Jordan sidesteps Jack Smith amid demands to interview 'politically motivated' DOJ figures [View all]

(The Hill) House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) demanded interviews from a series of Justice Department (DOJ) officials he accused of weaponizing the department, pushing to speak with several figures tied to President Trump’s criminal cases but failing to include special counsel Jack Smith.

The request from Jordan demands an interview with former special counsel David Weiss, who has already sat with the committee to discuss his work investigating Hunter Biden. This would be his first appearance, however, since producing a short report recapping the probe into the former president’s son.

The Ohio Republican also requested interviews with top prosecutors on Smith’s team, including J.P. Cooney and Thomas Windom.
