Texas Republican Chip Roy tears into Jack Smith: ‘Did you target my records?’

A Texas Republican congressman tore into Jack Smith after learning that his phone records were also seized during the ex-special counsel’s investigation.

“Did you target my records and subpoena my phone?” Rep. Chip Roy fumed at Smith, brandishing a posterboard of more than a dozen Republicans who had their phone metadata, or toll analysis, obtained via subpoenas.

“My understanding is your records were subpoenaed by prosecutors before I became special counsel,” Smith responded.

“I learned for the first time a few weeks ago that my phone records were indeed targeted,” Roy revealed. “We called AT&T, and we’ve learned they were given to the Department of Justice, as this email indicates, because I’ve been in communication with [Rep.] Scott Perry [R-Pa.].”

“This happened four years ago in May of 2022, and I couldn’t object because I didn’t know — I didn’t know until about three weeks ago,” the House Republican fumed.

“You were clearly targeting American citizens for merely being conservative or supporting the president.”
