Special Counsel Jack Smith has demonstrated two traits since charging President Donald J. Trump with crimes. First and foremost, he’s a thin-skinned man controlled by the UniParty Swamp on behalf of the Globalist Elite Cabal. Second, he is so fearful of the truth coming out that he wants the trial to take place in a SCIF somewhere with no information leaking before he manufactures a guilty verdict.
Both of these traits were on display in his most recent filing that wants Trump silenced by not allowing the trial to be televised. In question is the use of the phrase “political witch hunt” or anything like it.
According to his filing:
The defendant peppers his response with various references to “fairness,” but what he actually seeks is to defy a uniform and longstanding broadcast prohibition that was crafted precisely with fair and orderly trial proceedings in mind. He desires instead to create a carnival atmosphere from which he hopes to profit from distracting, like many fraud defendants try to do, from the charges against him. This scenario is not hypothetical. As the Court has already observed in proceedings in the defendant’s criminal trial, the defendant and his counsel will, if permitted, design their in-court statements instead to wage a public relations campaign. And in defendant’s New York state civil fraud trial, the defendant recently used his testimony to condemn the case as a “political witch hunt,” prompting the judge to admonish that “(t)his is not a political rally…” The Court should not grant the application in plain contravention of Rule 53 and further motivate the defendant and his counsel to make improper statements inside the courtroom to provoke a public reaction outside of it.
Thin-skinned Jack Smith asked Chutkan to ban Trump from calling him names on Truth Social. (She obliged.) Now he’s afraid Trump will condemn Smith’s prosecution as a “political witch hunt” during any televised trial. Defund Jack Smith.

The biggest problem with Smith’s claims is that this really is a political witch hunt. He knows it. Most Americans know it. The judge definitely knows it. But that’s the whole point. Smith and Chutkan DO want to oppress Trump to keep him from being President of the United States again and they’re willing to play dirty to get it done.
I would be very surprised if Chutkan doesn’t deny the motion to allow the public to watch this trial. Sunshine is the best disinfectant, but the people in charge of this trial know they’re the infection.

Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
