Special counsel Jack Smith demands public release of his closed-door testimony on Trump’s Jan. 6 and classified documents cases, citing transparency and accountability.
Special counsel Jack Smith is pushing for the public release of his closed-door deposition, arguing Americans deserve direct access to the facts behind his investigations into former President Trump’s role in the January 6 Capitol riot and mishandling of classified documents.
Smith, who concluded his probe after Trump’s 2024 reelection and dropped his appeal, maintains he had sufficient evidence to convict Trump beyond a reasonable doubt, though prosecution was barred while Trump was president.
His legal team and lawmakers like Rep. Dan Goldman say transparency is critical to prevent misrepresentation and uphold accountability, urging House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan to release the full video and transcript.
The request comes amid Republican scrutiny, including calls for investigations into Smith’s conduct and questions about a surveillance operation involving metadata from Republican lawmakers.
