Yeah, November 5th, 2024, showed us all that most of America is against Jack. I don't blame him for jumping ship. I wouldn't stick around to deal with the MAGA knuckledraggers, and I especially wouldn't stick around to continue fighting, when command has abandoned me. Jack deserved better.

What a sad, sad day, for AMERICAN JUSTICE. Jack Smith so intelligent, forceful and rightous, fighting for justice, for the AMERICAN PEOPLE. Walk away Jack, you have done your absolute best. Take your talents somewhere you are really valued, you certainly deserve that, its America's loss.
@pdlister garland was a feckless, ineffective doj head who refused to do anything except sit on his hands until it was too late. If he had moved on January 6 in 2021 instead of 2023 maybe people would think differently.
@pdlister Garland waited 2 years before bringing Jack Smith in. Garland failed this country. Garland failed the people of the United States. I PUT THIS WHOLE SITUATION WE ARE IN ON GARLAND
Trump should be DISQUALIFIED for all the reasons stated in the ruling, NOT given a ticket to finish the coup, which he said that he would do if he won... "We're going to finish the coup, and I'm going to use America like it's never been used before." It's abominable that nobody's got the spine to defend democracy. RIP USA.💔🤍💙
Glenn you almost had me in tears on one of your recent videos talking about the failure of judicial integrity and Drumpf. Your patriotism and commitment to the rule of law is an honor to experience.
Actually Jack Smith's move to resign was brilliant. He took the power to fire and harass him away from Trump He didn't give Trump the satisfaction of firing him. This kind of thing makes 45 furious.
I came here to say the same thing. Considering the orange clown's tagline was "You're fired!", I find it delightful that he can't do that. He's being 'robbed' of that opportunity.
@KenZchameleon You're right! He'd eat that up, wouldn't he is such a spotlight hog, attention seeker, show off... I think you get my drift. 😅 The less we have to see Orangina the better off we are.
Jack Smith deserves to return to his family; wherever that may be. I hardly see it as “obeying in advance”. Do not give Trump the opportunity to destroy him financially.
I am sincerely going to miss this brilliant legal strategist. Jack Smith was a bright light in a very dark time. I look forward to him doing more great things in the name of justice and human decency.
Why should the Head of the Executive have any say over special appointments to an independent commission? - That would patently subvert the rule of law. Firing people merely because they perform their functions with impartiality is absolute madness.
If you resign you are able to collect your pension. If you are fired for some reasons there may be a way to withhold benefits. So, he needed to get out before the jackass is inaugurated. He is going to be fine. As well, why give Trump the satisfaction to say “you’re fired”. There is no advantage whatsoever in giving Trump the satisfaction of doing that.
seeing Smith resign has to be even more satisfying than firing him. Smith didn't go down swinging because he knew he was wrong the whole time. He resigned in shame and defeat. I can't wait to see Smith in prison.
The voters gave Trump all the satisfaction, they are the legitiment judges and jury, Enough saw through the attempt to establish an ruinous absolute monarchy.
I want my TAX DOLLARS BACK, They could have been used for something Good for America like Building the Wall or Deportation a few thousand Illegal Aliens
Once the convict fires the cowardly Garland he can suck the teat of the US tax payer and live on his bloated pension! Same with old turtleneck McConnell, when we get rid of him on the 20th. Two old loses that betrayed this country!
Thank you Brian! Where is the mainstream media on this issue and why haven't they been making your arguments all along. It's not enough to choose good people for your administration. You have to put them in the right positions to let their skills shine. Kamala Harris should've been the US Attorney General and Merrick Garland should've been a Supreme Court Judge.
Thank you, Mr. Cohen and Mr. Kirschner, for your updates, work, and commentary. Jack Smith choosing the way to exit by resigning the position he was appointed to is great.
