I don’t get excited about anything that seems to sound like a positive for Trump.

If there’s one thing we should have learned by now, it’s that that every institution in this country can come up with a reason to deny Trump justice for whatever reason or no reason at all: no standing, didn’t file argument in time, no merit, he has orange skin, whatever.

A pro-Trump argument? Baseless. Anti-Trump, no matter how preposterous? Bring it on.

So then Biden will just appoint Smith (and then it’s legal).

Trump will need to force him to be replaced and all evidence discarded and make the other new Special Prosecutor reinvestigate from ground 0 to make this have a difference.

Awesome! I had no idea he was still alive. He’s a serious man and IMO a heavy hitter. The kangaroo court will probably ignore him, which would be a truly damning indictment of the court.

Everything Smith has done so far is Fruit of the Poisoned Tree.

Ed Meese is 92 years old according to wikipedia!

Another item I had forgotten -- "On October 8, 2019, U.S. president Donald Trump presented Meese the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor in the United States."

If Biden were to appoint, the Senate would have to confirm. No chance of that. That’s why Smith wasn’t properly appointed in the first place.

Mark Levin served as Ed Meese’s chief of staff. Meese was Ronald Regan’s Attorney General. That was a time when we had an administration that was following the Constitution.

Just read the 35 page amicus brief…

Like the way he shot down the Reno Regulation and the Garland Memo.
