    “Jack Smith, Special Counsel” kind of sounds like a spy thriller. Just saying.

    Granted … they wouldn’t have to embellish to that extent to make interesting or gripping.

    But also, this is a power move. They want Nauta as a witness. Screwing over Nauta’s legal team… oh yeah. They just declared dominance.
