BlockBeats News, August 3: According to CCTV News, on August 2 local time, the Office of the Special Counsel in the United States confirmed that former Special Counsel Jack Smith, who was in charge of the Trump case, is under investigation for "alleged illegal political activities."

Smith was appointed as Special Counsel in November 2022, responsible for investigating and litigating the cases of Trump's alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results and mishandling of government confidential documents. Trump faced criminal charges in both cases. After the 2024 presidential election results were announced, Smith submitted materials to the United States Federal Court, dropping the charges against Trump. In the documents, he stated that the U.S. Constitution requires that criminal proceedings against a president-elect should be terminated prior to taking office. The Department of Justice made the decision to abandon the litigation process based on this provision. On January 10 of this year, Smith resigned from the U.S. Department of Justice.
