Jim Jordan

The left controlled big media, the left controlled big tech, the left controlled academia, Hollywood, certainly the Democrat Party, and I think all too much the federal bureaucracy.

But the left doesn't control we the people.

And in spite of the left and the weaponization efforts of Jim Comey, Alvin Bragg, Bonnie Willis, and Jack Smith, we the people saw through it all.

And we elected President Trump twice.

Before turning to the ranking member for his opening statement, I would just ask unanimous consent to enter into the record.

The gentleman yields back without objection.

All of their opening statements will be included in the record.

We will now introduce today's witness.

Mr. Jack Smith was appointed as special counsel on November 18, 2022.

He served until January 7, 2025.

We welcome our witness today.

We'll begin by swearing you in.

Would you please rise and raise your right hand?

Do you swear or affirm under penalty of perjury that the testimony you're about to give is true and correct?

To the best of your knowledge, information, and belief, so help you God.

I do.

Let the record reflect that the witness has answered in the affirmative.

Thank you.

You can be seated.

Please know that your written testimony will be entered into the record in its entirety.
