Former Special Counsel Jack Smith is facing renewed scrutiny after newly released DOJ records, disclosed by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley and Sen. Ron Johnson, claimed his team reviewed text messages involving 44 members of Congress during the Trump investigation, allegedly bypassing a required filter review process. The records reportedly include messages exchanged with Trump White House officials between October 2020 and January 2021. The disclosures have sparked sharp political criticism, with Grassley and Johnson accusing Smith's team of violating investigative protocols and constitutional safeguards, while also raising questions about Smith's previous congressional testimony regarding text messages. Smith has previously maintained that his investigations complied with Justice Department policies. #JackSmith #DonaldTrump #TrumpProbe #DOJ #Congress #ChuckGrassley #RonJohnson #USPolitics #BreakingNews #Senate #CapitolHill #WhiteHouse #Election2020 #Politics #Ne
