Former Special Counsel Jack Smith delivered remarks at George Mason University this week, warning of the weaponization of the Justice Department under the Trump administration.
Jack Smith is an honorable man, a truth teller. He did all he could to see justice done, not for his own ends, but for the country he served. He was betrayed by the courts including the highest court in the US. His heart must break knowing what he does and watching the DOJ abandon the rule of law.
Thank you Special Counsel, Mr. Jack Smith! You brought sunlight where there was fog. You did a stupendous service for the American Populace. I actually screamed when the “Orange Miscreant” aka trump—went FREE. You were correct in all of your polemics as a seasoned DOJ prosecutor. You are to be applauded and I will never forget what you’ve done for We The People! Again, thanks ever so much, Mr. Smith. You are the epitome of righteousness and courage, SIR.
It's so gratifying to see all these comments! Jack is my hero and he got such a raw deal that it makes me sick. A friend and I put together a sign for her to carry in the "No Kings" rally. A huge picture of Jack and underneath: JACK SMITH FOR PRESIDENT.
Thanks to you and Andy for all your podcasting about all things Jack ( can’t remember if that was an actual saying or not!); glad Andy was in the audience, I’m sure everything Jack said hit home hard, and sadly. Carry on, all of you folks
He should get a special commendation of some sort for dealing with Aileen Cannon. I cannot believe that the 11th Circuit didn’t yank her because of her obvious bias. But her convoluted explanations of some of her bizarre decisions were no worse than the SCOTUS majority and their immunity ruling.
That the American voters betrayed Jack Smith is the one thing I cannot forgive.
I think the ones who betrayed Jack Smith were the ones voting MAGA. That was not even half the total voters in the country.
No we didn’t how do you figure?
There are soooo many things I will never forgive.
Jack Smith, American hero - enough said.
Yes I felt bad he collected all the evidence and couldn’t use it because Trump delayed and delayed court
We have gone far past irony, but it’s worth noting Trump**, the master of delay, is irked because criminal trials don’t happen quickly enough.
Trump doesn’t want his targets for prosecution to even get due process.
Not TFG. The corrupted white supremacist Supreme Court. THEY delayed their opinion to give him maximum protection.
They must be removed.
In these dark days, TRUE Americans, like Jack Smith, are the only hope we have of someday becoming a real democratic nation again.

So happy to see Jack Smith taking center stage.
I am an American, a prosecutor and a Patriot, and I believe in the Rule of Law to govern a safe and free society. Thank you, Jack Smith ⚖️
I still stand with Jack Smith.
SAME!
Allison, I so appreciate your honest reporting. The topics are so important and relevant and fierce. The fight continues.

My hero, Jack Smith, the bravest of souls, we all stand with you and commend you!!
Jack Smith was, and is, my hero. I really wish he had had the opportunity to try his cases against our current...leader....

He will be back
Is there a recording of his full speech somewhere? I’d definitely watch/listen.
I saw a link to an Apple podcast on Unjustified station but it wasn’t available yet

He truly deserved better.
He should get a special commendation of some sort for dealing with Aileen Cannon. I cannot believe that the 11th Circuit didn’t yank her because of her obvious bias. But her convoluted explanations of some of her bizarre decisions were no worse than the SCOTUS majority and their immunity ruling.
Yea she was clearly prejudicial & should have been pulled.
