Mr. Smith Goes (Back) to Washington
Appointing a special counsel shows that the motives of Attorney General Garland are no less political than those of the January 6 committee.

Attorney General Garland himself admits that his appointment of a special counsel â veteran prosecutor John âJackâ Smith â to go after President Trump is prompted by the fact that Mr. Trump will stand for president in 2024 and that President Biden intends to run as well. The New York Times has noted that a special prosecutor would âtheoreticallyâ protect the Justice Department from appearing to launch a âpartisan attackâ on Mr. Trump.
Hah, thatâs a good one.
