    And her reasoning was, of all things, that the appointment of Special Counsel Jack Smith was illegal. I would have expected her to say that relocating the classified docs to Mar-a-Lago was an official act, done while Trump was still President, but no. She based this idiotic decision on even shakier legal ground. Doesn’t this mean that the appointment of Special Counsel David Weiss was illegal too? Shouldn’t Hunter Biden’s conviction be expunged, based on Judge Cannon’s logic here?

      She’s creating the opportunity to take it to SCOTUS where they will make the appointment of any future Special Counsel illegal. The intent is not to be consistent and it doesn’t have to make sense. Hell, it’s even better if it doesn’t make sense because this erodes the judiciary’s legitimacy; two birds, one stone.

      Americans are in very very deep trouble but they don’t seem to care. The worst part is that the rest of the world will be dragged down with them.
