The Supreme Court just shut down X’s challenge to Special Counsel Jack Smith’s warrant for President Donald Trump’s @RealDonaldTrump account.
Jack Smith, who admitted to a little “oops” moment in his warrant request, managed to keep things hush-hush.
Meanwhile, X was slapped with a $350K fine for not being quick about handing over records.
Seems a bit excessive.
The Justice Department’s excuse is that they didn’t want President Trump knowing about the subpoena, claiming he might derail their investigation.
The question is, for how much longer will Jack Smith be a nuisance to Trump and his team?

The Gateway Pundit reports:
The US Supreme Court on Monday denied X’s challenge to Special Counsel Jack Smith’s secret search warrant for Trump’s X account.
As previously reported, Special Counsel Jack Smith admitted he included inaccurate information when he asked Judge Beryl Howell, an Obama appointee, for a secret search warrant for Trump’s X/Twitter account @RealDonaldTrump.
X was fined $350,000 because it delayed producing the subpoenaed records.
The search warrant was so secret that Trump didn’t even know Jack Smith issued a subpoena for the records.
Biden’s corrupt Justice Department obtained a nondisclosure order that prohibited X from informing Trump about Jack Smith’s subpoena.
Over the course of the months-long legal battle, X argued that the nondisclosure order violated the First Amendment and Stored Communications Act.
The Justice Department argued Trump would put the so-called ‘ongoing investigation’ in jeopardy.
The DC Circuit Court Appeals previously said the court found that there were “reasonable grounds to believe” that Trump would ‘jeopardize the ongoing investigation’ if he knew about the search warrant.
Jack Smith admitted to Judge Howell (Obama appointee) he included inaccurate information when he suggested Trump would become a flight risk if he learned about the secret gag order.
