In summary it says special prosecutor smith should have been approved by congress, plus given a budget by congress because he is an inferior official.
And the special prosecutor does not seemingly hold a principal official position that would avoid congressional approval.
My take: the court is being incredibly strict on following the formality of the law in this case. And is not skipping the process in the case of a highly sensitive matter like classified documents. This is rule for the rich and famous. And I don’t think this kind of strictness would have been applied on random joes.
