Attorney General Jackley Urges Dismissal of Political Cases Against President Trump

PIERRE, S.D. – South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley and 22 other Attorneys General are requesting Special Counsel Jack Smith, New York Attorney General Letitia James, and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis end their political prosecutions of President Donald Trump.

“With the election over and President Trump returning to the White House, it is time to end political prosecutions,” said Attorney General Jackley. “The President must be able to do his job without the constant threat of prosecution.”

Special Counsel Smith has announced that he will drop his case. The States also ask that James and Willis end their prosecutions of President Trump.

Other Attorneys General on the letter to the three prosecutors are Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, and West Virginia.

After impossibly losing even more elections, Democrats peek out from under a rock and take shot at Governor Noem

@SoDakCampaigns

After impossibly losing even more elections including seats they had held in Democrat Majority districts, South Dakota Democrats mustered up the feigned moral authority to take a shot at Governor Kristi Noem as she is nominated to be a cabinet secretary in the Trump administration.

…. And now Democrats will go back underground, hoping not to be scared of their shadow on groundhogs day.

Updates: Senate decision could come in next couple of hours, 2026 Candidate list has begun

@SoDakCampaigns

Couple of quick updates:

  • My contacts in the beltway tell me that the Senate Majority Leader decision could come in the next hour, hour and a half, so keep your fingers crossed and say your prayers that US Senator John Thune will be successful in his election!  Governor Noem in the Cabinet, and Senator Thune Leading the Senate – South Dakota is taking over DC!
  • I have started the 2026 candidate list in the menu above, so if you hear of anyone out doing some congressional exploring, or letting a trial balloon loose to run for State Auditor, give me a shout!  And pay particular attention, because there are several offices where no one is running for anything yet. Lots of opportunities afoot for up and coming politicians.
