The Justice Department (DOJ) informed the House Judiciary Committee about an internal investigation into Special Counsel Jack Smith and his team due to misconduct allegations. This information was shared through a letter obtained by The Washington Examiner. The specific misconduct details are not clear at this time.
The DOJ's Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) mentioned that the inquiry into Smith’s office began in June 2023, but they had not taken any action against Smith, because ongoing investigations involving Trump needed to be prioritized. Both of Smith's cases against President Trump ended after Trump won the 2024 presidential election.
Chairman Jim Jordan expressed dissatisfaction with the briefing provided by OPR official Jeffrey Ragsdale. Ragsdale noted that he had opened the inquiry into possible misconduct by Smith’s office, but did not proceed further while Smith’s prosecutions of Trump were pending, which Jordan highlighted in his response. Ragsdale explained that any actions taken could interfere with Smith’s cases, both of which were concluded following Trump's election victory.
Jordan acknowledged the confirmation of the ongoing investigation; however, he voiced concern that the lack of prompt investigative steps could allow these attorneys to avoid internal accountability as they might leave the Department. According to Jordan, the inquiry was initiated after someone under Smith reported possible misconduct to Ragsdale's office.