If I were in Mr. Smith’s position, I believe he quit not only because his Special Council position was no longer available as the job is finished but probably to save his dignity and have the satisfaction of having done a job well done and not wait for a public humiliation of being fired dismissively by someone who does not value anyone but himself. Mr. Smith has stood up like no one else did and has faced bravely all what he could in spite of a huge adversity. We stand by him and his character, intelligence, and perseverance. I hope he can continue to serve with an increased capacity when he is ready and wherever and whatever he chooses to do. Thank you Mr. Smith for your service 👏👏👏
Add to that a SCOTUS that ignores our Constitutional rights and made 45 believe he’s king. McConnell is responsible for a minimum of 2. And anyone who honestly looks at that history, (one year too close, 2 months is not too close) would agree.
Also don't forget the Supreme Court's role in delaying Trump's DC trial. The trial could have been completed before the election if they didn't decide to take the ridiculous motion and delay their ruling as long as possible.
So sad to see our justice system fall to the power of money and influence. There was overwhelming evidence for these cases and the rich get away with the crimes any of us would have been in prison for years ago. I can't believe the maga fanatics voted for him so he could completely evade justice, with the help of the corrupt supreme court. We are completely losing our country.
Oh no that is not fair I agree with you, there is much blame to go around. All those who said it was down to Trump started it when knowing the truth they preferred to deny it! Doing a complete 360, followed by McConnell! Saying there was another way to go re Trump. So it went down and down! So here we are, who would credit it! A felon POTUS, kept out of jail!
@@lynnselmser-wilson4493 Political parties, Congress, the President, and even the Supreme Court seem unnecessary when many of them are corrupt, dishonest in their rise to power, and funded by wealthy elites. I hold all three branches of government accountable for this situation; they violated their oaths as soon as they took office. While not everyone in these positions is corrupt, there are enough to create significant issues. Now we find ourselves with a convicted felon and sex offender as President, which is shameful. Additionally, the voters who supported Trump and believe he cares about them or their families share some responsibility. It is now the duty of the public to oversee these branches, and we must take action because many officials do not care, while those who do often feel powerless. There must be serious changes in our government, if we wish to stop Trump and his oligarch friend, from making American a fascist and oligarchy regime.
Actually they made that up. Trump couldn't even fire his stupid son-in-law, face to face. He tried to get someone else to do it, and when Jared came running to him, he caved. On TV it was all scripted and not face to face. He couldn't even fire people in person during his first occupation of the White House - he used Twitter.
The reason he quit is that once sentence was passed, this particular Office of Special Counsel no longer existed. The case was closed. Besides that, he was IN that office on a leave of absence from his full-time job at the Hague, prosecuting war criminals. If we invade either Greenland or Canada, he may be facing the orange stain, again.
I expect him to go back to The Hague to prosecute tRump there. The chance of him committing a war crime or violating some international law is high, if he hasn’t already
Thank you for your hard work and dedication please be safe, be strong and return to good work with The Hague for the ICC and great success prosecuting International Criminals, including Americans arrested overseas.
Brilliantly summed up Brian and Glenn. Watching all this from New Zealand for the last four or five years I constantly shake my head at the uselessness and inactivity of the DOJ and Merrick Garland along with subservience of so many of the media. All I can do is wish you luck. All the best
Garland failure Jack the hero. Jan 6 committee put the evidence on trump criminal act right in his lap. He said he had to start from the bottom the top on the case. Garland makes me think either he was down with trump or he was afraid of trump. Maybe they threatened him and his family.
If it helps, think of an impeachment as an indictment rather than a conviction. The impeachment says, “Yep, he did something wrong and we think there’s enough for a conviction so we’re pushing this to the next level.”
During the second impeachment hearing, McConnell chose to lay the responsibility for holding DT accountable on the Justice Department. Merrick Garland completely and utterly failed in that regard and here we are. Democrats did this to themselves.
Amen. And May the Good Lord, Bless him, mightily, as he goes forward in the future. This excellent, Public Servant, deserves better, than to have to work under the Devil, himself! He did his Job, well despite the persecutions & slanders, of the crooked, House GOP and MAGA flunkies & the Gangster, himself! We are reassured, that he served the People, well & it is time to move on! Deal with what is real, Folks - as many of YOU could have Voted better or even had the initiative, to get up, OFF Your "rusty dusty!" & Place Your badly, needed Vote - at ALL! Now, We ALL have to deal with the Consequences! May God have Mercy on US! --------- Psalms 10 & 21 & 34 & 37.
