Jack Smith under investigation for possible Hatch Act violation for his Trump investigations
Jack Smith is under investigation for his role under the Biden administration. Jack Smith, in the capacity of a government employee, is alleged to have maneuvered his investigation and subsequent lawsuits in a way intended to interfere with Donald Trump’s 2024 re-election campaign. As people said when Trump was under investigation and faced these lawsuits… No one is above the law.
From New York Post:
“I appreciate the Office of Special Counsel taking this seriously and launching an investigation into Jack Smith’s conduct. No one is above the law.
“Jack Smith’s actions were clearly driven to hurt President Trump’s election, and Smith should be held fully accountable,” said Senate Intelligence Committee chair Sen Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) in a statement to The Post.
OSC opened the investigation into Smith after Cotton wrote a letter earlier this week alleging Smith took blatantly political action to undermine President Trump in his 2024 bid.
Smith, who was appointed by President Biden’s Attorney General Merrick Garland, resigned from his post as Special Council for the Department of Justice in January, after Trump assumed power.
Smith’s actions as prosecutor have been widely criticized by Republicans who saw the prosecutions as an effort to weaponize the justice system against Trump and hobble his election chances in 2024.
In his letter to OSC, Cotton explains how Smith’s actions undermined Trump’s political efforts.
“Jack Smith’s legal actions were nothing more than a tool for the Biden and Harris campaigns. This isn’t just unethical, it is very likely illegal campaign activity from a public office,” Cotton said.
“Many of Smith’s legal actions seem to have no rationale except for an attempt to affect the 2024 election results — actions that would violate federal law.”
Cotton accuses Smith of blatant political actions to interfere with Trump’s 2024 presidential run, including speeding up his investigation to schedule trial dates that would interfere with important political moments, such as the Iowa caucuses.

Democrats suck. Even among themselves.
Imagine being told “you don’t know jack smith”.
Compliment or what?
I don’t even know jack shit. If he loses his job, jack could taked a mail order course on how to become a BlackSmith..
Kinda like “Your a huge, steaming pile of Phil Monkress”.
When Obama was dropped from the SPO we knew someone was going to have to take an ass beating.
The irony is rich here. Hopefully he will go to jail and the other wannabe king makers will learn a lesson about not using lawfare to manipulate the political process. Once the house cleaning at the FBI is complete those guys will be learning the same lesson for the umpteenth time.
Careful what you ask for as it will create perpetual motion.
I wonder who’s the next one to be thrown under the bus?
Name names jack, and we may show leniency. Key word MAY. No guarantees. Who got you tied up in this mess. No names? You get the full ride. Names that lead to conviction, you may only have to do half.
When we start to see these criminals get significant jail time and fines, I will believe that this is more than theater.
Don’t hold your breath.
Heh, anything to distract from the Epstein stuff, huh? I remember when Bonds confidently said it was on her desk and being released soon.
Two separate, unrelated cases. Try harder.
Well, ’tis The Swamp… they might be separate, unrelated cases but many of the same f*ckers keep showing up somehow:
Taking over for the commie cuttlefish?
Be advised, ain’t as great as Lars makes it out:
Hahaha, apparently you weren’t paying attention during the 2024 campaign. Rooting out the corruption of the 2020 election as well as the fake Russian Dossier and other Hatch Act violations was a very large dish on a table of a very large feast. There is a bowl there for Epstein too.
I’m gonna tell you the same thing I told Commie. Take a hint from your masters in the media who are pretending really hard that the whole thing doesn’t exist and praying to their dark heathen gods that it all goes away. Because if it doesn’t, and looks it isn’t going to, it will be like corn field at the harvest.
Um,,,, the Epstein stuff has been “up there” for a while ! Why is all of the sudden Trump’s fault?
What he gets for being a political, sanctimonious prick. Boo hoo. /sarc
