Here are a few top Team Elise updates and stories we have been tracking for the past week! 

Elise Files DOJ Ethics Complaint Against Biden Special Counsel Jack Smith for Election Interference

On Tuesday, Elise filed an ethics complaint with the Department of Justice's Office of Professional Responsibility against Biden Justice Department Special Counsel Jack Smith for abusing federal government resources to interfere with the 2024 presidential election illegally.

"Jack Smith’s multiple attempts to rush to trial the federal January 6th case against President Trump violated long-standing, explicit Justice Department policy. Further, Jack Smith’s repeated violations of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia’s stay of proceedings are a lawless breach of trial ethics and lawyerly conduct. Jack Smith’s actions brought disrepute to the Justice Department and the federal government as a whole, and he should face discipline appropriately.”

Elise Demands Biden Stop Protecting Disgraced Michael Cohen

On Wednesday, Elise and House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chair Mike Turner demanded Joe Biden’s Department of Justice conduct a perjury probe of Michael Cohen following his admission to lying in sworn testimony in front of the Intelligence Committee in February of 2019.

“The Biden Administration’s attempts to stonewall this investigation is yet another example of Biden’s lawfare against President Trump. It’s time Joe Biden stop weaponizing the federal government against his leading political opponent.”

Elise Keeps Pressure on Columbia University President

On Monday, Elise released a statement condemning Columbia President Shafik for surrendering to the pro-Hamas sympathizers and failing to protect Columbia’s Jewish students. Columbia University's leadership has repeatedly extended their deadlines and refused to hold these terrorist sympathizers accountable. Elise stated –

“Columbia has surrendered to the radical pro-Hamas antisemitic mob instead of securing campus and protecting Columbia’s Jewish students. There can be no more extensions or delays. There can be no negotiations with self-proclaimed Hamas terrorists and their sympathizers.”

Elise Publishes Op-Ed Calling to Restore Law & Order and Moral Decency to U.S. Universities

On Thursday, Elise published an op-ed in Fox News condemning the moral rot that has taken root across many of America's higher education institutions, calling for law, order, and moral decency to be restored. Read an excerpt from Elise’s op-ed –

“Americans are watching in disgust as chaos spreads at college campuses across our country. Jewish students and faculty fear for their safety as antisemitism goes unchecked, and the rule of law is abandoned by morally bankrupt university leaders taking their lead from President Joe Biden.

Enough is enough. It is time to restore law, order, and moral decency to Columbia and universities across this country.”
