I just wrote a lengthy thread explaining why Judge Aileen Cannon and today’s Republican Party want to pretend that U.S. v. Nixon doesn’t settle the question of the legality of Jack Smith’s appointment as special prosecutor in the federal investigations of Trump’s criminal wrongdoing. This question may yet reach the current U.S. Supreme Court. The Court has disregarded its own precedents so often, it will be interesting to see whether and how it holds that lower courts are to be bound by them. 1/
