Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) has filed legislation to defund the federal salary of Jack Smith, the DOJ special counsel prosecuting Donald Trump.

This legislation will never make it through the Senate, and would be vetoed by Biden even if the Senate were in GOP hands. And even if the Senate was under GOP control and Biden forgot to veto this legislation because he was busy crapping himself, it would not end Smith's prosecution of Trump.

Plus it sounds a lot like a bill of attainder.

Is this action what Constitution says about the House provides the funds for gov’t?

I think it was Newt who said last nite that House should act to take away particular gov’t funding.

Even it House accomplished the defund of salary, rich individuals would pay him. Or another branch of gov’t would pay him.

Regardless House should immediately defund the DOJ and FBI. PERIOD.

I can only dream.
