Breaking news from Capitol Hill: former Special Counsel Jack Smith will testify publicly before the House Judiciary Committee, reopening national focus on Donald Trump’s past legal exposure. This is not a new criminal case—Trump is protected from federal prosecution while serving as president—but it is politically explosive.
Newly released Georgia special grand jury transcripts show that top Republicans like Governor Brian Kemp and Senator Lindsey Graham privately admitted Trump lost the 2020 election and that fraud claims were baseless, even as they publicly supported Trump’s narrative. This exposes a deliberate misinformation campaign, not confusion or good-faith belief.
Jack Smith is expected to testify under oath that he had enough evidence to convict Trump beyond a reasonable doubt for attempting to overturn the 2020 election and for mishandling classified documents. The cases were dropped only because of presidential immunity, not because Trump was cleared.
Smith’s testimony will place detailed evidence permanently into the public record, creating a roadmap for future prosecution once Trump leaves office. As the midterms approach, this testimony threatens to dominate headlines, undermine Trump’s claims of exoneration, and force Republicans to defend actions they privately knew were false—deepening political and democratic fallout.