It is customary and normal for key players in the outgoing administration to resign before the new administration comes in. There is no point to him waiting to be fired. I anticipate Jack Smith has a very good career move lined up for him next.
Jack Smith was working for Trump ! He dragged his feet for FOUR LONG YEARS without putting Trump on trial. It's mission accomplished......he kept Trump from being thrown in prison. Now he can resign and take his BRIBERY PAYOFF ! ! ! ! ! !!!!!!!!
Thank you Mr. Smith. You are a man who has shown the world that Trump can be held accountable. You are an American hero, the world needs more people with your morals.
Jack Smith did a stellar job against insurmountable odds! If it was not for croooked Aileen Cannon, he would have surely got a conviction on the documents case. 😭
@Leonaza7 you speak truth and facts as always, Leonaza7. It's good to see you. Take care and stay safe, my internet friend if I may refer and consider you as a friend. 💙🇺🇲💙
No, he didn't. If he would have called for Cannon to recuse herself - or force her removal - we may have actually seen a conviction in the documents case. But he let her stay the judge and look at what happened. He screwed up.
Garland should be investigated and prosecuted for his incompetence and aiding in letting criminals go unpunished for their crimes while it was his job to investigate and prosecute criminals.
He may be going back to the HAGUE in the Netherlands to prosecute war criminals, which is what he was doing before being called back to be Special counsel. He will be out of the country if he is doing this
Accepting a pardon means accepting that you are guilty of the crime mentioned. I doubt very much that Smith would do that. Liz Cheney said she would refuse a pardon for that reason.
@@carolannhartley359oh and we all know how trustworthy she is. As long as you help to keep those wars going and the Haliburton stocks money rolling in she'll be your BF FOR EVER. Yep, she well organize another lovely impeachment with all the bells and whistles as you help get that peace loving,war hating Trump out of office she and her daddy took a real financial beating last time he came in and shut the war machine down
Once Trump had been sentenced, the office of the Special Counsel ceased to exist. Smith did not right thing, so he could return to his old job at the Hague with head held high.
Exactly Or give Trump the satisfaction of firing him. I wouldn't; nor would I work 1 day under Trump. Trump would commit a crime right in front of Jack's face and there would be nothing Smith could do.
I agree with Jack he did his job! And he should get out of town, the country, with his family to be safe and move on with his career! Thank you 🙏 Jack for your service 💙🗽⚖️🇺🇸🫡
Everyone can choose to “blame” Jack Smith and/or AG Garland if they want to but the truth is our Forefathers created this 3 branch government system (I.e., the executive, the judicial and the legislative) with the idea of preventing the type of leadership Trump is operating now. They expected this system to be able to handle this type of issue by holding each other accountable. However, the problem is our current occupants of the respective branches are not holding up to their responsibilities and obligations.
It is pathetic that the Right tied Jack Smith's hands. He did amazing moral work, and he wasn't allowed to follow up on his findings. The American people deserves to know that information and deserves to see justice served.
@@munchezfonataba Google is a search engine. TH-cam is a video hosting site. Both have plenty of 'evidence' of a flat earth, bigfoot, and the aliens that built stonehenge, Neither are verifiable sources on their own. Your accusation, your burden of proof.
Brian's argument(s) is very idealistic. The morality of the argument is valid, the reality may be impractical. Jack Smith may weigh the potential he has for doing good in a different position, possibly returning to chasing war crimes, as having greater potential contribution to humanity than beating his head against the wall of American stupidity and corruption. I certainly can't condemn Jack Smith. Jack is not the criminal in this conversation.
Jack did the right thing, he is always 12 steps ahead, watch what happens now, Donald dodo is too inept to see this coming, but it's brilliant. Jack is professional and surgical.
God willing, Jack Smith is already moving to an amazing position that will utilise his skills to the best benefit of his family and those he serves - you know, people who are grateful to receive those skills. I thank him for what he has done and wish him and his family Godspeed.
