Elise Ste­fanik Accus­es Spe­cial Coun­sel Jack Smith Of Elec­tion Inter­fer­ence In Ethics Com­plaint

A top House Repub­li­can is accus­ing spe­cial coun­sel Jack Smith of elec­tion inter­fer­ence as the pros­e­cu­tor leads two crim­i­nal cas­es against for­mer Pres­i­dent Don­ald Trump.
House Repub­li­can Con­fer­ence Chair­woman Elise Ste­fanik (R‑NY) announced on Tues­day that she had filed an ethics com­plaint against Smith with the Office of Pro­fes­sion­al Respon­si­bil­i­ty at the Depart­ment of Jus­tice (DOJ).
In her let­ter, which Ste­fanik post­ed to X, the con­gress­woman request­ed that Office of Pro­fes­sion­al Respon­si­bil­i­ty coun­sel Jef­frey Rags­dale open an inves­ti­ga­tion into Smith’s “appar­ent vio­la­tions” of DOJ stan­dards and eth­i­cal duties.
Ste­fanik insist­ed that Smith should face dis­ci­pline for alleged­ly attempt­ing to expe­dite the tri­al in the spe­cial counsel’s elec­tion inter­fer­ence case against Trump in Wash­ing­ton, D.C.
