Jack Smith is a deranged mentally unstable lawyer hack, not unlike a Michael Cohen. There are thousands of them.

Oh it’s far worse then striking out.

He was reversed 9-0 in Gov McDonnell’s case. They criticized him ruthlessly for his ‘expansive” interpretations of the law that pushed all boundaries.

The guy is a mad psychopath. He skews all of his writing to include conclusionary statements asserting that something is either illegal or already proven when it is factually not.

How a partisan loose cannon like that keeps his job is beyond me. Think they sent him to Europe to hide him.

Contrast this nutcase - and he really is a psych job - with the ponderous, slow foot dragging of the Durham “investigation” which resulted in absolutely nothing: not one indictment save the hapless Clinesmith knuckle rap.

Mad Jack should end up disbarred for life. If they can do that to Giuliani or Eastman, they can sure as hell do it to this guy. And his so-called boss.

“I don’t think smith has to worry about getting indicted by merrick garland or the doj”

When Trump is re-elected it will no longer be Merrick Garland’s DOJ.

” It is merely a cut and paste from the Jan 6 select committee. It isn’t intended to survive a legal challenge. Its only purpose was to get the Devon Archer testimony out of the headlines”

Now that is really the right answer.

Gotta admit, the Communists go all out to play defense.

‘I want you to assemble peacefully and patriotically’

That’s recorded seen by millions the supreme court will have a easy case for Trump.

This may be Jack Smith’s last job.

Biggest mistakes are the last one

:::::Indicted by who exactly?:::::

It would have to be an extra-special, special counsel appointed in a special way to go after the very special Special Persecutor Jack "Torquemada" Smith, who was obviously told he was "a special boy" by his mommy way too many times.

A prosecutor in a future Trump administration could justly indict Jack Smith. He is as crazy as Mike Nifong was in the Duke stripper rape case, abandoning the constraints of law and facts and the proper role of a prosecutor out of a determination to get an indictment and vex the defendants.

Dershowitz, like him or hate him, is once again showing his cruise-missile-like ability to find the target. Garland and Smith etc. are engaging in election interference.

He said “may be indicted.” Obviously won’t be the case if a rat or RINO is installed as POTUS in 2025, or if Trump or DeSantis is POTUS in 2025 and the RINOs or a possible rat senate majority torpedo his pick for AG.

It is a growing trend to be selective in what is told and repeated. Statements and allegations hardly ever come out anymore as whole cloth truth. This is the very same as a lie.

“DeSantis is POTUS in 2025”

You do realize that suggestion is strictly forbidden on Free Republic right?

You have just opened yourself up to everything from hateful childish name calling to a voodoo curse. 😏

A DC Grand Jury. Any guess as to how many DC residents hate Trump?

Not saying this is likely, and I expect to vote for Trump, even if I have to write it in, but what if Trump had a severe health problem and died or withdrew. I would rather have DeSantis than Biden or somebody from the dems’ evil bench. And if such a thing happened, I don’t think I would be the only one.

Hung, drawn, and quartered would be preferable.

Years ago, I worked in a unit of a state attorney general office defending criminal convictions on appeal. Even now and then, one came across a dishonest, mad dog prosecutor who was so focused on winning and who relished the sense of power that he obtained convictions that could not properly be defended on appeal. The system usually weeded those kinds of prosecutors out, but they could do a lot of damage in the meanwhile, especially when a trial judge is compliant.

Jack Smith is just that type. The give away is that he has a history of getting indictments for conduct that is not normally considered criminal and which has clearly valid defenses. Also, the judge and the jury pool are obviously hostile to Trump and Republicans in general, so the chance of an invalid conviction is considerable. In such cases, vindication in the appellate courts always comes late, often so late that a defendant's life has been unjustly destroyed.

Under current law, prosecutors have broad immunity from civil and criminal law when they are acting within their role as prosecutors. Jack Smith and the Garland Department of Justice though seem to have gone over that edge in indicting Trump. They ought to be impeached and removed now and prosecuted later in a Trump administration.
