'Several lies': Jim Jordan's attempt to question Jack Smith hits major snag

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) sent a letter to former special counsel Jack Smith demanding that he give a "transcribed interview" to answer questions about his prosecution of President Donald Trump and alleged "surveillance" of members of Congress. But a keen legal analyst noted Jordan faces a major problem.
Posting the letter from Jordan, legal analyst and commentator Allison Gill posted to her "Mueller, She Wrote" Bluesky account that Jordan will have a difficult time getting Smith to testify about the "raid" on Mar-a-Lago Smith wasn't working for the Justice Department or even affiliated with the special counsel's office when the FBI conducted its search of Trump's country club to obtain the classified documents taken from the White House.
"Jim Jordan wants to question Jack Smith about his search of Mar-a-Lago, but Merrick Garland executed that search months before Jack Smith was even appointed. One of several lies in this letter demanding Jack Smith's testimony," said the "Mueller, She Wrote" comments.
Democrats have responded to Jordan's demands by celebrating at least one of them. Among Jordan's requests is for the full report from Smith to be released to the public. Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Jamie Raskin (D-MD) agreed he wanted the report as well.
