JACK SMITH’S TEAM IS ALREADY PREPARING FOR TRUMP’S ‘RETRIBUTION’
Rolling Stoned ^ | 12/25/24 | ASAWIN SUEBSAENG

Posted on 12/27/2024 12:11:17 PM PST by hardspunned

Donald Trump was elected to a second term on a promise to exact his “retribution.” So it’s no wonder that federal investigators and others who worked with Special Counsel Jack Smith’s office are taking the president-elect at his word.

According to two sources with knowledge of the matter and a former Justice Department official, several attorneys and staffers who were on the special counsel’s Justice Department team, or had done work for its criminal investigations into Trump, have already sought legal counsel or retained personal lawyers — in case the former and now future president and his incoming administration follow through on his desire to probe or even prosecute his enemies.

There never was a truer statement than “Donald Trump was elected to a second term on a promise to exact his “retribution.””’and we had better get it this time.

Republicans have to start living up to their promises or they’re done.

Just send in one man with a subpoena for EVERYTHING.

The first one to sing gets the deal. The rest get prison.

As long as Smith and Goons did not BREAK THE LAW, then they have nothing at all to worry about.

Come to think of it, why are they lawyering up then?

If they didn’t do something wrong ware are they seeking sought legal counsel?.

These DOJ clowns can't afford to live anywhere near Georgetown. They have to live out in Reston and commute on the Metro. That's one of the reasons they hate Trump so much and why they must maintain their bubble of self-importance and arrogance - because they have nothing else going on.

As we saw with Peter Strzok, his marriage was a sham, he was banging his colleague, and he was trained in the DC game of watching all the bureaucrats around him, evaluating everyone's relative hierarchical position, what the MSM was saying, and dealing in government gossip. He's a pathetic loser.

If they did NOTHING wrong, they have nothing to worry about. So why do they need lawyers in the first place?? We were told by the Administration and the News Media that they upstanding boy scouts and did everything by the book, so what gives??

oh and, NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW is still pertinent right??

When Trump sued ABC for that George’s repeated claim that a jury found Trump liable for raping a woman, ABC settled the case before George Stephanopoulis was forced to testify in a deposition. Discovery will be the turning point in this case. Will those DOJ officials fight hard when Trump wants discovery of emails, text messages between the DOJ and possibly the Georgia prosecutors?

See Scooter Libby or General Flynn, for examples of what happens to people who have done nothing wrong and get drawn in and end up culpable of process crimes. That’s why you need counsel.

Well... not really. But if they want to prep just in case it will make discovery easier

What’s the going rate on a top of the line DC shyster? All of those felons in the FBI and DOJ will be far too hot to peddle any influence. Giuliani the whole damned nest of vermin.

I've had a belly full of Republican liars and posers for a long time. So bad they've had to rename part of the Republican party due to the frauds and leftist globalist in their midst. If they don't stand with Trump I'll never support that party again. If that happens I plan on becoming one of their worst nightmares.

They can lawyer up, but, as we have learned from them, the process is the punishment. That’s the point of lawfare.

Jack Smith was a nobody and will continue to be a nobody... he's a bitter little man who was put up as a decoy. Same as the black bimbo in Georgia. These are not serious people.

Besides, Trump has bigger fish to fry than two bit corrupt democrats... Defund their sick institutions, clean them up and replace the corrupt ones. Then move on to making American Great again.

Unless I'm mistaken any trials of the co-conspirators would take place in DC. That means that any such person would have a $2 million gofundme page and would be found “not guilty” in about 20 minutes.