BTC is a hard-hitting journalist who cares about the truth and teams up with people who really know their stuff and care about the rule of law! A great combination for we the people to get the answers we need!
Jack Smith is a hero to me, Joe Biden should definitely give him a preemptive pardon, as well as anyone that Trump and his evil cult will definitely go after. Trump is the worst thing that ever happened to this country.

Jack took that joy from him. You can't fire me! I quit.
Actually they made that up. Trump couldn't even fire his stupid son-in-law, face to face. He tried to get someone else to do it, and when Jared came running to him, he caved. On TV it was all scripted and not face to face. He couldn't even fire people in person during his first occupation of the White House - he used Twitter.
Bingo !!!!
The reason he quit is that once sentence was passed, this particular Office of Special Counsel no longer existed. The case was closed. Besides that, he was IN that office on a leave of absence from his full-time job at the Hague, prosecuting war criminals. If we invade either Greenland or Canada, he may be facing the orange stain, again.
I agree! Don't give Trump the pleasure to fire him.
He left with grace, all in good timing with a job well-done.
Jack Smith did his job...Our justice system failed him and all of us sane people...
Jack tried and justice was denied
I expect him to go back to The Hague to prosecute tRump there. The chance of him committing a war crime or violating some international law is high, if he hasn’t already
Preaching to the choir Brother
Exactly. It's abominable that nobody's got the spine to defend democracy. RIP USA.💔🤍💙
@@marcosolo6491 Corruption runs deep, even into SCOTUS
Dear Jack Smith, so sorry America failed you!
Thank you for your service, and may you and your family be protected by divine grace. 🙏
🙏🏻 I agree
AMEN TO THAT .... GOD BLESS & PROTECT HIM FROM THE EVIL OF TRUMP ( THE ANTI-CHRIST )
Thank you for your hard work and dedication please be safe, be strong and return to good work with The Hague for the ICC and great success prosecuting International Criminals, including Americans arrested overseas.
Dear America sorry America failed you.
That's right Jack I would leave too Trump can't fire you no better than you can fire yourself good luck Jack🙏🙏🙏🙏
Brilliantly summed up Brian and Glenn. Watching all this from New Zealand for the last four or five years I constantly shake my head at the uselessness and inactivity of the DOJ and Merrick Garland along with subservience of so many of the media. All I can do is wish you luck. All the best
You were called too late, Mr. Smith, and we owe you a lot. Thank you for your service.👏
Thank you for you for your service
No body wants to be stick around for when Trump is going to ruin united states
@@equipage72 Biden owes Americas affordable homes and food. Yet you on TH-cam applauding a man who gave another man bogus charges.
Thank you for all your hard work Jack Smith. Shame on Garland for dropping the ball over and over again.
I'm not even sure Garland ever picked up the ball.
@HelenByrd-yf9cf You have a point.
At this point Garland probably wouldn't even act if Trump put him in prison.
Garland failure Jack the hero. Jan 6 committee put the evidence on trump criminal act right in his lap. He said he had to start from the bottom the top on the case. Garland makes me think either he was down with trump or he was afraid of trump. Maybe they threatened him and his family.
The Senate not impeaching him is where this all began. We wouldn't be here right now if they had voted to impeach.😮
The House did impeach. Twice. The Senate then chose not to convict and remove.
@Isliandra correct. Bunch of boot licking coward traitors
If it helps, think of an impeachment as an indictment rather than a conviction. The impeachment says, “Yep, he did something wrong and we think there’s enough for a conviction so we’re pushing this to the next level.”
Republicans did not want to impeach Trump.
During the second impeachment hearing, McConnell chose to lay the responsibility for holding DT accountable on the Justice Department. Merrick Garland completely and utterly failed in that regard and here we are. Democrats did this to themselves.
Jack Smith is our hero and he should have been the DOJ head of the whole dept.
I see this as - Jack Smith was brought in to do one job. Job is done, so he's going back to his normal world.
Much respect to Jack Smith.
Maybe he'll be seeing Mr. Trump again.
At the Hague.
Or with any luck, seeing that wanted man, Vladimyr Vladimyrovich Putler.
