    Remember how the Biden regime tried to distract from their disastrous pullout of Afghanistan by drone-striking a group of “ISIS-K fighters” but it turned out they actually just killed 10 random innocent Afghan civilians, 7 of whom were children?

    Remember how no one was punished for said war crimes even though the Pentagon were forced to admit they lied about the strike?

    From Reuters, “U.S. Justice Dept. names war crimes expert as special counsel for Trump probes”:

    U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland on Friday named Jack Smith, a war crimes prosecutor, to serve as special counsel to oversee Justice Department investigations related to Donald Trump including the former president’s handling of sensitive documents and efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

    Garland’s announcement came three days after Trump, a Republican, announced he would run for president again in 2024. Garland said Trump’s candidacy, as well as Democratic President Biden’s stated intention to run for re-election, made the appointment of a special counsel necessary.

    Special counsels are sometimes appointed to investigate politically sensitive cases and they do their jobs with a degree of independence from the Justice Department leadership.

    “The pace of the investigations will not pause or flag under my watch,” Smith said in a statement. “I will exercise independent judgment and will move the investigations forward expeditiously and thoroughly to whatever outcome the facts and the law dictate.”

    Smith will oversee the investigation into Trump’s handling of government documents after leaving the White House last year and the probe into attempts to interfere with the peaceful transfer of power following the 2020 election, Garland said.

    Trump had a special counsel harassing him over the Russiagate hoax for most of his presidency and now he’s going to have another special counsel harassing him while he runs for second term.

    Trump responded to the news in a speech at Mar-a-Lago, calling the appointment “rigged deal” and a “horrendous abuse of power” that’s “the latest in a long series of witch hunts.”
