God, it must REALLY SUCK being a LWNJ today!!

Y'all LOST ON ALL FRONTS!!


Special counsel Jack Smith is in talks with senior Justice Department officials about how to end his two federal criminal cases against President-elect Donald Trump in line with a longstanding department policy that sitting presidents cannot be prosecuted, sources told ABC News.

 CNN had previously reported, based on sources close to Smith and the DOJ, that the special counsel was likely to keep pursuing the cases against Trump, for his role in the Jan. 6 insurrection and his mishandling of classified documents, even if the former president won a return to the office.

 “He’s not going to be the one to say, ‘I’m going to fold the tent,’” a former DOJ official told CNN.

 In contrast to his predicted defiance, though, it now seems like Smith will instead seek to wind the cases down.
