Elise Stefanik wants Jack Smith held Accountable

Injustice Exposed: Ethics Complaint Calls for Discipline Against Special Counsel in Trump Cases

The complaint was filed by Elise Stefanik, a Republican Congresswoman from New York and the chair of the House GOP conference. Stefanik accused Smith of serious ethics violations and called for disciplinary action to be taken against him.

In her official complaint to the DOJ’s Office of Professional Responsibility, Stefanik claimed that Smith has engaged in egregious misconduct by pursuing criminal charges against Trump.
