believe that certain “truths” cannot be disputed. In the case of the 2020 election, if enough certified “experts” in the press claim that something is “true,” then anybody who claims to believe otherwise is maliciously spreading a “lie.”
When it comes to the 2020 election, however, many things about Joe Biden’s supposed “victory” never made sense. For starters, President Trump won almost every bellwether county — areas whose voters routinely choose the winner — across the nation. After the press “officially” called the election for Biden (four days after America’s putative Election “Day”), The Epoch Times pointed out an “intriguing phenomenon”: For forty years, “19 counties in the nation have always voted for the winner, be it Republican or Democrat.” In 2020, eighteen of those nineteen counties voted for President Trump by an average margin of sixteen points! The one county that went for Biden is in Washington state, and Joe’s margin was a measly three points.

The desire to create a crime of “election interference” is misguided and very dangerous.
Letting would-be officeholders campaign for votes, and letting existing officials count the votes, involves and always has involved sharp elbows and shady practices. That is inherent to the system, and cannot be changed without dictatorial powers. The famous “Mr. Dooley” told the truth when his creator had him say, “politics ain’t beanbag”.
THAT IS WHY choice of the President was vested in State Legislatures, each acting independently of the others, with each Legislature appointing special voters (”electors”), by whatever means they see fit.
It just so happens that all 50 existing Legislatures use idiots voting as the method by which they appoint their electors, at least under normal circumstances, but Article II and Amendment XII give them perfect freedom to have all people voting, some people voting, or no people voting as the part to chusing electors.
“Yet we do know more.”
Yeah and the more we learn, the more we know that will or can be done about the voting fraud. While the red states are making valiant attempts to cleanup voter fraud, the blue (and soon to turn blue) states are doing the exact opposite. This will result in blue wave after blue wave elections.
There are basically four requirements to vote in our elections:
1. Be a United States citizen
2. Reach the age of majority (18 years)
3. Not having been convicted of a felony (except some states ignore this)
4. Not be mentally incompetent (also ignored by some states)
We currently have at least 13 states that don’t require ID or proof of the above to vote. And, in some states (including my home state of Washington) it is now ILLEGAL to request ID to vote.
Yeah, we know more and mostly know that we are no longer headed for a cliff, we’ve already fallen off.
Patel this, Bondi that, Comer investigations will in absolutely no indictments, prosecutions, convictions or confinements . . . ever . . .
Saw a video clip a couple of days ago of this guy and his arrogance. Breathtaking.
Sergeant Donny Donowitz needs to have “speaks” with Nazi Jack.
With a REAL GOOD tune-up, first.
Falling down the scaffold steps 20 or 30 times...
Maybe someone should remind him the fate of tyrants.
Yes the hunt is endless many players involved.

“If ‘everybody knows’ such and so, then it ain’t true, not by ten thousand to one.” From the Notebooks of Lazarus Long by Robert Heinlein.
That makes better sense than anything Jack Smith may say.
(Doesn’t ‘Jack Smith’ sound like the weakest cover identity ever? John Doe sounds more likely.)
