One one of the cassette tapes Rubin sent me way back when, he noted it was easier to deal with a large band of merry fools, than a single sad wise man.

Not that long ago, many here wondered if the highly classified documents that Trump stole had been shared with other countries. We can only speculate. But I think that it is a good thing that Jack Smith will be focusing upon that. He has a bit of international experience.
