Hot damn. I knew it. Thanks for the great news, Tom!

Jack Smith saw that Trump had "left no stone unturned" (no left turn unstoned?)., in trying to overturn the election.

Too many avenues, too many actors, too many too many logical (legal) paths to the conclusion (conviction). Hence, once SCOTUS set the rules of the game, all Jack and his team had to do was restructure their arguments. His crime nodes with his action connections, made for a nicely filled graph.

Put another way, Trump had drilled so many holes in his boat it was gonna sink. The court could only protect so much, they couldn't plug enough holes to keep the boat from sinking.

At least, that is the basis upon which Jack has filed his new case.

We threw out what we had to, justified the use of anything we're using which might lie within the outer perimeter of immunity, illustrated how the other evidence clearly lies outside the region of immunity, and have thus provided the court with a super-seceding indictment on the same charges.

Nicely packaged. Well done.

I can't wait to read the whole thing. It should be glorious.

We’ll see just how bought the court is.
