BREAKING: Jack Smith calls Donald Trump's bluff and urges Congress and the Justice Department to let him testify publicly "in open hearings" to set the record straight.

In a new letter sent to the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, Smith asked for the public hearings so that he can dispel the "many mischaracterizations" that are now swirling around his investigations into Trump's mishandling of classified records and efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Those investigations led to criminal charges but were ultimately dismissed by a Trump-appointed judge.

Smith's attorneys told the Republican committee leaders that he will need DOJ assurances that he "will not be punished" for testifying since some of the details of his investigations are technically still sealed or protected under grand jury secrecy rules.

Donald Trump and Republicans have relentlessly attacked Jack Smith, but he has steadfastly defended his investigations.

I have had a lot of setbacks, yes. As of today, I collect disability, yes. But I will say that I have had a hell of a ride with both positive and negative experiences.

• Was kicked out of a college program and showed up there shortly after in a security uniform, making the program's president's mouth drop (a funny experience and a reaction to remember). I was hired on there after I was kicked out of class. I only lasted a few minutes before I was fired, lol.

Does it depend on the office they're running for? Any other factors?

I'm not that guy. Take your assanine bullshit elsewhere.

Is dating a guy who comes from wealth and is very successful. Is that attractive or intimidating?

Might sound like a silly question but i have known people who haven't really looked in a mirror at themselves for awhile

If you were given the option to die right now and everyone else lives or choose to live but the world ends in 50 years what you do?
