Jack Smith team secretly sought 2+ years of Kash Patel's phone records in Trump probe

Former special counsel Jack Smith secretly sought over two years' worth of phone records for now-FBI Director Kash Patel during his investigation into President Donald Trump, according to newly released documents. The request was made despite no evidence of wrongdoing by Patel found in the probe. Patel's involvement is seen as potentially sensitive given his current role at the FBI. The full extent of Smith's inquiry remains unclear.
