President Trump tore into Jack Smith as “a real sleazebag” following stunning revelations that the FBI obtained phone records of eight Republican senators under the former special counsel’s watch.
As a part of the Biden administration’s “Arctic Frost” probe helmed by Smith, the FBI conducted a “preliminary toll analysis” on the GOP lawmakers in 2023, a bombshell document released by Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) on Monday revealed.
“Deranged Jack Smith got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. A real sleazebag!!!” Trump chided on Truth Social.
Smith had led the Justice Department team that slapped Trump with 44 felony counts across two separate indictments, including the Mar-a-Lago document debacle and the 2020 election interference case.
Arctic Frost was the bureau’s probe into 2020 election interference concerns.
The probe launched in April 2022 and Smith took it over later that year.
Lawmakers targeted by the bureau were Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.), Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska), Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.), Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.) and Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), as well as Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pa.), according to the document released by Grassley.
GOP senators said they had no idea what grounds the FBI had to allegedly spy on them. The agency is believed to have looked at phone records such as who called who and at what time, rather than actually tapping in on calls, according to Johnson. --->READ MORE HERE

The Biden FBI targeted eight Republican senators’ personal cell phone information as part of an investigation that evolved into lawfare against Donald Trump, new records published Monday show.
The agency document released by Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, indicates that the FBI sought and obtained the cell phone “tolling data” of eight GOP senators and Rep. Mike Kelly, R-Penn., as part of its “Arctic Frost” inquiry in 2023. That investigation ultimately became Special Counsel Jack Smith‘s elector lawfare against Trump.
According to a Senate Judiciary Committee press release, the FBI obtained the data “about the senators’ phone use from January 4 through January 7, 2021.” The information, the presser noted, “shows when and to whom a call is made, as well as the duration and general location data of the call,” but “does not include the content of the call.”
The eight Senate Republicans targeted in the probe include Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Bill Hagerty and Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Josh Hawley of Missouri, Dan Sullivan of Alaska, Tommy Tuberville of Alabama, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, and Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming.
“Based on the evidence to-date, Arctic Frost and related weaponization by federal law enforcement under Biden was arguably worse than Watergate,” Grassley said in a statement. “What I’ve uncovered today is disturbing and outrageous political conduct by the Biden FBI. The FBI’s actions were an unconstitutional breach, and Attorney General Bondi and Director Patel need to hold accountable those involved in this serious wrongdoing.” --->READ MORE HEREFollow link below to a relevant video:
