He dismissed his own case because DOJ guidelines said he had to. How is that a political hit job?

I would have liked to know jack smith holy opinion of senator Joe Biden actions. You could have also asked him if he agreed with Robert Hur in dropping the case but he wouldn’t have answered anything.

Damn you lawyer boys love corruption, especially when it's aimed at taking down President Trump.

One dumb Senator made one dumb mistake yesterday, and it energized you and sfplc so much that you posted in that thread for the next 10 hours.

Does anyone know the specific basis these groups are arguing that the report should be released to the public?
It is an investigative summary, right? Those generally are not released to the public unless entered in to a court record.

Are you aware of any other special counsel reports that have not been made public?

I skimmed the briefs a while ago and two arguments stood out proud to me:

1. One is that historical precedent not releasing a final special counsel report is not an outlier but an actual anomaly over several decades of Department of Justice practice, even when the prosecution was closed or dropped.

2. The more directly compelling argument, with plenty of case law support, is that Volume 2 was indeed submitted to the court in support of a substantive motion and thus is a judicial record. This should be a simple binary fact pattern. If it was submitted, then it is a judicial record and should be released.

There were other arguments, such as 1A, general transparency, and congressional oversight. I found them less individually compelling.
