House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, has issued a criminal referral to the Justice Department regarding former Special Counsel Jack Smith. This development was discussed by Fox News correspondent David Spunt in a report on ‘Special Report.’
The House Judiciary Committee has released six key transcripts, providing insights into Jack Smith’s probe into former President Donald Trump and other Republican officials. These documents include testimony from five prosecutors involved with Smith and a former DOJ watchdog agent.
Former Special Counsel Jack Smith was set to testify during a House Judiciary Committee hearing at the Rayburn House Office Building on Capitol Hill, scheduled for January 22, 2026.
Committee Republicans claim that the investigators involved in the Arctic Frost probe improperly subpoenaed the phone records of over a dozen GOP lawmakers. There were also allegations of gag orders that prevented these lawmakers from discovering that the Biden-Harris Justice Department had acquired their records.
This situation remains fluid, and more updates are expected.
