Judge tosses Trump documents case, ruling prosecutor was unlawfully appointed

Jack Smith wasn't appointed by the President and wasn't confirmed by the Senate. That's the reason for the dismissal. It was obviously just a partisan hit job
Where the fuck in the constitution is there a stipulation that a prosecutor in the executive branch has to be confirmed by the senate? You people can’t keep your shit straight with your “unitary executive” wet dream. Worthless traitor garbage.
No you don’t understand. Commenter was told these talking points. There’s no “thinking” happening here. 🐑
A judge that Trump appointed throwing out a case against Trump is ruling based on partisan politics.
Special prosecutors have been allowed through legal cases for 30 years now at least. They are settled law. Hell, they used one on Hunter Biden recently I believe.
That's DIFFERENT!
You're again spreading misinformation the AG has the say in the appointment of the special counsel.

This isn't the first special council in the United States there have been many of these in the past, with the first one in 1875. Throwing this out would not likely hold up in court due to the long trail of use in the past.
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special_counselThe fact that something deemed unconditional has happened a lot before doesn't justify it as constitutional. Only text can do that.
Congress passed a law deligating the power to the AG. There was a congressional vote to put that law into place. Congress doesn't need to vote on every police officer that the president hires do they?
Do you actually require help breathing or you manage it on your own?
It was an OFFICIAL ACT OF THE PRESIDENCY and therefore LEGAL according to the Supreme Court!
