It’s official, Jack Smith has officially resigned from the DOJ.
We’re nine days away from President Trump being sworn in and the rats are fleeing the ships!

You can see the filing here:
In the end, he left with only a whimper, reduced to nothing more than a footnote in a legal filing.
What a disastrous legacy.
A coward who will not even be remembered in history, fleeing and resigning in disgrace.
I love this from Publius: “preserve your records Jack”:

Politico had more details:
Special counsel Jack Smith has completed his work on two criminal investigations of President-elect Donald Trump and resigned Friday from the Justice Department.
Word of Smith’s departure came in a court filing Justice Department officials submitted to U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon Saturday afternoon, urging her not to extend a court order she issued last week blocking release of Smith’s final report, which was submitted to department leaders on Tuesday.
Justice Department officials say Cannon’s order overstepped her authority and that she has no power to block Attorney General Merrick Garland from releasing Smith’s findings.
Ultimately though, the story isn’t over.
I agree with George who writes that none of this is over until the tables are turned and the lawfare perpetrators themselves end up in prison:
The lawfare isn't officially over until the perpetrators go to jail.
Jack Smith, Letitia James, Fani Willis, Alvin Bragg, etc, must be locked up.

Justice is coming.
Tick tock.
