I hope Smith tears Trump such a big one that he will regret ever getting into politics.

I don't agree with your first paragraph; who do you think appointed Jack Smith as special counsel? But I do agree with your last sentence 100%.

I have to admit that this is an outcome I'd buy popcorn for.

If it's a Motel 6 they probably didn't even have working lights.

Are they the ones that give a per hour rate when you ask how much?

That is what worries me. That in fighting the Right, the Left becomes just as bad in being willing to throw law and democracy out the window in order to "win".

Try black lighting the blankets/spreads at most hotels/motels.

Huh?

She said it was good Garland wasn't like Starr, Barr or Durham.

How does that fit with your reply?

I thought I was following Jack Smith on Twitter, but he came across as almost DemAnon, so I'm not sure it was the right account. Can anyone help me out?

Eta: nevermind, I remember now it was a parody account and I didn't follow it.

An understandable worry... it's just that when it's used to justify inaction when action would otherwise be warranted, that's a problem. Carroll's lawsuit is one thing and yeah, you'd have more to work with if everything was only that bad. Unfortunately, in reality, what's triggering you seems to pretty well end up being the concerns that arise from things like that we have serious breaches of national security and what has long been, quite frankly, open and shut cases that are far beyond any actually reasonable doubt and very real likelihood of further breaches of national security specifically because of the delay. That's on top of the old principle that justice delayed too long is justice denied.
