Jack Smith isn’t a stupid man. A number of definitions apply to Smith, but stupid isn’t one of them. A zealot? A vainglorious, demagogic political hack who is doing the bidding of another political hack? Yes, to both. But Jack Smith isn’t dumb.
Smith was the head of the public corruption unit at DOJ when, in 2014, he brought public corruption charges against sitting Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell. McDonnell was charged with 14 counts. Those counts included honest services wire fraud, obtaining property under “color of official right,” and extortion under “color of official right.” Like most DOJ attorneys with the power of the US government at their fingertips, charging McDonnell and his wife wasn’t enough. Smith’s team threatened to arrest McDonnell’s children if the governor and his wife discussed the case with them. After a three-week trial, he and his wife were convicted. The Court of Appeals affirmed both convictions, but in 2015, the Supreme Court, in a unanimous decision, vacated Smith’s convictions, finding that Smith and his strongarming gang had invented a new meaning for “official act.” Smith had interpreted the statutory term of “official act” too broadly. So it seems that Smith has a history of channeling Lavrentiy Beria. Beria was Stalin’s secret police chief and was infamous for targeting someone and then finding a crime to fit the arrest. “Find me the man, and I will show you the crime” – or some iteration of the same.

The Supremes can and I believe will stop this insanity. Now, what about that Fani whatshername in Georgia? How does she have any legal right to indict him for questioning the FRAUD in the FRAUDULENT election????
Lots of 4D chess going on out there I guess ......LOL!
Lost me with the first sentence.
“Jack smith isn’t stupid”
Meh. Just because someone is in a position of power doesn’t mean they go there through intelligence and hard work.
That sounds plausible. Then they use the outrage as another reason that ‘something has to be done about the supreme court’ in their campaign to prime the public to accept the changes they want when they get the power to actually do it.
Freegards
Maybe not dumb...but certainly rabid
Dems are always looking for new ways to advance multiple agendas
Correct, and this is what eventually happened to Beria....”He and his confederates were taken away and promptly shot. His wife and son were sent to a Siberian labour camp.”
It’s not a theory.
He took out McDonnell which was the Rat party objective. It’s the way Obama works.
Grand Inquisitor Mad Jack needs to be removed from the government by the Congress, banned from ever BEING in the government again, and then prosecuted for abuse of power - 8 USC 242.
He’s an ordinary psychopath. The Judiciary Committee should order a psychological examination of this frozen faced freak who has basically seized control of the government.
Jack Smith is a PURE EVIL, VILE, DUSGUSTING POS \!!!
My bet is that both sides are building “legal equity” and that there will be a grand bargain where Trump and Biden both agree to not run again ever, and all charges are either dropped or pardoned.
Then, DeSantis runs against Newsome and Newsome wins because just enough of the Trump-only voters stay home.
Smith is a classic example of the “Peter Principal”, where a person raises to the highest level of their incompetence. He’s a typical low IQ fool who fears Trump.
What Te the statutes regarding malicious prosecution.
Something has to stop this.. it’s leading to a boiling point. They just keep pushing this , since there is no reaction.
They think they can...
This is America with hard nosed commies at the wheel.
“He took out McDonnell which was the Rat party objective. It’s the way Obama works.”
Agreed.
Clearing the field
You can’t lose when you have no one left to run against you.
It’s how they play the game.
And the Pubes?
Strongly worded letters and investigations of . . . ?
Jack Smith worked for the corrupt anti-Serbian “International Criminal Court” from 2008 to 2010.

He therefore is a crumb-bum!!!!
Upon returning to the US, Smith pulled the same ICC-like tactics against former Virginia governor Bob McDonnell. The Supreme Court overturned his conviction.
Now crumb-bum Smith is pulling the same ICC tactics against Donald Trump! Will the Supreme Court have to act again?
>> But Jack Smith isn’t dumb.
That will be determined by future events.

If you were paying attention to the video of elections officials counting these ballots, you saw one goon at a computer clicking "next" without scrolling down to compare the signature to the one on file. And one goon did this with hundreds of thousands of ballots. This is unconstitutional because you have two different standards. Someone who shows up to vote in person has to provide ID, but signature verification for the cheat-by-mail-ins does not exist.
If SCOTUS does not act before 2024, then we're once again going to see the republican in the lead on election night only to have the count slow-walked a week with the mail-ins putting the Democrat ahead.
Republican-controlled state legislatures could have put a stop to cheat-by-mail-in ballots in 2020, but we all know why they did not. They were happy for Dems to use them to cheat Trump. In 2022 they were happy for Dems to use them to defeat MAGA candidates. As long as the state legislatures are infected with RINOs, the only relief possible before 2024 is with SCOTUS.
