Jack Smith, the special counsel leading two investigations—alleged election interference and classified document mishandling—into former President Donald Trump, has spent $9.3 million more than the special counsel investigating President Joe Biden’s alleged document mishandling probe.

The sharp difference in spending was disclosed in the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) Special Counsel’s Office (SCO) expense reports—including Mr. Smith’s latest statement of expenditures and special counsel Robert Hur’s latest statement of expenditures—both of which cover the six month period between April 1, 2023, and Sept. 30, 2023.
