Following the dismissal of Jack Smith‘s classified documents case against former president Donald Trump, the Hollywood left has descended into a collective meltdown.
The big win for Trump came after U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon handed down her decision on Monday.
Cannon said in her 93-page decision that Smith’s appointment was “unlawful” and unconditional.
“The clerk is directed to close this case,” she wrote.
NBC News reported:
She issued the decision on the first day of the Republican National Convention, two days after an assassination attempt against Trump.
Trump praised the ruling in a statement that referred to Saturday’s shooting and said other criminal cases against him should be tossed out, as well. A source who spoke directly with Trump said he was “surprised” but “very happy” with Cannon’s decision.
Smith’s team indicated it would appeal Cannon’s decision.
“The dismissal of the case deviates from the uniform conclusion of all previous courts to have considered the issue that the Attorney General is statutorily authorized to appoint a Special Counsel,” spokesperson Peter Carr said in a statement.
“The Justice Department has authorized the Special Counsel to appeal the court’s order.”
Meanwhile, Trump Derangement Syndrome sufferers such as Rob Reiner reacted to the news in a frenzied rant.
With Judge Cannon’s dismissal of the Trump stolen documents case, we’re seeing the beginning of the end of the Rule of Law in America.

Judge Aileen Cannon has dismissed the entire Trump classified documents case. She claims the case should be thrown out because the appointment of special counsel Jack Smith violates the Constitution. Her decision is sure to be appealed. https://t.co/Xm8xmNULy0
