It's official - Charges dismissed against Trump

Monday, November 25, 2024

A federal judge dismissed charges Monday against President-elect Donald Trump for allegedly trying to steal the 2020 election, at the request of Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith. U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan agreed to the request and ruled with Trump's lawyers agreeing that "there is no indication that the dismissal is 'part of a scheme of prosecutorial harassment' or otherwise improper." The request was expected after Smith asked Chutkan to halt all deadlines in the case. Longstanding department policy bars prosecuting sitting presidents, so Smith was expected to wind down both federal cases against Trump after he won the Nov. 5 election.

Hey -------. Republicans won finally ... So now you are trying to rewrite history?

Liars gotta lie I guess.

Of course, you might not be lying. Maybe you are just another dimbulb dittohead repeating maga lies. Lies that have been debunked over and over.

Attorney General Garland's appointment of Jack Smith as Special Counsel is that (1) the Attorney General had statutory authority to hire Smith to work in the Department of Justice pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 3101, and (2) the Attorney General also has authority, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 510, to delegate his own power to supervise a criminal case to anyone employed at DOJ.

Biden should preemptively pardon everyone on his administration trumpy's generals and anyone else who Trumpy has threatened with revenge and retribution.

And of course he should definitely pardon his only living son Hunter Biden. That ---- should end right now.
