Jack Smith Leaves Taxpayers With A $50 Million Tab
After two years, Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into President Donald Trump has concluded, leaving taxpayers scratching their heads.
And left picking up the tab, to the tune of over $50 million.
DOJ disclosures reveal Smith’s office burned through millions across three reporting periods.
Each report averaged about $12 million each.
And after two years of accusations, what’s to show for it?
Nothing. Those cases came to nothing.
Seems like a wise way to burn tens of millions of dollars, eh?
DOGE can’t show up too soon.

Fox News reports:
Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigations into Donald Trump over the last two years – which he opted to dismiss this week – have likely cost U.S. taxpayers more than $50 million, according to Department of Justice expenditure reports.
Financial disclosures from the Special Counsel’s Office show that from mid-November 2022, when Smith was appointed special counsel, until March 31, 2023, his office incurred costs of about $9.25 million. A second disclosure laying out the office’s expenditures for the following six months showed the office’s spending increased to roughly $14.66 million. Meanwhile, a third expenditure report, the latest available, showed that from Oct. 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024, Smith’s office spent roughly $11.84 million.
These costs include both direct and indirect expenses, the latter of which is provided through various Department of Justice agencies.
Expenditure figures for the months between April 1, 2024, and Sept. 30, 2024, have yet to be released, but the average of the three reported periods is roughly $12 million.
When that estimate is added to the numbers from the three reporting periods that have been publicly reported, the amount spent by Smith’s office since he was appointed rounds to about $47.5 million.
However, this estimate does not include any expenditures from Sept. 30 to date, so the total money spent is likely more than $50 million, Newsweek reported earlier this month.
Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Smith in November 2022 to oversee the federal investigation into Trump’s alleged interference in the 2020 election, and his improper handling of sensitive classified documents.
After an exhaustive, nearly two-year investigation, and other cases that saw Trump surrendering to authorities for a mugshot, Smith filed motions on Monday to dismiss the cases against the former president, citing procedural standards that preclude the prosecution of a sitting president.
All this waste shows proves we need DOGE.
$50 million.
And Jack Smith has nothing to show for it.
D.O.G.E. Can’t come soon enough.

It’s not like those in North Carolina could use the $50 million to repair the damage of Hurricane Helene.

What do you think?
Should ol’ Smith face consequences or was he just doing his job?
‘No hard feelings, right?’
Do you think Jack Smith and other prosectors who waged Lawfare against President Trump should face consequences?