If America is out of the business of prosecuting war criminals, don't worry, the rest of the world isn't.
I thought the same thing
🙏
yes, he is setting up his new office (?)
Jack Smith went there on his own terms, and he left on his own terms. Thank you for your service, Mr Smith.
Good for you, Jack Smith!! He’s a patriot!!
Definitely NOT he pretended led many on and did ZERO he is a traitor like Garland and all infiltrators and rightwing treasonous republikkkans
Dont think you know what a Patriot is
. Certainly isn't maga. FACT!!!
@@coltscards1338🤡
@ I know EXACTLY what a patriot is!
If he goes back to chasing WAR CRIMINALS…perhaps he will get another bite at the apple! Good for him! I hope we get to see him again….soon!!!
The ICC has no jurisdiction over the United States
Thank you, Jack Smith, for your service to our country.
Agree. Thank you Jack Smith for all you did and your Service to our Country. Many Blessing
his prison time is coming. gear up :)
@@bernicehenson5210 Garland is a disgrace !!! top of the list in the spineless.
He made the right decision. He chose his exit.
Exactly!!!! 👍
Especially as he met with resistance every step of the way. If I was Jack Smith, I would be very unhappy and feel betrayed by his country.
Amen. And May the Good Lord, Bless him, mightily, as he goes forward in the future. This excellent, Public Servant, deserves better, than to have to work under the Devil, himself! He did his Job, well despite the persecutions & slanders, of the crooked, House GOP and MAGA flunkies & the Gangster, himself!
We are reassured, that he served the People, well & it is time to move on! Deal with what is real, Folks - as many of YOU could have Voted better or even had the initiative, to get up, OFF Your "rusty dusty!" & Place Your badly, needed Vote - at ALL! Now, We ALL have to deal with the Consequences! May God have Mercy on US! --------- Psalms 10 & 21 & 34 & 37.
Well done Jack Smith, so proud of you for not giving in, and bumping the Republicans !!!!
Walk away proudly, there was no fear in you 👍🏽
Trump defeated him!
It is customary and normal for key players in the outgoing administration to resign before the new administration comes in. There is no point to him waiting to be fired. I anticipate Jack Smith has a very good career move lined up for him next.
Jack Smith did an excellent job!!! He left no stone unturned and did not give Cannon the time of day! I salute you, Mr. SMITH!!!!!!
Jack Smith was working for Trump ! He dragged his feet for FOUR LONG YEARS without putting Trump on trial. It's mission accomplished......he kept Trump from being thrown in prison. Now he can resign and take his BRIBERY PAYOFF ! ! ! ! ! !!!!!!!!
Called in way too late by a craven and incompetent Attorney General!
@@tomtheeagle1 Tom the Chicken, please shut up. Read what happened.
Why read when it is recorded live on many cameras and then broadcast all over the world,
Thank you Mr. Smith. You are a man who has shown the world that Trump can be held accountable. You are an American hero, the world needs more people with your morals.
Jack Smith knows what he’s doing. Give him full respect for all his work and current decision.
To Jack Smith I Say, "Thank you Sir."
Jack Smith did a stellar job against insurmountable odds! If it was not for croooked Aileen Cannon, he would have surely got a conviction on the documents case. 😭
Thank you for standing up for the American people , you are truly the epitome of integrity, strength, honesty.. You will be missed.
@Leonaza7 you speak truth and facts as always, Leonaza7. It's good to see you. Take care and stay safe, my internet friend if I may refer and consider you as a friend. 💙🇺🇲💙
I never see you on MTN anymore. Nice to see you're still around.
Some of tumps demons rubbed off on cannon
No, he didn't. If he would have called for Cannon to recuse herself - or force her removal - we may have actually seen a conviction in the documents case. But he let her stay the judge and look at what happened. He screwed up.
Jack Smith America loves you. God Bless You and Yours Forevermore.
Garland should be investigated and prosecuted for his incompetence and aiding in letting criminals go unpunished for their crimes while it was his job to investigate and prosecute criminals.
Thank You Jack Smith, for all your extremely difficult work! Wishing all the best, for you and your family.
