Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia has a plan to stop Joe Biden’s politically motivated Department of Defense and its lead special prosecutor, Jack Smith, who has been tasked with taking down former President Donald Trump.
To stop the weaponized DOJ, Greene has a constitutional method to stop Smith, which includes two parts:
• First, it’s necessary to move control of special counsel funding from the Department of Justice to Congress. The DOJ currently controls the slush fund to pay Smith.
• Second, Congress can defund Smith and effectively stop the political witch hunts against Trump.

“To fund a special counsel right now … the people that have control of that is the Department of Justice itself,” Greene said.
“You hear people yell, ‘Defund Jack Smith,’ and I’ve said it before myself. But we are unable to do it because the Department of Justice controls that slush fund.” (Trending: Unearthed Clip Shows Joe and Hunter Discussing Business)
“My legislation would give Congress the authority and the power to fund special counsels every single year, just like all of our other appropriation bills,” she continued.
“This is actually the constitutional way, because Congress is in charge of the checkbook, not the Department of Justice itself,” Greene said.
“I had talked about it with President Trump because I wanted him to understand that this is actually not political, to move it back to Congress. Because the Democrat-controlled Congress would have control of that just as much as a Republican-controlled Congress would have.”
“I will not vote to fund the government if Congress doesn’t do this: – Impeachment Inquiry vote on Joe Biden – Defund Biden’s weaponization of government – Eliminate all COVID vaccine and mandates – No funding for the war in Ukraine,” she wrote. (Trending: Biden Family Is Officially In Panic Mode)
