Watch: Jack Smith walks in stony silence as reporter tries to pry info on Trump probes
Former President Donald Trump's campaign issued a statement attacking special counsel Jack Smith and his wife just hours before being arraigned in Washington, D.C.
In a multi-page statement, Trump claimed the charges against him for trying to overturn the 2020 presidential election were "un-American and wrong."
The statement went on to smear Smith for "a dirty, politically-motivated investigation." It offered news articles intended to undermine the special prosecutor.
One section of the statement was titled, "Jack Smith's Wife, Katy Chevigny, Is A Biden Donor. She Produced A Documentary About Michelle Obama, And She Worked On An Anti-Citizens United Film Titled, 'Dark Money.'"
The statement included three paragraphs disparaging Chevigny for her work on documentaries.
"Jack Smith’s wife is a Biden donor and produced [a] fawning Michelle Obama documentary," Trump campaign spokesperson Liz Harrington said, underscoring the attack.
