HUGE! Judge DISMISSES Trump’s Case

Jack Smith’s case against Trump didn’t stand a chance.

And Judge Aileen Cannon just made sure of that.

Case DISMISSED!

On the grounds that the funding ol’ Smith was getting was illegal.

Oh, isn’t that a shame?

Poor guy.

Maybe he should stand on trial now, eh?

Time for the tables to turn.

Case dismissed. Florida Judge Aileen Cannon tossed the documents case against Trump on the grounds Special Counsel Jack Smith was unlawfully appointed/unconstitutional. So was the Jan 6 Select Comm. Time to clean house/enforce the constitution.

NBC News reports:

The Florida judge overseeing Donald Trump’s classified documents trial dismissed the case against the president Monday on the grounds that the appointment of and funding for special counsel Jack Smith was illegal.

U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon, a Trump nominee, said in her 93-page decision that Smith’s appointment was “unlawful” and unconditional.”The clerk is directed to close this case,” the judge wrote.

The decision came on the first day of the Republican National Convention, and following an assassination attempt on the former president over the weekend. Trump praised the ruling in a statement that referenced Saturday’s shooting and said other criminal cases against him should be tossed as well. A source who spoke directly with the former president said that he was “surprised” but “very happy” with Cannon’s decision.

A White House spokesman referred inquiries on the Trump classified documents case being dismissed to the Department of Justice. The Justice Department, the special counsel’s office and the Trump campaign did not immediately respond to requests for comment.Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Smith as special counsel in November 2022, tasking him with overseeing the federal investigations into Trump’s handling and retention of classified documents after he left office as well as his efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results.

Rep Thomas Massie knew…

🚨 Last month I questioned AG Garland about the constitutionality of Jack Smith’s appointment. He did not have good answers.

Fast forward: Judge Cannon just dismissed the classified documents case against Trump citing the unconstitutionality of Smith’s appointment! https://t.co/O0LQajNL8l
