(TheConservativeTimes.org) – Branding him a “disgrace” following his resignation from the Justice Department, President-elect Donald Trump has unleashed a scathing rebuke of Special Counsel Jack Smith.
This latest clash underscores the ongoing battle between Trump and the politically motivated witch hunts against him.
It also highlights the deep-seated frustrations shared by many Americans who feel betrayed by a system that has lost its way.
Trump wasted no time in responding to Smith’s resignation, taking to Truth Social to express his disdain for the special counsel and his investigation.
“Deranged Jack Smith was fired today by the DOJ. He is a disgrace to himself, his family, and his Country. After spending over $100,000,000 on the Witch Hunt against TRUMP, he left town empty handed!” Trump declared.
Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Smith in November 2022 to investigate Trump’s alleged role in the January 6 Capitol riot and mishandling of classified documents.
Smith submitted his final confidential report on January 7, 2025, before resigning.
His departure comes just days before Trump is set to take office, a move that was anticipated given Trump’s previous statements about firing him.
The president-elect’s remarks reflect the sentiment of millions of Americans who have grown weary of the politically motivated investigations designed to undermine Trump and the MAGA movement.
Despite facing numerous legal challenges, Trump has consistently maintained his innocence and branded the investigations as baseless attacks on his presidency and the will of the American people.
Trump stated:
“These cases, like all of the other cases I have been forced to go through, are empty and lawless, and should never have been brought. It was a political hijacking, and a low point in the History of our Country that such a thing could have happened, and yet, I persevered, against all odds, and WON. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
The Special Counsel’s investigation, which cost taxpayers over $100 million, resulted in two federal indictments against Trump: one for alleged election interference and another for mishandling classified documents.
However, these charges have since been dropped due to the Justice Department’s policy against prosecuting a sitting president.
Still, Garland has stated his intention to release Smith’s report, particularly the section concerning Trump’s alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
This move comes after a federal appeals court ruled against blocking the report’s release despite Trump’s legal team’s attempts to prevent its publication.
“As I have made clear regarding every Special Counsel who has served since I took office, I am committed to making as much of the Special Counsel’s report public as possible, consistent with legal requirements and Department policy,” Garland said.
As Trump prepares to take office next week, the American people are left to wonder about the true motives behind these investigations and their impact on the nation’s political landscape.
Many supporters of the President-elect view Smith’s resignation and the dropping of charges as vindication of Trump’s innocence and further proof of the deep state’s failed attempt to undermine his presidency.
With Smith’s departure and the release of his report, the stage is set for a new chapter in American politics.