Jack Smith needs to be given a pardon by President Biden no matter what to save him from maga/DT retribution...
I 100% agree. 👍
He may be going back to the HAGUE in the Netherlands to prosecute war criminals, which is what he was doing before being called back to be Special counsel. He will be out of the country if he is doing this
Accepting a pardon means accepting that you are guilty of the crime mentioned. I doubt very much that Smith would do that. Liz Cheney said she would refuse a pardon for that reason.
Jack doesn't need a pardon or protection from the US. He is beyond that.
@@carolannhartley359oh and we all know how trustworthy she is. As long as you help to keep those wars going and the Haliburton stocks money rolling in she'll be your BF FOR EVER. Yep, she well organize another lovely impeachment with all the bells and whistles as you help get that peace loving,war hating Trump out of office she and her daddy took a real financial beating last time he came in and shut the war machine down
Thank you for your work, Mr. Jack Smith! You are a hero for the United States.
We can't expect good will from folks who are bereft of good will. We can't expect negotiations in good faith from folks who only have bad faith.
I respect Jack Smith leaving on his terms. Thank you sir for all you have done and tried to do in the name of justice.
I wouldn't want to give the 2x impeached, 34x convicted felon the opportunity to fire me.
Once Trump had been sentenced, the office of the Special Counsel ceased to exist. Smith did not right thing, so he could return to his old job at the Hague with head held high.
Exactly my thoughts. There is no justice while Trump is in office and it has nothing to do with politics. Just the law and morality...
Exactly Or give Trump the satisfaction of firing him. I wouldn't; nor would I work 1 day under Trump. Trump would commit a crime right in front of Jack's face and there would be nothing Smith could do.
Jail for Jack Smith! Investigation time😊
I wouldn't neither
I agree with Jack he did his job! And he should get out of town, the country, with his family to be safe and move on with his career! Thank you 🙏 Jack for your service 💙🗽⚖️🇺🇸🫡
Everyone can choose to “blame” Jack Smith and/or AG Garland if they want to but the truth is our Forefathers created this 3 branch government system (I.e., the executive, the judicial and the legislative) with the idea of preventing the type of leadership Trump is operating now. They expected this system to be able to handle this type of issue by holding each other accountable. However, the problem is our current occupants of the respective branches are not holding up to their responsibilities and obligations.
It is pathetic that the Right tied Jack Smith's hands. He did amazing moral work, and he wasn't allowed to follow up on his findings. The American people deserves to know that information and deserves to see justice served.
He fabricated things up.
The more you learn, the more you'll be disappointed with people you trust. 😂😂😂

Jack Smith, you served us and your country well. YOU were let down in the worst possible way. I am so sorry but I have to thank you for everything.
Jack Smith deserves the Presidential medal of freedom for his fight against fascism.
Well of course and wouldn't he fit right in with crooked Hillary and the most destructive, AND EVIL MONSTRRand pure evil one SOROS
Brian's argument(s) is very idealistic. The morality of the argument is valid, the reality may be impractical. Jack Smith may weigh the potential he has for doing good in a different position, possibly returning to chasing war crimes, as having greater potential contribution to humanity than beating his head against the wall of American stupidity and corruption. I certainly can't condemn Jack Smith. Jack is not the criminal in this conversation.
Jack is still our HERO
Jack did the right thing, he is always 12 steps ahead, watch what happens now, Donald dodo is too inept to see this coming, but it's brilliant. Jack is professional and surgical.
God willing, Jack Smith is already moving to an amazing position that will utilise his skills to the best benefit of his family and those he serves - you know, people who are grateful to receive those skills. I thank him for what he has done and wish him and his family Godspeed.
BTC is a hard-hitting journalist who cares about the truth and teams up with people who really know their stuff and care about the rule of law! A great combination for we the people to get the answers we need!
Jack Smith is a hero to me, Joe Biden should definitely give him a preemptive pardon, as well as anyone that Trump and his evil cult will definitely go after. Trump is the worst thing that ever happened to this country.
To the world.
Americas are the worst thing that's happened to America!
