Jack Smith Faces Grilling in Heated House Hearing [WATCH]

Former special counsel Jack Smith testified on Capitol Hill on Thursday, delivering his first public testimony about his investigations into President Donald Trump.

Smith defended his decision to pursue the probes into Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election and his alleged mishandling of classified documents.

“No one should be above the law in our country, and the law required that [Trump] be held to account. So that is what I did,” Smith said in his opening remarks.

Jack Smith falsely claims there was proof beyond a reasonable doubt to charge President Trump.

His case COLLAPSED.

It was all political.
