I hope Smith made arrangements to hide all the documents related to the case. It’s shame the US voters have thrown justice out of 6th floor window.
Alternatively, he could find a judge willing to publish every single one, unredacted.
I hear that storing sensitive government documents in bathrooms is totally cool and not prosecutable. So he could just do that.
Yup.
You can kiss Trump ever seeing consequences for his crimes goodbye.
Welcome to the new America.
Elections have consequences and Americans are simply too stupid to maintain a democracy. So we won’t have one much longer.
A couple of people gave it a shot.
Not happening at all, but the only hope for accountability is a massive blue wave in 2026 followed by an immediate impeachment. Even then that’s just early retirement.
We are well and truly fucked.
Yeah that’s it, the third impeachment will definitely do it!
but the only hope for accountability is a massive blue wave in 2026
So there is no hope.
Relevant username is relevant.
I don’t think that’s it. Citizens of the USA don’t care about Trump’s felonies at all, that does not affect anyone’s day to day life (except Trump). USA citizens are looking at bills and expenses that didn’t get better with Biden, and Harris was essentially the same candidate. The hope is maybe Trump will try something different to help.
Biden and Harris did their utmost to dig America out of Trump’s first term and the international shit pile of COVID. They were blocked at every turn by retardicans who didn’t want them to accomplish anything, even right-wing agenda items like border control, because that might make even idiots like you take notice. Good luck with those lower bills though lol. Chump.
trRump isn’t going to help anyone but himself.
I agree with that. Here’s to hoping everything I thought I new about economics and government social programs was wrong.
Yes, a majority of US citizens are dumb. The average American experienced 3 years of retaliatory price gouging that was mislabeled as “inflation.”
Why was there retaliatory price gouging? Punishment for not voting in Trump in 2020. Big business wants more de-regulation; so the next time the vote doesn’t go in their favor they can do it again.
What enables them to do it again? Republican policy.
We’re in a vicious cycle of stupid now, which again, was by design.
Yep. Retaliation against Americans and trying to get donvict reinstalled was a likely goal of the price-gouging.
I don’t think the average citizen of the USA is dumb. People looked at what Biden did for the last few years and that didn’t help them. The Harris campaign would have done better if they had taken more stances that were different from Biden. (I can say this confidently now that I know the results of the election, I wouldn’t have said it a month ago.)
I also don’t think there has been “retaliatory price gouging” as you say. The cost of production and distribution is always increasing, it’s why there is inflation. I don’t think you can find any actual evidence of price gouging because of Biden.
People looked at what Biden did for the last few years and that didn’t help them.
This is dumb. Thinking economic policy has immediate effects is dumb. Trump’s good economy was largely a result of Obama’s economic policy. The inflation during the Biden years was a result of Trump’s economic policy and COVID. It takes years to dig out of that hole. Everyone knew (or maybe not, people are dumb) that COVID stimulus was going to be inflationary; it was just a gamble that it would be less painful than a more 2008 style financial crisis. The whole world was experiencing inflation and Trump’s tax reform did not help the situation. Thinking tariffs will help fix the economy when the number one complaint is high prices is dumb.
Dumb US citizens believe that tariffs will lower prices, and that presidents can control prices.
As far as “evidence of price gouging” is concerned, I’m really not interested in this debate. The election is over so any evidence at this point is moot.
If you’re genuinely curious and aren’t convinced that a majority of US voters are dumb AF, read this, I’m sure they didn’t:
But why?
Make the fascist fire you.
- Because his job will now never be completed
- Because this also slightly diminishes the possibility that he’ll be politically prosecuted by the incoming admin - though to be clear, I fully expect the Trump DoJ to make Smith’s life a living hell, and to throw him in jail if they can, and perhaps even execute him if they can figure out how to kangaroo court things to that degree. That is not a joke. This is an entirely serious comment.
I understand the sentiment, but it will never happen. Killing “Whites”, especially whites named “Jack Smith” is bad for optics. Now Letitia James and Fani Willis is another story entirely. If I was either one of them I’d be getting my ass on a plane to someplace with a non-extradition treaty post haste.
Nazis make new in-groups and out-groups all the time. Loyalty way overshadows race in this case.

Tldr; Every other possibility ends in dismissal with prejudice. Dropping it leaves it potentially reviewable in 4 years. It’s still highly unlikely anything happens.
