The assumption that Special Counsel Jack Smith is independent of AG Garland and President Biden is rooted in a fundamental misunderstanding of the Special Counsel position.
This role was created after Watergate to ensure that someone with investigative powers could go after the sitting administration without the Attorney General - potentially a wingman like Holder to Obama - interfering. The Special Counsel, therefore, answers to the Deputy Attorney General, who, while a POTUS appointee, would probably not be a close friend of the president, and the findings by the SC are filed with Congress to assure accountability and possible Congressional action.
Jack Smith's role is aimed outside the administration, not against the administration like a typical DOJ SC. Therefore, Biden and Garland have no interest in interfering in this investigation, and nothing stops Garland from giving Smith ideas how to go after Trump. There is, therefore, ZERO independence here!
Garland raided Trump three months before Smith was appointed, and according to a letter by the National Archivist to Trump's attorney, Biden deputized her to revoke Trump's Presidential Records Act privileges, and she did. This directly enabled the raid on Trump which used PRA as a primary reason in the raid application.
In summary, two roadblocks against POTUS/AG interference in a Special Counsel investigation are moot here, and Garland and Biden both took action that led to the Trump Raid and by extension his prosecution, so it is baseless to claim that there is some sort of an above-board independent process here. Perhaps when defending democracy there is no need for independence…

Stop embarrassing yourself by wasting your energy defending this election-loser. Trump will not reward your loyalty. The only thing Trump has successfully done (he couldn't even build his promised wall) was reignite conspiracism and antisemitism in his formerly pro-israel party.

Let's hope Jack Smith succeeds, allowing a saner GOP to rise from the ashes.
