It's a distraction from what Jack Smith already testified Dec 31, 2025: He has evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump is guilty of attempted election fraud by demanding election officials "find" votes; attempted coup Jan 6; & of stealing classified documents & showing them to random people:

Both indictments referred to throughout Jack Smith's hearing contain very detailed information incriminating Trump regarding his election fraud and theft of classified documents. Special Counsel Jack Smith repeatedly states he believes Trump is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

Special counsel Jack Smith: An affinity fraud is not protected by the 1st Amendment. "In a lot of ways this case was an affinity fraud. The President had people he had built up--who had built up trust in him, including people in his own party, and he preyed on that."

Special prosecutor Jack Smith has evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump was responsible for events of Jan 6, that he chose to endanger VP Pence & members of Congress, that he chose not to stop the rioters even when Trump's trusted advisors told him to stop them, that he intimidated witnesses

Agree. @sarahkendzior.bsky.social writes about the complicity of Garland, & how his mentor was Kushner's lawyer, in her books "Hiding in Plain Sight" & "They Knew." Trump announced his campaign Nov 11, 2022, & Garland's special council investigation by Jack Smith didn't begin until Nov 18, 2022.

Jack Smith lays out the evidence & repeatedly states Trump is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. His indictments cover the fake elector scheme, Jan 6 violence aimed at obstructing certification of election, and espionage in hiding & sharing top secret classified documents after leaving office.

...and nobody is above the law--the difference is in the amount of harm done, one victim in interpersonal crime vs an entire country, entire culture for war crimes. For Jan 6, "Court of Appeals said if the things we said are proven, it would amount to an attack on the structure of our democracy."

Jack Smith: tens of thousands of guests went through Mar-a-Lago from Jan 2021 when Trump left office to August 2022 when the boxes--some containing top secret classified documents--were retrieved. Boxes were stored on a ballroom stage, a storage room, and a bathroom at various times.

During the hearing, GOP members criticized Jack Smith for moving too quickly, amassing too much evidence, not making things more convenient for Trump. Smith mentions Trump has used repeated delays as a tactic to escape justice in the past.

The idea that people want AI oversight to happen "all of a sudden" ignores years of research, warnings, and policy efforts. The delay hasn’t been a lack of awareness; it’s been because of years of industry lobbying against regulation, political resistance, and inaction.

Anthropic refused use of its AI Claude by Pentagon for fully autonomous lethal weapons & mass domestic surveillance of Americans. Presumably other Pentagon AI contractors like Microsoft, OpenAI, Grok, Google are okay with those uses of AI. Microsoft, OpenAI, Google AI assist genocide in Gaza.
