Treason may not be new, but what is definitely new is the number of people that would take it seriously. I think the hearings helped make that happen and got us to this point. The DOJ wanted the mid-terms to happen first, and on Nov 18, 2022 Jack Smith was appointed Special Counsel. He was in the middle of something he just wrapped-up and just returned 6 days ago from Europe. From war crimes and now onto these cases makes Counsel Smith special indeed.
This is a monumental task; it's got to be done correctly. Even if we are feeling like the "Patience My Ass" poster, let's try to have some.

"Trump Special Counsel Bolsters Team With Anti-Graft Specialists"
-New hires prosecuted senators, governors, others in the past
-Special Counsel Jack Smith is beefing up his prosecution team
Today I have been trying to get my head around the pros and cons of releasing the "Special" Grand Jury Report in Georgia, one outcome seems to be a "regular " grand jury, but Fani Willis could have prosecuted without the "Special" to start with, and could pull the trigger without another one, and maybe releasing the Report would be "political cover," but maybe it would be bad for the trial case....my head is spinning. Same around and around with Garland. He didn't need Smith. Is Smith mere "political cover?" Did release of the Jan. 6 Cmte. Report complicate a trial case? It seems to me that there is no reward, in the end, for all the double and triple CYA. Exactly the same howls of outrage are going to come from the usual sources as if any of these prosecutors had just let 'er rip two years ago. Seems to me.
You are not the only one, I am still trying to understand the fiasco that is active within these power brokers that offer what I think is a solution; then nothing.
Normally I'd be thinking there is more behind the scenes info we do not know, making it difficult for us to judge the conflict of interest or the politics involved. However, Trump did so much of his "crime-ing" in public view and then bragged about it that you may be right. Time will tell.
I hope Jack works fast and efficiently. He said: " “I intend to conduct the assigned investigations, and any prosecutions that may result from them, independently and in the best traditions of the Department of Justice. The pace of the investigations will not pause or flag under my watch. I will exercise independent judgement and will move the investigations forward expeditiously and thoroughly to whatever outcome the facts and the law dictate.”

That sounds good to me even if it is overdue!
