The Department of Justice has announced Jack Smith is being shown the door and dissolving his federal cases before Donald Trump takes office. Those cases are the inert January 6 case and the moribund presidential documents case. Before Smith goes, someone who’s not a Chris Wray flunky should lock down his office, confiscate all electronics, and prevent a Hillary Clinton-like bleach bit and shredding party.
Attorney General Merrick Garland, who heads the so-called “Justice” Department, just realized that his office, and by extension, his illegally appointed special counsel, can’t bring charges against a sitting president of the United States. Odd that it hasn’t stopped them from conjuring cases against Trump before, Presidential Records Act, ethics, and the law be damned.
Instead of hosting a bleach bit and shredding party as he probably is doing right now, Smith should back away from the office, place his hands behind his back, and get ready for the zip ties — that is, if there is real justice in this world.
“The DOJ, where Jack Smith works, can not prosecute a sitting president.
Fox News is told that Jack Smith will be gone from his post as special counsel, meaning the cases will be gone before Trump takes the oath of office on January 20,”@davidspunt @FoxNews… pic.twitter.com/3XoVnU3BP7

Garland illegally named Smith in 2022 as a special counsel even though Smith didn’t work for the Justice Department, a prerequisite of the special counsel law. This is what Florida Judge Aileen Cannon ruled when she tossed out Smith’s bogus Mar-a-Lago classified documents case. You’ll recall that one, where Joe Biden green-lighted an FBI raid on the former president of the United States of America to claw back — what exactly?
Garland orchestrated this raid, Biden had to remove executive privilege in order to accomplish it, and FBI Director Chris Wray was all-in — because Orange Man Bad, according to Trump legal adviser Mike Davis.
