Part 9/13:
An intense, partisan controversy surrounds federal investigations under the Department of Justice. Rep. Jim Jordan has demanded that Jack Smith, the special counsel overseeing investigations into President Trump, testify about alleged misconduct, including the surveillance and tapping of Republican senators' and Trump's associates’ phones.
Senator Bill Haggerty, one of several GOP senators whose phones were reportedly tapped, confirmed being surveilled during the Trump administration and again under Biden. Haggerty expressed shock at the surveillance, suggesting it was politically motivated and an unprecedented breach of privacy.
