Smith needs to take a trip to the train station.

“Wait, it came from USSC, didn’t it?”

Justice Thomas first called it out in his concurrence on the original decision over POTUS official acts.

This guy is not a legal prosecutor, no matter what the lawless DOJ says.

Firings? Imprisonment!

Imprisonments? Summary executions!

He is interfering with this election by winning. Can’t have that.

Right after President Kamalalala has the FBI arrest the Judge for following the law.

The Democrats are never short of money to fund lawfare.

After the 2020 election, I thought that there was zero chance of a Republican ever being elected President again.

I'm not that pessimistic now--I think Trump has some chance. But the odds are in favor of Democrats pulling off another steal.

Of course, if they manage to kill Trump before Nov. 5, who knows what would happen? Would that turn enough voters against the Democrats? Would Vance then be the Presidential nominee or would the RNC substitute someone else (and keep Vance as VP)?

That’s not double jeopardy. There were no charges that completed adjudication where he was acquitted or charges were dismissed with prejudice.

It’s still total garbage, though.

I am no lawyer so please correct me.

Doesn’t this give the Trump legal team to have the superseding indictment thrown out as it was filed by someone who is not properly appointed special counsel?

That is one argument that can be made. Smith lacks standing.

If they were dismissed with prejudice, and the charges are brought again by the same disqualified prosecutor, maybe it’s not double jeopardy, per se. But it’s still just as defective for the same reasons.

Congress never approved him. So Jack is operating outside the law, and he knows it. He should be disbarred for it.

This is election interference and he is trying to help Kamala.

Nope he lost the Florida case and the DC case because of two reasons. The first being was he was never appointed to Special Counsel by Congress. That’s the law and he is operating despite what it says.

Furthermore, you have the Supreme Court ruling too that Presidents operating under the official office of the Presidency cannot be held legally or criminally liable. Every President from George Washington has had if.

The fact Jack is doing this means he is ignoring the law and the Supreme Court ruling. He should be disbarred.

Democrats are not the least bit bothered by hypocrisy, dishonesty or treachery. In fact they are hallmarks of the party.

It's Slytherin vs Hufflepuff...

Must be done before 60 days of the election. They are within the time period.

Wrong case. This is the January 6th case which was always in DC where the crime was committed (their wording).

Exactly. This isn’t something you do if you’re confident in your election chances.
