Special counsel jack smith was ever a serious lawyer, he lost that distinction tonight. He now has the sole dysfunction of being a political hack. The attack on this nations capitol on january 6th, 2021 was an unprecedented assault on the seat of democracy, the department of justice has remained committed to ensuring accountability for those criminally responsible for what happened that day. This case is brought consistent with that commitment. Laura well by listening to this guy you would think that trump himself was smashing through the glass at the capitol that day.
