NEW: A federal agency is investigating former special counsel Jack Smith for allegedly engaging in political activity by charging Trump before the 2024 election. The probe marks another case of the government being weaponized against those seeking accountability. From: @jaknutson.bsky.social

Taking on Smith is like climbing into the octagon with the Terminator.

Corruption is a full time job for the GOP so there is always going to be an excuse from them. Too bad criminal charges can be brought at any time for anyone. Just wasting more taxpayer dollars on a pointless investigation.

Such bullshit. The Hatch Act was violated and is being violated by Mango Mussolini and that's apparently not of concern to the asshat senator in Arkansas. The doj should have said, no.

Cue the investigation that lasts four years with occasional “leaks”, an extra dose of shaking fists and outrage, plenty of Fox air time and ultimately no there there

DEFCON 33 starts this Thursday. Why hasn’t DEFCON disclosed the “New vulnerabilities found in several widely-fielded ballot-marking and DRE voting machines” from LAST YEAR?!?!?!

This is such bullshit. Trump doing exactly what he accused Biden of doing. Freaking ahole.

This sounds like the case an alleged criminal/felon shouldn't be prosecuted if they decide to run for political office. Fortunately, it didn't work for George Santos. Disgracefully, the Supreme Court has given Trump a 'get out of jail free' card for his many infractions of the Hatch Act and grift.

The message here is if you seek to hold republicans accountable for their seditious crimes, expect to be punished so no one ever dares again to confront them on wrong doing.

If this government wishes to give all presidential candidates and aspirants carte Blanche to commit crimes with no legal recourse JUST BECAUSE they are or might run for office, well there are serious problems with that. Perhaps vetting candidates *might* work better. Felons need not run.
