So farewell then, Jack Smith

Judge Tanya Chutkan has dismissed a major case against President-Elect Donald Trump, viz. that he illegally sought to overturn the result of the 2020 presidential election election. 

The dismissal came at the request of Jack Smith, the special prosecutor who brought the criminal case against Trump. Mr Smith cited a Justice Department policy that bans the prosecution of a sitting president.

 Mr Smith has also requested the dismissal of his case charging Mr Trump with improperly storing classified documents dismissed. 

When last seen, Mr Smith was studying for the British bar exams, in anticipation of employment with Britain's new Labour government.
