🚨 Former Special Counsel Jack Smith, in a closed-door House Judiciary Committee hearing: “The decision to bring charges against President Trump was mine, but the basis for those charges rests entirely with President Trump and his actions, as alleged in the indictments returned by grand juries in two different districts.” “Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power”

Former special counsel Jack Smith told a House committee Thursday that he stands by the decisions he made in that role, "including the decision to bring charges against President Trump." In a hearing focused on Smith's investigations into President Donald Trump's mishandling of classified documents and role in efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election, Smith said his investigation developed proof "beyond a reasonable doubt" that Trump had engaged in criminal activity. "If asked whether to prosecute a former president based on the same facts today, I would do so regardless of whether that president was a Democrat or Republican," Smith said. "No one should be above the law in this country," he added. The hearing is an opportunity for the career prosecutor to publicly offer his inside perspective on the investigations, which both led to unprecedented indictments. Both were scuttled once it was clear that Trump would return to the Oval Office; Department of Justice policy prevents prosecution of a sitting president. Republicans and the president have accused Smith of pursuing a politically motivated case against the president. Trump has denied wrongdoing while attacking Smith, calling him a "criminal" who ought to be investigated and "put in prison." Smith defended his investigations in an hourslong closed-door meeting with lawmakers in December, saying he said he had "proof beyond a reasonable doubt" of what his investigations laid out. He's denied accusations of bias.

Former special counsel Jack Smith told a House committee Thursday that he fears Americans now take the idea of “rule of law” for granted, and that its execution depends on "collective commitment." In a hearing focused on Smith’s investigations into President Donald Trump’s mishandling of classified documents and role in the Jan. 6 attack, Smith said as a public servant in international settings, he has “seen how the rule of law can erode,” adding that many Americans may now take it for granted in the U.S. “The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it. It requires dedicated service on behalf of others, especially when that service is difficult and comes with costs,” Smith said. The hearing is an opportunity for the career prosecutor to publicly offer his inside perspective on the investigations, which both led to unprecedented indictments.

Rep. Troy Nehls, R-Texas, said U.S. Capitol leadership – and not President Donald Trump – was to blame for the events of the Jan. 6 insurrection. The congressman directed his remarks to the Capitol police officers and other law enforcement member in attendance for Thursday’s hearing on former special counsel Jack Smith’s investigations into Trump’s mishandling of classified documents and role in the Jan. 6 attack. “I can tell you, gentlemen, that the fault does not lie with Donald Trump,” he said, adding it lied with officers’ leaders. The congressman’s remarks prompted a response from at least one of the officers who could be heard saying, “Go f**k yourself.” The verbal spat prompted Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, chair of the House Judiciary Committee, to let the congressman continue his remarks. “The point is, you were all unprepared to deal with that day,” Nehls said, shouting. “It was their fault, folks. It was their fault.” The hearing is an opportunity for the career prosecutor to publicly offer his inside perspective on the investigations, which both led to unprecedented indictments.

REPORT: Former Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigative team obtained and reviewed text messages exchanged between officials from the first Trump administration and 44 members of Congress. “This comes despite Smith testifying UNDER OATH last December that he DID NOT spy on lawmakers’ text message content.” According to records released by the Justice Department to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI), Smith's team accessed these communications as part of the probe into President Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. The messages involved 40 Republican lawmakers and four Democrats communicating with senior White House officials in the final weeks of Trump's first term.
