Special counsel Jack Smith said Monday that he is dropping the federal election subversion case against President-elect Donald Trump, seeking the case’s dismissal in a court filing with the judge.
Trump has said he would fire Smith once he retook the office, shattering previous norms around special counsel investigations.
“The (Justice) Department’s position is that the Constitution requires that this case be dismissed before the defendant is inaugurated,” Smith wrote in a six-page filing. “This outcome is not based on the merits or strength of the case against the defendant.”
This outcome is not based on the merits or strength of the case against the defendant.
Proof is in the pudding.
Retribution is coming.
"“The (Justice) Department’s position is that the Constitution requires that this case be dismissed before the defendant is inaugurated,” Smith wrote in a six-page filing with the US District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan in Washington, DC, regarding the election subversion case. “This outcome is not based on the merits or strength of the case against the defendant.”
Proof is in the pudding. The election is over and so is the election interference. I hope Jack Smith has been getting his jogging in because he better run for the hills.
Retribution is coming.

Smith is going to get in his parting shots.
I mean like all Libtards, he has to keep doubling down on failure. He has to keep believing he is the force for good when in fact he is the evil one who tried to deny Americans their right to choice. Smith was the literal threat to Democracy.
Demonrats can't believe that though.

Oh, yes.
Going after the people who invetsigated you?
That's not mafia tactics at all.
What grounds would Trump have to harass or charge them?
No one is above the law.
Trump seems to think he is.
Again, please show on what grounds the people investigating Trump can possibly be charged or harrased?
Oh, yes.

You did not read your own quote, eh?
Yes. Mafia boss has to do what mafia bosses do.
She will have to or Trump will replace her.It would be silly for Trump, via Bondi, to go after Smith et. al. It would take years.
What could they investigate though? Defrauding the USA , voting rights violations come to mind.
If Bondi wants to get creative, that is.
But I don't think she will, and I hope she won't.
I hope they pick this up again in 4 years.

You mean election interference and fraud from the Single Party MAGAs? I mean, it's possible. We'll see how far down the road to communism Trump gets us in 4 years.If election reform happens Democrats are going lose millions more "voters".
He will break them financially. With lawyer costs and bogus IRS bills.It's going to be fun seeing them scramble to come up with legal reasons for going after them.
The main problem will be these people know excellent lawyers so can use the same delay tactics that Trump uses and they only have to delay for 4 years because I have a feeling once Trump leaves office these revenge charges will go away.

Trump is above the law.No one is above the law.
It was dismissed without prejudice and Chutkan made a point that the status of president is temporary in nature. Also, Trump's legal team did not oppose the without prejudice status, which means that the avenue for appeals is closed.I hope they pick this up again in 4 years.
Chutkan just issued a finding of no prosecutorial misconduct, so that just got a lot harder to do if that is your goal. Trump's desire for lawfare has been anticipated and largely dealt with already.I hope Trump sends Jack Smith into a supermax solitary. Its what he deserves.
