Police were dispatched toward Smith’s residence but were called off when they learned it was a false alarm and that everyone inside the home was safe.
Special counsel Jack Smith, who is overseeing the prosecution of former President Donald Trump in two federal cases, was the target of an attempted swatting at his Maryland residence on Christmas Day.
According to two law enforcement sources, someone called 911 and said that Smith had shot his wife at the address where Smith lives.
Montgomery County Police dispatched units toward the home but were called off when the Deputy U.S. Marshals protecting Smith and his family told police that it was a false alarm and that everyone inside the home was safe.
No arrests have been made in connection with the incident.
So I don’t want to bother finding a place to put this where anyone who would do this would see it. I’ll just rant here.
Hey jackass. Let’s consider the events of christmas day. Smith family sits safely at home. There is no mention of Jack even being informed.
Meanwhile, a mother is having an over-text conversation with her cop husband about how they are missing each other on Christmas Day. Then the cop texts “got to run. another guy with a gun.”
Now the cop’s wife is at home holding her children with the routine and traumatic thought of “will my children see their dad again?”.
Summing up. Smith family fine. Cop family scared. You know a certain percentage of cops’ wives are very sympathetic individuals.
Its not the 40% being beaten by their husbands is it?

Oh, is that what comes up when you google “percent of cop’s wife’s”? Oops, I guess shouldn’t have said that. ;)
And I know I getting downvoted for being sympathetic to a family. But the person who sent the swat team presumably would care about them.
Are they cops because they’re violent or are they violent because they’re cops?
No sympathy for cop families, they choose to be the thug army of our wealthy elite masters.
You folks have no theory of mind. All I’m saying is that the bootlicker with the great idea of trying ruin the Smiths’ Christmas ended up being at best friendly fire in a completely foreseeable way. The swatter is just having cops fight cops.
But stellar point about choosing your own family. Go home to your mom; tell her you’re brilliant.
My mom is dead so fuck you on that point for reminding me.
40% of REPORTED police spouses have claimed abuse. I am sure there a lot more too afraid to report it. Every one of them could leave
I have cut off every single magahead in my family tree from all contact after their support of jan6. It isn’t that hard.
I brought up your mother because they were a person in your life you did not choose. Pick a different mother. You can’t? That’s my point. I hope you had a great one. If you love you mom, I am sorry you lost her. But you had a lot of victim blaming in your small comment.
I don’t know the relevance. You know I made up that cop story? Also, there is a strange assumption people make the the main character of a story is supposed to be a good guy. He not. I don’t care about him. My point was the swatter is dumbass whose plan had no hope of even bothering their target but could cause issues for their blue team.
Have you talked to many domestic violence survivors? Leaving is not simple. The kids are sympathetic too. I won’t let my hate of MAGA blur that. Targeting families is crime even in war. I won’t do it.
One, my cousin. It only worked because we had a special connection even within the family as being the only two males our age.
I appealed to his sense of nervousness for the future, I identified with his economic and social fears (he was on his way to inceldom at a rapid pace), I shared my own fears that aligned with him: Never owning a house, not being able to afford a family, not even really being able to afford to date or socialize. Being one accident away from poverty.
I reminded him of the minorities he was involved with on a daily basis and asked him of any of them came even close to fitting the stereotypes he kept saying about them.
After he began to come to terms with this, I started bringing up the direct policy choices that have been responsible for our current economic stagnation were almost universally Republican driven policy changes, and the fact that SCOTUS almost exclusively votes in favor of corporate interest in the last 40 years.
I also agreed with him that the dems were ALMOST as bad, but confronted him with statements made by AOC, Franken and Bernie that actively spoke out in favor of the worker and the student, something I CHALLENGED him to find a modern parallel to in the republican party. He could find zero examples.
But as he was searching, he did start to see that what republicans WERE saying about workers rights was that they needed to be restricted. I think that’s when the class betrayal the GOP heaped on him sunk in.
It took a while, wasn’t always forward momentum, and he hasn’t committed to voting blue yet, but he won’t vote cheetolini in any circumstance as he now realizes that the twice impeached one is a traitor to our democracy.
