Attorney General Ken Paxton Demands DOJ Records on Trump Probe, Alleges Politicization of Justice System

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the Department of Justice for records related to Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into former President Donald Trump. Paxton has raised concerns about possible partisan bias in the investigation. In the request, he pointed to past Special Counsels, including Robert Mueller, stating, “Past Special Counsels, including—notoriously—Robert Mueller, destroyed records at the end of their investigations to avoid accountability. It is not clear why nobody was prosecuted for doing so.” He added, “This request is part of my Office’s efforts to ensure that Americans are not cheated out of accountability or information again,” as stated by the

Paxton’s request expresses concern about the politicization of the justice system, particularly in politically sensitive cases. “This pattern of weaponizing the justice system for partisan retribution must end,” Paxton said, according to the

The situation presents a challenge for the Department of Justice, which must balance ongoing investigations with the need for transparency and due process. This case is part of a broader pattern where legal matters often intersect with political tensions, raising concerns about trust in the justice system. As the investigation led by Jack Smith continues, the public and officials are awaiting clarity on how the matter will unfold and whether any new information will emerge, as reported by the
