House GOP reverses course on Jan. 6 footage, will no longer blur faces

So what ?

The special prosecutor was an inferior officer in the executive branch and the AG had oversight over them. But this special counsel answers to nobody.

Sure he does.

The previous special prosecutors investigated the president.

Not always the case.

With this special counsel, the “AG chose” him off the street without confirmation from the senate and he has investigated and is prosecuting the president’s political opponent.

You misspelled "unAmerican criminal" above.

SC Smith previously served in the DOJ (with distinction) ... serving as an assistant U.S. attorney, acting U.S. attorney, and head of the department's Public Integrity Section.

Prior to that he was an assistant DA in the Manhattan DA's office.

Was also a war crimes prosecutor in the Hague ... in contrast to guy he's currently pursuing who pardoned a literal war criminal.

So Biden has the best of both worlds. He has an unconfirmed prosecutor prosecuting his political opponent with no oversight.

Inaccurate.

He does have a degree of independence but is overseen by the AG.

BTW - Don Cheeto™ declared his candidacy on November 15, 2022 ... three days before SC Smith was appointed.

The Don knew what was coming ...

Yet another case of not knowing how the system works.

Sure he does. Then what’s with “it’s out of our hands”?
If it’s not in his hands then it must be totally in someone else’s hands, right?

So what? The choice is supposed to be a U.S. attorney within the justice department.
Smith went into the private sector before going the The Hague. And before being chosen as special counsel.

We will know soon enough:

Apparently you have absolutely no clue as to how Special Counsels work.

Suggest you read up on it:

Special counsel

Not necessarily.

Your cite of "Julie Kelly" ( ) lacks the full context of what Garland actually said ... so it's pretty much impossible to say for certain what the AG meant exactly.

You could do better - and provide the full context - but my expectations are pretty low that you will - either now or in the future.

One possibility though is that since charges have been brought, it's now in the hands of the court system.

 

[RLENT]

So what?

The choice is supposed to be a U.S. attorney within the justice department.

That isn't what is required under the current regulations: Code of Federal Regulations, Title 28, part 600 (28 CFR §600)

28 CFR Part 600 - PART 600—GENERAL POWERS OF SPECIAL COUNSEL

Smith went into the private sector before going the The Hague. And before being chosen as special counsel.

So what ?

Jack Smith is ILLEGAL! Trump Files Motion to DISMISS

Trump's defense moved to dismiss the Florida classified documents case, arguing Jack Smith's entire appointment and funding are both illegal and unconstitutional. #Trump #SpecialCounsel #Unconstitutio

Quoting some Goober MAGA Twatwaffle™ as some sort of an "authority" ain't too impressive.

Try harder.

A concept foreign to most Maga Minions.

So now the NYT has become the Illustrious Oracle of Truth in MAGAville ?

Too funny.



Fact is: SCOTUS may rule ... or they may not.

We won't know until we know.

Everyone is reporting it. Too funny

Supreme Court decision could come Monday in case about barring Trump from ballot

The Colorado court was the first to invoke a post-Civil War constitutional provision aimed at preventing those who “engaged in insurrection” from holding office
