Despite Justice Thomas’s concerns, courts reaching back to the early 1970s have repeatedly rejected efforts to question the legality of independent prosecutors. Those have included the Supreme Court upholding the appointment of Leon Jaworski, one of the special prosecutors who investigated the Watergate scandal, in a decision that was largely focused on the issue of President Richard Nixon’s claims of executive privilege.Civilian smith has no authority. Numbnuts Thomas and the rest of the supreme court is the final authority. Not your banana republic ambulance chasing attorneys
Judges have also tossed out efforts to invalidate the work of special counsels like Robert S. Mueller III, who examined connections between Russia and Mr. Trump’s 2016 campaign, and David C. Weiss, who has brought two criminal cases against Hunter Biden, President Biden’s son.
As a caveat I will say the conservatives on the Court have repeatedly turned a blind eye to precedent and black letter law in pursuit of their political agenda.
