\"JackJack Smith asked federal District Judge Tanya Chutkan to essentially suspend proceedings against Trump in the election interference case.<\/p>\n

This comes after a judge in the Florida classified documents case ruled that Attorney General Garland\u2019s appointment of Smith was unconstitutional.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not sure what to think here. Didn\u2019t the DOJ have a case? They had three years to make sure their duck were all in a row, surely the taxpayers deserve to know that their money was being spent prosecuting a real case with evidence.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What this is starting to look like is yet another, in a long line of bullshit cases which had no merit at the outset. This looks like confirmation of Trump and his attorney\u2019s claims that the legal system was indeed being misused and had been weaponized.<\/p>\n

This raises more fundamental questions for me as a Citizen. Were cases questioning the 2020 election that were dismissed because they had no merit, or no standing dismissed because there wasn\u2019t legal precedent or because the case was brought by or on behalf of Donald Trump?<\/p>\n

Can I or any citizen get a fair trial, or fair treatment in a court of law? Will the color of my skin, my voting record, or indeed this blog be used to skew the outcome? Am I more, or less, equal than someone else in the eyes of the law?<\/p>\n

These sorts of questions deserve answers. If it\u2019s found that the DOJ is corrupt and that corruption extends into the lower levels of the Justice Department we\u2019ve got some seriously concerning issues to deal with.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It looks like the American taxpayers will get an answer to some of these question because House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan and Administration Subcommittee on Oversight Chairman Barry Loudermilk sent a letter to Smith on Friday instructing him to preserve his records.<\/p>\n

Honestly, I don\u2019t give a shit about Jack Smith. I, as a citizen want to know who was giving him his orders. I\u2019d like to know who in the DOJ insisted on the pursuit of a case that was so thin at the outset that it was obvious prosecution would be unsuccessful and an embarrassment to the DOJ.<\/p>\n

Jack Smith is nothing, a nobody, his bosses on the other hand are of interest.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I hope and pray that the House Judiciary Committee doesn\u2019t just have endless hearings, but actually recommends participants be tried for crimes. The trouble is that trials would be processed through a possibly corrupt DOJ. I\u2019m not sure how that problem is resolved.<\/p>\n

Leticia James, Alvin Bragg, & Fani Willis should also be preserving their records.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
