Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) has filed an ethics complaint against special counsel Jack Smith for trying to “unlawfully interfere with the 2024 Presidential Election.”

Stefanik is the House GOP conference chairwoman and a Trump ally. She filed the complaint with the Justice Department’s Office of Professional Responsibility. She alleges arguing Smith is trying to “rush” Trump’s federal election subversion case, according to Fox News.

The Supreme Court, which has a 6-3 conservative majority, heard arguments in the immunity case last week. A final decision is expected in June.
