The only choice is Jack Smith.
Why, do I say this?
'Revenge is a dish best served COLD.'

I've never seen anybody cooler under pressure than Jack was bitch-slapping Jim Jordan and his band of loons in deposition last week.

Besides. The traitors will hate AND FEAR what they've so rightly earned for their behavior with Jack as AG.

Trump is going to control the proceeds from the sale of the 50 million barrels, put those proceeds in offshore accounts, and take his Qater gifted jet along with his family to a safe location once things get dicey here. Tsf and Miller have it all planned out. However, I don’t think Miller will make the cut to get on this last plane out.

Guess that was President Biden's worst cabinet appointment.... oh well.

One of the problems with Joe was that he was 'too nice'....
but he will remain one of my favorite Presidents!

11. I would give the next AG the same budget drumpf gave ICE

because it is going to take a massive hiring blitz and probably at least 1000 prosecutors to get through the drumpf regime's crimes.

the only problem is SCOTUS says drumpf is immune and he's probably going to pardon everyone on the way out the door.

so i honestly don't think the major players will ever even see a court room, let alone prison.
