Summary

Special counsel Jack Smith’s report asserts sufficient evidence existed to convict Donald Trump for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election but cites Trump’s 2024 presidential victory as the reason charges were dropped, due to constitutional protections for sitting presidents.

Smith detailed Trump’s actions, including pressuring officials, spreading false election claims, and encouraging protests.

While charges against co-conspirators were considered, no final conclusions were reached.

Smith denied political bias, emphasizing adherence to facts and law.

The report also references challenges like expanded presidential immunity.

    With what he knows? They would interrogate the fuck out of him and keep him under constant surveillance.

        Y’all thinking anything is going to happen to Jack are going to be surprised when nothing happens to him and he writes his book and gets his TV show and just coasts into retirement in a gated community.

        “It’s a big club and you ain’t in it.” but Jack and Don both are.

          Yeah, Trump would have to get pretty bored to go after Jack Smith… maybe -MAYBE- a Gaetz DOJ would have gone after him like a cat offering a dead mouse at Trump’s front door, but I don’t really see Trump world caring about this any longer. All the FNC talking heads have stopped, well, talking about Jack Smith.

            Exactly, he served his purpose. He “prosecuted” Trump, he aired the crimes committed and purposely slow walked the investigation. Trump won a second term, Jack will now “fade into obscurity” with a book deal, tv show, and mansion.
