Jack Smith testifies before Senate Judiciary Committee
Original: An embarrassing moment for the GOP, a confident witness and other takeaways from Jack Smith’s hearing
Special counsel Jack Smith, who brought two federal indictments against Donald Trump in 2023, testified again before Congress on Tuesday, this time before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Coverage highlights a confident performance from Smith and an awkward moment for Republican questioners, with commentators framing the hearing as a test of the investigations into the now-president.
Why now: Smith's public testimony about his prosecutions of Trump is rare and politically charged, drawing attention to the clash between the special counsel and GOP lawmakers.
