Jack Smith, the man Democrats appointed to create a criminal case against President Trump over the presidential documents he apparently took with him when he left office, is taking a ribbing online.
For his claim that, "We have one set of laws in the country, and they apply to everyone."
He made that statement this week in announcing that Trump had been indicted on charges of mishandling documents.
"We have one set of laws in this country, and they apply to everyone."

However, while a long list of charges has been filed against Trump, no charges ever were filed against Hillary Clinton, who is documented to have mishandled secret government information while secretary of state by putting it on an unsecure computer server, or Joe Biden, whose vast amounts of secret government documents have been uncovered in his garage, his home, his offices, and more.
Even former Vice President Mike Pence was given a pass after he reported secret documents in his possession.
Online, commenters, almost all anonymous, suggested Smith actually was lying.
"If that were true, Hillary would have been charged in 2016," said one.
"So we can expect Bidens charges soon as well then?" added another.
And another, "Everyone … except #TheBidenCrimeFamily."

A commentary at Twitchy explained, "Smith's Trump announcement contained a claim that's VERY hard to believe. … 'One set of laws, and they apply to everyone.' Seriously?'"
It continued, "Does Jack Smith moonlight as a comedian? Because that's pretty funny, not to mention insulting all at the same time."
IMPORTANT NOTE: “Election denier!” “Science denier!” “Climate-change denier!” “Conspiracy theorist!” And then there’s “hate speech,” “fake news,” “disinformation,” “misinformation,” even something called “MALinformation.” A bizarre new lexicon has been conjured up by America’s elites, the SOLE PURPOSE of which is to discredit and ridicule – and if at all possible, CENSOR ENTIRELY – speech that doesn’t support their increasingly dark and deranged agenda. Tucker Carlson is just the latest.
In the greatest imaginable irony, the nation once boasting the most robust culture of freedom of speech and the press – undergirded by the strongest constitutional protections for those rights – is now ground zero for a total war on free expression.
How could this possibly happen in the United States of America? It’s all explained as never before in the sensational new issue of WND’s critically acclaimed WHISTLEBLOWER magazine, titled “THE ELITES’ ALL-OUT WAR ON FREE SPEECH.” WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
