President Trump has revoked security clearances for a law firm that assisted the beleaguered Special Counsel Jack Smith, who spent $50 million prosecuting Trump under Biden. According to Trump, the action was in line with his Executive Order 14147 of January 20, 2025, titled “Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government.”

The revocation follows a similar action targeting 51 intel chiefs who signed a letter downplaying Hunter Biden’s laptop story as possibly a Russian disinformation campaign. Trump also withdrew the security clearances for the former head of Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley, who briefed China during the January 6 Capitol protests.

According to the White House, the order affects a D.C. legal services firm Covington & Burling LLP, including “Peter Koski and all members, partners, and employees.”
