    He’s testing to see how far he can push. But he’s going to find out Jack Smith pushes back a hell of a lot harder.

        The best thing about him is that I don’t have a clue what his politics are. He’s worked for Democrats and Republicans, and he has never, as far as I’m aware, said a single goddamn word in public about his political opinions. Nothing. And his prosecutorial record is similarly impossible to use as a barometer for his politics. It shows that he’s extremely good at his job, and nothing else.

        Gotta respect a guy like that. Partisan to one thing and one thing only: Serving justice.

      It might just be copium, but jack smith is starting to give me some hope and take the edge off my jaded political nihilism.

      I think we’re really gonna need a movie off this. “Jack Smith: Special Prosecutor”. it kind of sounds like… a jack ryan type spy thriller… and it practically writes itself. (only action being Jack running a triathalon.)

        Especially after how milquetoast Garland has been. But that may have been to remove any notion of political retribution. Though they scream about it anyway.
