Wife of Trump special counsel donated to President JoeBiden and produced BarackObama film
Katy Chevigny is listed as a producer for Becoming on IMDB and donated $1,000 to then-candidate Joe Biden's campaign in 2020, according to OpenSecrets. Rankled by the appointment of Smith to oversee criminal inquiries involving former President Donald Trump, a slew of conservatives have seized upon the revelations about his wife as ammunition to diminish his credibility.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Clarence Thomas should recuse himself from Jan. 6 cases given his wife's activities. Defenders of Smith quickly pointed to Ginni Thomas when conservatives began recoiling over Chevigny's history. "You just can’t make this stuff up. Katy Chevigny, wife of Jack Smith—the special counsel appointed by DOJ to go after President Trump, donated to Joe Biden’s campaign and produced Michelle Obama’s documentary. America cannot stand with a corrupt, two-tiered justice system," Rep. Andrew Clyde tweeted.Katy Chevigny, wife of Jack Smith—the special counsel appointed by DOJ to go after President Trump, donated to Joe Biden’s campaign and produced Michelle Obama’s documentary.— Rep.
While serving as chief of the Justice Department Criminal Division’s Public Integrity Section, Smith emailed IRS official Lois Lerner about how the tax agency could help"in the criminal enforcement of campaign-finance laws against politically active nonprofits," testimony obtained by the House Judiciary Committee revealed.
In his capacity as special counsel, Smith is expected to weigh whether or not Trump will be criminally charged over those two Justice Department investigations. Unlike the Mueller inquiry into Russian collusion, Trump is no longer a sitting president as Smith's work unfolds and is therefore not given the same protections against federal indictments as a president enjoys.
