Special Counsel Jack Smith, appointed by the Biden Justice Department, is under scrutiny as he faces a congressional ethics complaint. The complaint, spearheaded by Representative Elise Stefanik (R-NY), accuses Smith of attempting to influence the 2024 presidential election by actively prosecuting former President Donald Trump.

She argued that the Justice Department’s guidelines strictly prohibit such actions by Smith, pointing out that his continued legal actions during a court-ordered stay are both reckless and damaging to the reputation of the Department of Justice (DOJ).
