Wait 5 sec.

Jack Smith’s team repeatedly mishandled classified materials in his investigation into Trump’s mishandling of classified documents. Jack Smith indicted Trump on 37 federal counts in Miami in June 2023 for lawfully storing presidential records at his Mar-a-Lago estate which was protected by Secret Service agents.Trump was charged with 31 counts under the Espionage Act of willful retention of national defense information and 6 other process crimes stemming from his conversations with his lawyer.FBI agents staged the so-called classified documents and attacked President Trump with a viral photo of the materials. On Wednesday, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley released messages showing Jack Smith mishandling classified documents. “Messages obtained by U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) show personnel at the Biden U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), including personnel assigned to Jack Smith’s Special Counsel Office (SCO), potentially mishandled classified materials themselves amid Smith’s own investigation into President Trump’s alleged mishandling of classified documents,” Grassley’s office said.The messages, provided by DOJ in response to Grassley’s oversight requests, reveal:1) An individual was given access to classified materials without confirming they had the requisite “need to know.”2) There was at least one instance in which the potential movement of classified materials housed in a DOJ sensitive compartment information facility (SCIF) was unaccounted for.3) A “violation and incident” occurred when a SCIF accessible to SCO personnel was left open at least overnight and potentially longer.“Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. According to these messages, Biden DOJ personnel may have committed the very offense for which Jack Smith was prosecuting President Trump,” Grassley said. “These records expose yet another double standard of justice. While Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden escaped accountability for mishandling highly classified information, Jack Smith and the Biden DOJ set out to paint President Trump as a felon and ruin him politically. These and other records I’ve made public show the Biden Justice Department was unquestionably careless, not to mention highly hypocritical,” Grassley said.A.
