Former Special Counsel Jack Smith is questioned on an email from Department of Justice Deputy Chief John Keller as he testifies during a hearing before the House Judiciary Committee in the Rayburn House Office Building on Capitol Hill on January 22, in Washington, DC. They do reveal phone numbers for incoming and outgoing calls, the time of the calls, and the duration of the calls, among other things. Here’s how Smith explained toll records during his closed-door deposition last month: “Toll records were sought for historical telephone routing information, collected after calls had taken place, identifying the incoming and outgoing call numbers, the time of the calls and their duration. Toll records do not include the content of calls. Smith said last month in his private deposition that this was a “false and misleading” narrative.
