It was a win for justice.
And a blow to the radical socialists in the DOJ and Deep State.
The government’s lawfare cases against Trump are dwindling …
Special Counsel Jack Smith’s shaky classified documents case against Trump was just dismissed by U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon.
Jack Smith is an ideological radical bureaucrat whose goal is to stop Trump at any cost (see my article: The Little-Known Dirty Little Secret Behind the DOJ Special Council to Destroy Trump: 3 Things You Should Know)
Cannon ruled that Special Counsel Smith’s appointment violated the Appointments Clause of the United States Constitution.
The Appointments Clause stipulates that the president must nominate and confirm officers by the Senate. Smith had the powers of a principal officer and had not gone through such an appointment process.
Judge Cannon found that no statutory authority allowed the head of the Justice Department to appoint such inferior officers.
“Is there a statute in the United States Code that authorizes the appointment of Special Counsel Smith to conduct this prosecution? After careful study of this seminal issue, the answer is no,” the judge wrote.
Judge Cannon argued that:
“The Court is convinced that Special Counsel Smith’s prosecution … breaches two structural cornerstones of our constitutional scheme — the role of Congress in appointing constitutional officers, and the role of Congress in authorizing expenditures by law.”
Although Judge Cannon’s ruling has crushed Smith’s “classified documents” case against Trump, the ruling will not affect the Jan 6th case against former President Trump in the District of Columbia.
That’s because due to a technicality, DC District Court Judge Beryl Howell ruled that special counsel Robert Mueller was lawfully appointed in that district, and the decision was upheld on appeal in 2019.
The circuit court decision gives Smith prosecutorial authority in that jurisdiction unless the Florida case dismissal is appealed to the Supreme Court.
Prosecutors will appeal Cannon’s ruling and file a motion to remove her from presiding over the case.
This case should have been dismissed from the start.
It was an obvious case of lawfare against a former president.
Presidents have the authority to declassify documents and to keep documents for their personal records… every modern president has done so without any problem.
But the DOJ showed its double standards and two-tiered justice by prosecuting Trump and not doing anything to Biden, even though Biden took thousands of classified documents. At the same time, he was a senator and vice president and had no power or authority to do so.
The Supreme Court must rule on this unprecedented use of the federal government to go after and destroy a former president and political opponent.
This was a great decision and set a clear path for justice in the future.
