As expected.
Wonder if Trump will go after Jackie boy?

CNN —
Special counsel Jack Smith said Monday that he is dropping his 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.”

Once again, Trump wins. Those Jan. 6 charges were bullshit anyway.

"WASHINGTON — Special counsel Jack Smith has filed a motion to drop all four felony charges against President-elect Donald Trump in connection with his effort to overturn his 2020 presidential election in the lead-up to the deadly Jan. 6 attack on the U.S Capitol.

Trump was first indicted on four felonies in August 2023: conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding and conspiracy against rights. The case was then put on hold for months as Trump’s team argued that Trump could not be prosecuted."

Hopefully not, revenge politics isn't something we need right now, not to mention you don't prove to the citizenry that you're better than the Democrats by acting just like them.

Good to hear this BS case is over and done with.

Jack Smith is the one who should have a felony conviction on his record.

I hope Trump lives by the feud on the dems....Break them financially like they did with some of Trump's people to get guilty pleas and who tried the same with him.

Make them howl.

Every one of these assholes, who prosecuted Trump on bullshit claims, for the sole purpose of interfering with the election, need to be sent to prison.

Every damned one of them.

Correct. Trump ran away from prison by running for President.

He's simply using the Oval Office as a a shield from prosecution.

I just do not see the Progressives ever stopping their venomous ways. If you can guarantee it and we need it in writing and notarized with top lawyers proofreading it with judges on our side, I may agree with you.

If they broke the law, then yes, they need to be prosecuted for it.

.. but going after them simply because they're on an "enemies list" will just trap the country in an endless tit-for-tat lawfare spiral. President Trump won in part because he has a far more optimistic and unifying vision for the country than the Democrats do, you don't fulfill that vision with revenge politics.

That zealot is The Poster Child for prosecution
Hang him high for all to see or they will do it again asap.

Agreed.

Trump doesn't generally waste time on revenge. Not in government, not in business.

It is counter productive, a waste of time and resources, and does not benefit anyone.

Correction. It looks like this one was first.

No wonder.

I know how he won.

He got enough idiots to vote for him.

That's kind of how election work.
