“After his recent congressional testimony, former Special Counsel Jack Smith appeared at a ‘Power to the People Fest’ sporting a ‘No Kings’ T-shirt. Aside from a midlife crisis, the most likely explanation is that Smith wanted to send a message, reaffirming his bona fides as an anti-Trump warrior. It was a Comey moment, but without the seashells. The Power to the People Fest featured many whom Smith has long cultivated in the ‘Democracy-is-Ending’ crowd. The organizers billed the event as ‘working to restore and strengthen democracy’ and featured some of Trump’s loudest critics. The top billing went to Bruce Springsteen, who has lately turned his concerts into anti-Trump rave sessions, including comparing Trump officials to ‘Gestapo’ and calling the administration ‘treasonous’. He continued those attacks at the concert with Smith, denouncing Trump as ‘lawless’ and his administration as murderers.” (10/12/26)
