Emails Reveal New Names Targeted by Jack Smith During Trump Investigation
You can add Rep. Brian Babin (R-TX), Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) and former Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY) to list of over 400 Republicans targeted by Smith.
Fox News Digital revealed other Republicans former special counsel Jack Smith targeted during his investigation into President Donald Trump.
We already know that Smith tracked and targeted over 400 Republicans, including senators.
The new emails exposed a spiderweb containing members of the House and Senate who had contact with the main people in Smith’s investigation, such as Trump, Mark Meadows, and Rudy Giuliani:
New names within the emails obtained by Fox News Digital include Rep. Brian Babin (R-Texas), Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) and former Rep. Lee Zeldin, who now leads the Environmental Protection Agency.
“I’d like to seek [the Public Integrity Section’s] concurrence to get phone tolls for several MOCs who had contact with pertinent parties in our investigation,” wrote DOJ lawyer Timothy Duree. “I’ll keep the timeframe tight—probably October 1, 2020, to January 31, 2021.”
Duree produced 16 names and said he wanted to discuss whether to “subpoena these all at once.” The list included Reps. Babin and Biggs and now former Reps. Mo Brooks, Matt Gaetz, Paul Gosar, Louie Gohmert, Zeldin and Jody Hice. The list also included Gohmert’s chief of staff Connie Hair, and seven senators whose names were previously revealed through public disclosures, such as Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn.
The emails did not say if Smith subpoenaed communications data for the Babbin, Biggs, and Zeldin.
Another email showed Raymond Hulser, a prosecutor on Smith’s team, told Duree to use the January 6 Committee’s report to find out which members “interacted with Trump and Giuliani” on the day of the riot:
Hulser later said Smith wanted to “narrow” down the list of 16, leading Duree to provide a bolded list of names “we should get in the first round.”
No. 1 on the list, for instance, read “Brian Babin (texts with Meadows; calls with Chip Roy, Perry, Ratcliffe, and Meadows).” Other names noted followed a similar structure. Roy and Perry were known targets and Smith’s probe and previously revealed that they had their records subpoenaed by the special counsel’s team.
It’s ridiculous that Smith’s team relied on the report, since he knew the committee’s star witness, Cassidy Hutchinson, had relied on hearsay.
“If I were a defense attorney and Ms. Hutchinson were a witness, the first thing I would do was seek to preclude some of her testimony because it was hearsay, and I don’t have the full range of her testimony in front of me right now, but I do remember that that was a decent part of it,” Smith admitted to Congress in December.
Smith even described Hutchinson as a “second or even thirdhand witness” since other witnesses provided different accounts of the situation.
“We interviewed, I think, the people she talked to, and we also interviewed, if my recollection is correct, officers who were there, including the officer who was in the car,” Smith said. “And that officer, if my recollection is correct, and I want to make sure I’m right about this, said that President Trump was very angry and wanted to go to the Capitol, but the version of events that he explained was not the same as what Cassidy Hutchinson said she heard from somebody secondhand.”
So ridiculous.

Anyone who worked for Smith still in government? If so kick them out.
What the hell is taking us so long?
If Jack Smith had so much as booked a room at the Holiday Inn in Washington DC on January 5th, he would’ve been in a dungeon long before now.
Motherfu*ker should be swinging from a rope.
Who didn’t he spy on?
Democrats, criminals, illegal aliens, foreign gangs, Chinese spies and Somali fraud rings.
I believe Garland literally wanted to create a one party police state. He either was or went insane when he was not selected to SCOTUS and blamed Trump every second of the day. Yet Trump had absolutely nothing to do with Garland’s failed nomination. Nothing. Garland is a vicious, weak-minded vengeful lunatic, much like Biden, Rice, Hillary and Obama.

I saw this quote somewhere recently, perhaps here. In the context of your comment, it also is an indictment of the American voter.
I’ve seen at least a few people speculate that was the plan. Get some Democrat hack in black or hacks on jury somewhere to rule that the J6 riot was an ‘insurrection’ and then use that to bootstrap Democrat state officials and others to use the 14th Amendment Insurrection clause to remove Republicans from ballots wholesale.
Nothing’s going to happen. There are 93 US attorneys and only 31 confirmed.
Then there’s the more than three dozen open Federal Judge positions… in Red States alone, some of which have been vacant since before Trump’s inauguration.
The entire jack Smith fiasco looks like something a dictator or KING would have his lucky do. No saying the demented WH occupant did it but someone in his circle did.
You could look for years for someone who is lower and dirtier and you would come up empty handed.
Whatever. That Smith and the rest aren’t in prison at this time says it all. Nothing will happen to Smith or anyone else. Nobody will be held responsible for their illegal acts and actions. Nobody. democrats are never brought to account. So in the end, this is just yet another “meh, whatever.” moment.
When Blondie Bondi starts seriously prosecuting these people for their criminal acts and actions then tell me about it. Otherwise, don’t bother.
Let it rip. Long overdue.
we have little time left with this (possible) last maga admin
black matriarchy continues to win in local elections and judgeships etc
Nothing will happen. The rino wing was in on Smith’s attempt to go after conservatives. Disbar him? It will never happen. We have just about lost our constitutional republic. All you need to realize this is look at Thune obstructing the SAVE act.
