1) I usually agree with Mike Davis. He thinks that Jack Smith should be prosecuted under the theory "conspiracy to violate rights" statute, bc that was the statute used against Trump in some of Smith's election cases.

I disagree. For two reasons: (a) prosecutors (like presidents) have immunity from prosecution; and (b) more importantly, legitimizing this bullshite legal theory will do nothing to end lawfare forever.

What should happen to Smith? He needs to be disbarred and unemployable. His license should be gone in any state he currently holds it, and he should be disbarred from litigating in Federal Court in all fifty states. Any accrued federal retirement should be revoked, any pay he earned from participating in this miscarriage of justice should be disgorged. His security clearance should also be revoked, permanently. His name and reputation should be ruined.

2) Trump's messaging on the dismissal should be that the cases were dismissed bc they had NO MERIT, as opposed to "they were dismissed bc he won the election."

These legal theories need to be dead and buried. Perhaps by declaratory judgment? Or by Civil Suit by POTUS, or other victims of this lawfare against the Federal Government.

There are many ways to punish the guilty in this lawfare shennanigans - but prosecuting them on the same bogus crimes I do not believe is one of them.

Downvote away. Discuss please.

I might add a public hanging was once the penalty for treason

Jack has too many friend in positions to make this happen that will not hold him accountable.

Does DJT pardoning himself in 2028 get him out of everything except the state case?

Can he appoint someone to re-open them, then dismiss with prejudice? That would involve some wild conflicts, I guess.

I would leave Smith alone. He has been humiliated. Target political corruption in the intel agencies instead.

I agree with you. Unfortunately I think the slimy cocksucker will slither away unscathed.

No punishment short of jail time or bankruptcy is fitting for what these people did.

He's quite wealthy from what I understand so being unemployable is not a big deal. But who does all that you suggest? Is it at the state bar level or is it some federal entity that would exercise all you that stuff? Either way, I'm OK with your plan.

I agree with targeting the IC, but I don't think Smith should get a pass. I bet within his circle, he hasn't suffered any humiliation, in fact.... he's probably seen as a hero. Smith should be dragged thru the same public shite show he put Trump thru.
It's inexcusable. Whether or not he has immunity from prosecution, I don't know.
Again, he should not get a pass.

If he was illegallly appointed, as some have said, they yes, he should be prosecuted since he accepted the appointment. He spent $50 million of taxpayer's money for a personal vendetta. That's fraud in my book.

If nothing came from the Durham report, then nothing will happen to anyone. The government had something like 174 exculpatory statements from Papadopolous.

They knew Russiagate was a scam from the start.


Bongino explained how the deep state moved from Papadapolous to Danchenko to Kilimnik. Kilimnik was a big State Dept Ukraine source during the Obama administration and there is no evidence he was a Russian spy.

Mike Davis is right. All you propose is to stop him from practicing law in the US. Well, he wasnt practicing law in the US when they found him. He was at the Hague. You cant touch him over there. And the Euro elite will pay him handsomely for his global service to helping destroy Trump

From 2008 to 2010, Smith worked at the International Criminal Court where he oversaw war crimes investigations.

On May 7, 2018, Smith was named to a four-year term as chief prosecutor for the Kosovo Specialist Chambers in The Hague, investigating war crimes in the Kosovo War.

Jack Smith brings his deputy from the Hague — to special counsel team

They would sit back and laugh at your "punishment"

For what, specifically? Which rule of professional conduct did he violate?

He was involved in a conspiracy to interfere in the 2024 election. It was an insurrectionist plot. He and all his liberal cronies need to be charged and tried in a district that is 96% pro Trump. That them face the same kind of jury pool that Trump faced.

It's much simpler to pull his clearance...

That being said, poor old Jack couldn't land the great Orange Whale!!!

Now to get those two DEI POS's in NYC and ATL.

It's my understanding they were not "dismissed" but dropped, "temporarily" due to the fact that a President (to include a President-elect) cannot be prosecuted.

And it's been reported on a few propaganda sites that they can very much be taken back up in January of 2029.
