They’re running out of time and trials to frame Trump before the election. This is desperation on public display.

“Jack — need you to get that case reinstated.”
“Are you kidding?? I’ll look like a fool!”
“Need you to do this, Jack.”
“I’m not gonna. This is ridiculous!”
“I’m not asking, jack.”
“Really?”
“Really. Do as you’re told.”
“[sigh] OK.”

Yes; every time we hear more about this guy, the more it seems there’s something really wrong with him.

where prosecutors claimed the ruling was “at odds with widespread and longstanding appointment practices in the Department of Justice and across the government,”

So, it’s been done wrong for long enough that it’s okay, even though it’s still wrong? Got it...

Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the case in July, claiming Smith's appointment violated the Appointments clause of the Constitution

. Judges do to not make ‘claims’ that is the role of the lawyers and persecutors such as Smith. Judges make decisions and issue formal opinions based on the claims made by others.

Just the News is usually not this sloppy.

Someone in the Dem/Woke/Communist inner circle elite called Jack Smith and informed him the same threats to him and others are still in place if he fails. No excuses. Trump has to be in prison before the election.

“Yes, sir. I’ll try again, sir.”
“Maybe you didn’t hear me, Jack. No excuses.”

[T]he ruling was “at odds with widespread and longstanding appointment practices in the Department of Justice and across the government,

Only a corrupt judge could think to overturn a ruling as solid and well-supported as Judge Cannon's dismissal--wasn't it 92 pages of legal pith?--in favor of the totally loosey-goosey argumentation Smith put forth (above) for his appeal.

There is no law in that "argument," only a water fountain comment by a noobie paralegal.

“widespread and longstanding” should NEVER usurp “as outlined in the law”.

Just sayin’...

The legal pursuit of Trump is a profitable and thriving industry.

Smith is just fighting to stay in business.

Add to that the ‘green light’ that Clarence Thomas sent her in the presidential immunity case.

Exactly. Even an appeals court reversal just sets this up for the Supreme Court. Given their constricted view of administrative powers not set forth in law this is far from a slam dunk. And if Congress doesn’t like it they have a remedy. They can reenact the special counsel act which they chose to allow to expire.

Shouldn’t that read: Illegitimate Special counsel Jack Smith ?
