DOJ releases Special Counsel Jack Smith's report on investigation into Trump election interference case
Fox News ^ | 1/14/25 | Brooke Singman , David Spunt , Jake Gibson , Elizabeth Pritchett

The Justice Department made public Volume I of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s final report on his now-closed investigations into President-elect Donald Trump, days before he is set to be sworn into office.

Attorney General Merrick Garland released the first volume, which focuses on the election case against Trump, of Smith’s report on Tuesday at midnight after back-and-forth in the federal court system.

An opening letter from Smith to Garland said that it is "laughable" that Trump believes the Biden administration, or other political actors, influenced or directed his decisions as a prosecutor, stating that he was guided by the Principles of Federal Prosecution.

Releases it at 1:00 a.m. in the morning. Jack Smith and Merrick Garland should both be in prison.

It is not against the law to contest an election.

Becker says it well:

Kyle Becker
@kylenabecker

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith lies endlessly and with ease in his new legal “briefing” on Trump’s challenging of the 2020 election results.

This specifically addresses Smith’s claims on “the law.”

1. Legally challenging an election is not a criminal offense. It is not “obstruction” of a government function. Donald Trump is a party to the case. In addition, he was President of the United States.
2. Trump wanted his supporters to “peacefully” support the election objections already taking place in the Electoral College when the attack on the capitol was instigated by those not at his speech.
3. Donald Trump was a candidate in his election. Challenging election results is not “conspiring” to deprive citizens of the right to vote.

Again, Trump was a party to the case asserting his right to challenge elections. This is not depriving citizens of the right to vote. This is patently absurd.

Donald Trump was participating in the democratic process; he was not a “threat to democracy.”

Indeed, if a presidential candidate cannot legally challenge or discuss the results of elections without going to prison, there can be no “democracy.”

Democrats are low class:

When JD Vance moves into the Naval Observatory residence on Jan. 20 with his wife Usha and their three young children, it will be his 1st time there. No invitation for a formal sit-down or tour has been extended by VP Kamala Harris, multiple D and R sources told CBS News. https://cbsnews.com/news/harris-jd-vance-vice-presidents-residence/

In other words, Jerk Smith did his dirty deeds at the direction of the White Hospice and Garland's DOJerks.

Well, Trump didn’t do that for Biden in 2021 on account of the steal. Biden didn’t have to do that this time around, because Trump already knew his way around, but Biden did it anyway with a huge sh!t-eating grin on his face because Kamala lost. Kamala, however, is still pouting.

wouldn’t it be nice if Smith and Garland ended up in prison for running an illegal operation in the justice department.

I can tell by looking that Jack Smith is a liar and a crook and generally a total dirtbag.

Just like the process in the House J6 “trial” against Trump, no room for cross examination or submission of defense corroborating evidence or testimony.

A one sided OPINION that is all projectile vomit with explosive diarrhea level rhetoric and inflammatory, emotional choice of trigger words and phrases to feed TDS mind virus “victims”. The pride mind virus of “see I told you so” needs feeding and stroking.

More “Orange Man Bad” propaganda costing millions of dollars.

They wantto try and ignite a resistence against the Trump agenda.

I can gardly wait 8ntil the 21st January when Garland will hear two words:

“You’re fired.”

These two violated the Civil Rights of president Trump. They both should be indicted for espionage,treason and sedition.
So should Mayorkas.

“No invitation for a formal sit-down or tour has been extended by VP Kamala Harris, multiple D and R sources told CBS News. “

That’s because Harris has no idea where the Naval Observatory is.

“wouldn’t it be nice if Smith and Garland ended up in prison for running an illegal operation in the justice department.”

Raid their homes and offices on day one. Cart everything out of there, then bring them both up on charges of treason.

““You’re fired.””

And pull all of Biden’s appointees security clearances.

The Trump legal team had best release their rebuttal document. Cannot let this smear stand without a defense.

She’s waiting for her order from Temu to ship from China. Four new pairs of kneepads, because she knows she’s going back home to her old job.
