Jack Smith seeks delay on deadlines for Trump's Jan 6 case
Just the News ^ | 8/8/24 | Misty Severi

Special counsel Jack Smith on Thursday requested more time to consider how former President Donald Trump's January 6 case can move forward, after the Supreme Court gave Trump a major victory last month.

The Supreme Court ruled that presidents and former presidents are exempt from prosecution when it comes to core presidential actions, and presumptive immunity for other official acts.

“ What is Smith up to now?”

The supreme court should grant Smith a delay.

A permanent delay.

It means they do not know what to do at this point. In fact, it all seems pointless because the entire prosecution goes away once Trump wins. If Kamabla wins, she may even go for the “Kamabla the Merciful” play and pardon him (knowing the prosecution could not win after the immunity ruling).

Since smith has already been judged to not be a legitimate special prosecutor, when does Trump sue for harassment?

Seeking a delay to speed things up?

The Meritless Garland and his RICO crew are busy burning the midnight oil.

It is a shame they cannot act in the best interests of the country instead.

He should be arrested for impersonating a government official.

Most of our Pols don’t have the best interests of our country, including the Pubs,It is not why many of them run for office, they’re very much in it for themselves.

I dunno. Smith has a lot to overcome in a short amount of time. My guess is he thinks moving forward so close to the election would help Trump win so he is biding his time.

He should be arrested for impersonating a government official and executing a collusive scheme with AG Garland and other senior Biden Administration personnel to spend taxpayer money illegally.
