Summary
Special Counsel Jack Smith’s report concluded that Donald Trump avoided prosecution for January 6-related charges due to his reelection.
The DOJ determined that prosecuting a sitting president violated constitutional protections, despite evidence strong enough to secure a conviction.
Smith noted that Trump’s return to office directly halted legal action and criticized existing DOJ policies and judicial interpretations, which shielded presidents from accountability.
The report underscores how voters, by reinstating Trump, indirectly prevented his criminal prosecution for actions threatening democratic institutions.
People weren’t fighting cops, it was just cops doing what they do best.
There were some. Shooting fireworks and de-arresting their comrades. But yeah, most of the violence was in one direction.
I held the line.
Hell yeah. Gotta organize and show up
I can tell you this, I’m a fuck load more experienced and prepared than when we had to pull a plan out of our asses 4 years ago.
