Rep. Mike Kelly and Chairman Jim Jordan Release Statements on Jack Smith

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA) and Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) released statements on Jack Smith and the politicization of the Biden-Harris Justice Department.

"Surveilling private communications of Members of Congress for political purposes is a clear abuse of power. This further proves what we've known all along: the Biden Justice Department was weaponized against its political opponents," said Rep. Mike Kelly.

"Jack Smith tampered with evidence, surveilled sitting Members of Congress, and waged unprecedented lawfare against President Trump. The American people are ready for the truth about the weaponized Biden-Harris Administration," said Chairman Jordan.
