Jack Smith's Team Obtains Texts from 44 Congress Members

Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigative team has secretly obtained and reviewed text messages from 44 members of Congress, according to U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa, as reported on his official website at U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa. This development has sparked controversy and allegations of spying on lawmakers, with Senator Grassley accusing Jack Smith of overstepping his bounds, as seen in the article Grassley Accuses Jack Smith of Spying on Lawmakers. The texts were obtained as part of the Trump probe, and the news has sent shockwaves through Congress, with some lawmakers calling for greater transparency and oversight, similar to the demands for transparency in the Epstein files, as discussed in Blanche Faces Questions on Epstein Files Transparency, and the recent revelation that Congress Texts Obtained in Trump Probe has raised more questions about the scope of the investigation.

How We Report Government Secrets

This article is produced by NewsAnarchist's AI reporting system, not a human staff reporter. It's built from the primary source cited above (a declassified document, a FOIA release, an inspector general or congressional report, or a named whistleblower disclosure reported by outlets we cite) and reports what that source states, attributed to it — it reports what the document or disclosure states and does not speculate about what remains classified beyond that.
