Jack Smith Faces Hatch Act Inquiry plus Trump’s Policies Slash Illegal Crossings by 87%

from The Ben Ferguson Podcast · host iHeartPodcasts

📰 1. Investigation into Former Special Counsel Jack Smith The U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC) has reportedly opened an investigation into Jack Smith, the former special counsel who led criminal investigations into Donald Trump. The investigation centers on whether Smith violated the Hatch Act, which prohibits federal employees from engaging in political activities. Allegations include: Rushing legal proceedings to influence the 2024 election. Filing briefs close to the election date. Using DOJ resources in a way that allegedly favored Kamala Harris and harmed Trump. The investigation is not criminal, but could result in fines or sanctions. The document suggests this could be the start of broader scrutiny into Smith’s actions and those of his team. 🚨 2. Border Security and Migrant Arrests in Texas The second half of the document shifts focus to border security, highlighting: A significant drop in migrant apprehensions under the Trump administration compared to the Biden administration. Specific arrests of migrants, including Chinese nationals and individuals from Uzbekistan, with concerns about terrorism. Increased effectiveness of Texas DPS, Border Patrol, and K-9 units in tracking and apprehending illegal migrants. Claims of record-low apprehension numbers in June and July 2025, attributed to stricter enforcement and deterrence. Statements from Christy Noem emphasizing the success of Trump’s border policies.
