Jordan accuses Smith of lying to Congress in criminal referral to DOJ

House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan has recommended criminal charges against former special counsel Jack Smith through a referral to the DOJ. The referral accuses Smith of making false statements to Congress during his deposition. While Jordan seeks a prosecution of the man who led criminal cases against President Trump, it remains unclear if the DOJ will pursue these allegations. Smith has consistently defended his work amidst these accusations of lying in his testimony.
