Pour one out for Jack Smith.
After two years of fawning press coverage and promises that the international war-crimes prosecutor would finally put Donald Trump behind bars, the special counsel today hammered the final nail in his own battered coffin by dropping his four-count J6-related indictment in Washington against the incoming president.
The move represents yet another failure by the Democratic apparatchik who once ran the Department of Justice’s public integrity unit under the Obama administration. Since then, Smith has been on a losing streak unmatched in DOJ history, suffering one loss after another before the Supreme Court and trial courts; in 2016, SCOTUS unanimously overturned the bribery conviction of Bob McDonnell, the former Republican governor of Virginia, a case Smith brought in 2014. Smith also failed to secure convictions in his prosecutions of former Senator John Edwards in 2012 and former Senator Robert Menendez in 2015.
This year, the highest court rebuked Smith on three separate occasions. First, the court rejected Smith’s rarely-used and desperate request to bypass the D.C. appellate court in considering the presidential immunity question and decide the matter quickly in an attempt to get the J6 case to trial before the election. The court a few months later reversed how the DOJ applied 18 USC 1512(c)(2), the post-Enron document destruction statute that represented two of the four counts in the J6 indictment against Trump. And on July 1, the court issued its landmark opinion in Trump v US, which gutted the J6 case by concluding most of the conduct cited in the indictment represented official acts protected by presidential immunity.
If the DOJ had a Hall of Shame, it would be named after Jack Smith.

There needs to be some serious retribution over Jack Smith’s actions.
Disbarment/imprisonment/deportation.
This shit needs to be shut down hard and send a message not to do this again.
Somebody had better grab that little f*ck Jerk Smith BEFORE he leaves the country!!!
He needs to be Avenatti’d.
I fear that the end of these weaponized prosecutions will cause Trump’s people to feel they “have won,” and persuade Americans the problem is gone
far from it.
As soon as woke Democrats return, the DOJ will swing even harder into Stasi tactics.
Jack Off needs to be severely prosecuted and the stuffings beat out of him. How DARE he...
Smith now joins a long list of people that have locked horns with the Orange Rhino and lost.
It’s called the “Suckers & Losers Club.”
True concern.
They must be driven out of power completely.
Removed.
It is a victory for Trump and justice only if all chsrges sre dismissed with prejudice so those charges can never be refiled.
It was dismissed without prejudice so it can be revived in 2029. The only way to stop it is to try Smith and Chutkin for the actual crimes they committed in trying to railroad President Trump and place them in prison.
‘’Fegelein, Fegelein, Fegelein!’’.
I’m lovin’ it.
All the tick-tock talk. Hope the new DOJ actually goes after these guys.
Make an example of him so no one does it again.
The election process must be cleaned up or the “progressive” tyrants WILL return.
“deportation.”
I hate to rebut a fellow Texan but.....
He was born in the U.S.A. as far as I can determine. Deportation is out of the question.
Exile is still on the table...
