A top House Republican is grilling U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland about special counsel Jack Smiths prosecutorial team following the unprecedented indictment of a former president last week.
Garland appointed Smith to look into former President Donald Trumps possession of classified documents following an FBI raid in August to seize them. Trump was indicted on 37 counts a week ago amid allegations by the government that he mishandled some and was not entitled to others.
Now, Rep. Matt Gaetz, in a letter to Garland, is demanding information on the office of special counsel after it was revealed that one of the prosecutors on his team investigating Trump for his alleged mishandling of classified documents previously contributed to President Bidens 2020 campaign and faced misconduct allegations in 2009, Fox News reported.
Specifically, Gaetz wants the names of Smiths team.
