Jack Smith Got $140K in Free Legal Help From Biden’s Campaign Law Firm

 Jack Smith, a special counsel pursuing criminal cases against Donald Trump, received $140,000 in free legal assistance from a law firm associated with the Biden campaign.

• Jack Smith reported receiving pro bono legal services worth $140,000 from Covington & Burling, a well-known Washington law firm.

• The information came to light through a disclosure obtained by POLITICO, which Smith submitted upon his departure from the Justice Department.

• Covington & Burling declines to comment, and the lawyers involved did not respond to inquiries.

• One of the firm's lawyers, Lanny Breuer, previously served as Assistant Attorney General under Obama and was involved in the Fast and Furious scandal.

• Covington & Burling acted as legal counsel for the Biden campaign and helped vet Kamala Harris's vice-presidential picks.

• This connection raises questions about the independence of Smith’s investigation, suggesting it may be influenced by the Biden administration and associates from the Obama era.

• The article poses a question about whether there is a cover-up involved for Smith or for others related to the investigation.

The revelation of Jack Smith receiving substantial legal aid from a firm linked to the Biden campaign calls into question the impartiality of his actions as special counsel.