Came here to post this. Legal Eagle breaks it down proper here.
Thanks for this.
The Fascists will fire people with firing squads, there’s no shame in an act of self preservation when resigning from a job you can’t do might keep you alive.
Because the cause for his appointment no longer exists. The OLC memo regarding the prosecution of sitting Presidents means that Smith’s appointment is frustrated at its most basic level of inception.
just wait till Jack see’s all the new crimes trump is gonna commit, he’ll be back in business in a few years
Dog… just stop with the copium. It’s embarrassing. Trump will never answer for his crimes, period. This should be abundantly clear after 8 years of flopped motions against him.
No Mueller report, no special council, no hush money case… is ever going to stop this guy.
Give up on the idea of justice against this dude and start preparing for his dictatorship.
Teflon donvict.
“Won’t somebody [redacted] of this [redacted] p[olitician]?” unfortunately seems like our only escape hatch. I wish the two time travelers had better success in their missions. I am not confident the future resistance has enough resources to send a third, but one can hope.
The Supreme Court already rules that not only is Trump all but immune from prosecution, but that he can’t even be investigated or questioned over it.
So if Trump were to make a phone call and say “Yes, we’re going to sign this into law, and schedule a meeting about that other thing. Oh, and have Tom Hanks killed in a hail of bullets, kthxbye.”, the fact that he ordered Tom Hanks killed might be prosecutable. The problem is that even if they know he ordered Tom Hanks killed, they legally can’t even ask him about it because it happened during an official phone call.
Trump could go on a crime spree that would make the Mafia legitimately look like choir boys, and Jack Smith…well, Jack Smith isn’t going to be able to do Jack about it.
January 20, 2025 isn’t a swearing in ceremony. It’s a coronation.
yep, I hate it but at least it’s starting to sink in. come jan. we are in a functional trump dictatorship. there are no checks and balances left, the court assured so and with the legislative branch under his control, the single, only hope we have is that he’s too hilariously inept to be effective.
Because he’s a nazi supporter, and was ineffective on purpose.
Leave it up to moderate liberals to roll over and die. Way to signal his kingship guys, fucking top notch pick, that Merrick Galand. To think this ineffective dipshit was considered for SCOTUS. Literally a direct historical correlation to the rise of Hitler through ineffective and complacent liberalism from the socialist party. I guess when you construct a DOJ that doesn’t prosecute billionaires the whole thing short circuits when the tyrant is one… who could have predicted that except every leftist and historian?
We have a socialist party?
The Republicans sure think so lmao
“COMMUNIST MARXIST FASCISTS” are our preferred pronouns according to Shitler.
No, and neither did Germany.
Maybe I’m not getting something here, but why do you think Germany didn’t have a socialist party?
Because at the time of the Nazi takeover, the party with that name was wholly operating as a rubber stamp to the most extremist right wing elements taking hold of their party. “The Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea” is similarly nondescriptive as “German Worker’s Party” later purposely misleadingly named to “National Socialist German Workers’ Party” after Hitlers rise.
Ah I see. Yes, no doubt the NSDAP wasn’t socialist but that doesn’t mean Germany didn’t have socialist parties back then. E.g. the social democrats were still marxist, iirc.
As an aside it is very saddening that people really think the nazis were leftists because of the name. That’s just a level of stupidity I can’t fathom to comprehend.

Republicans have spent a lot of time and money spreading that propaganda. Which is interesting, because today’s Nazis, just like the OG Nazis, cannot WAIT to start killing anyone that is or might be a “Communist”. But somehow Nazis are Communists/leftists.
No one ever accused magaforbrains of being smart.
I believe they were referring to the German Social Democratic Party, which was in power for a time during the Weimar Republic.
There are rules for us, not them.
I think you should leave
Probably best not to give the Orange Idiot the satisfaction of firing them all. Sure it’s a petty victory, but when it’s the only victory all your hard work will ever amount to, go for it. The only way Trump will ever be punished is if somehow it becomes legal to punish his heirs/estate after he dies of whatever does him in. Old age or heart disease if I had to place a bet.
Thanks for all your hard work. Very meaningful.
Not sure if this is serious or sarcastic, but I do think what Smith did was meaningful.
