Jack Smith, the former special counsel who led multiple high-profile criminal investigations into Donald Trump, has asked congressional leaders to allow him to openly testify as the GOP probes his past work.
In a letter to the leaders of the House and Senate judiciary committees, lawyers for Smith said they were seeking the public testimony route “given the many mischaracterizations of Mr. Smith’s investigation into President Trump’s alleged mishandling of classified documents and role in attempting to overturn the results of the 2020 election.”
