Trump Signs New Memo Going After Jack Smith-Tied Legal Group

On Tuesday President Donald Trump signed an order revoking security clearances for employees of Covington & Burling LLP, a law firm that provided legal assistance to Special Counsel Jack Smith’s office. The move comes as part of Trump’s effort to combat what he calls the “weaponization of government” by legal and political opponents.

At a press conference announcing the decision, Trump was in characteristic form, labeling Smith “deranged” and calling the executive action the “Deranged Jack Smith Signing.” He then tossed a Sharpie to a reporter, joking, “Why don’t you send it to Jack Smith?”

The order suspends and places under review the security clearances of attorneys and employees from Covington & Burling who worked with Smith’s team. “We’re going to continue holding the people who were responsible for the weaponization of government accountable,” a senior official stated during the press event.

Trump signaled that this move is just the beginning, suggesting that other firms could soon face similar actions. “You’ll be doing this with other firms as time goes by, right?” Trump asked an official during the presser.

The president also took aim at pro bono legal services, implying that firms like Covington & Burling were leveraging free legal aid to hinder government operations. “The weaponization of our system by law firms, even pro bono work they’re doing just in order to clog up government, stop government… hopefully, that’ll never happen again,” he said.
