Smith gave the stenographers in the corporate media everything they needed to keep hyperventilating about Jan. 6 before Trump’s inauguration.
The propaganda press dutifully fell in line with regime messaging Tuesday, as nearly every corporate media outlet ran with headlines claiming President-elect Donald Trump would have been convicted in the Jan. 6 case if he lost re-election — because lawfare specialist Jack Smith said so.
Smith, the former special counsel charged with weaponizing the justice system to go after Trump, released his report on the Jan. 6 prosecution, which was designed for a woefully uncurious media complex to regurgitate nonsense about the bogus case.
“The Department’s view that the Constitution prohibits the continued indictment and prosecution of a President is categorical and does not turn on the gravity of the crimes charged, the strength of the Government’s proof, or the merits of the prosecution, which the Office stands fully behind,” he wrote. “Indeed, but for Mr. Trump’s election and imminent return to the Presidency, the Office assessed that the admissible evidence was sufficient to obtain and sustain a conviction at trial.”
That’s all she wrote, as far as the gleeful stenographers in corporate media were concerned. Smith made it easy for them — they didn’t even have to read the report — all they had to do was skip to the last paragraph to find what Smith wanted them to write about. And they did, time, and time, and time again.

Isn’t this the same Jack Smith the SCOTUS rules 0-9 against when his cases are presented?
