From Breitbart:

Files obtained by Fox News show that Smith, in his official capacity at the Department of Justice (DOJ) as he investigated President Donald Trump and the events of January 6, 2021, was allegedly tracking the phone calls of Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham (SC), Marsha Blackburn (TN), Ron Johnson (WI), Josh Hawley (MO), Cynthia Lummis (WY), Bill Hagerty (TN), Dan Sullivan (AK), Tommy Tuberville (AL), and Republican Rep. Mike Kelly (PA).

The alarming document, revealing that Smith and his “Arctic Frost” team had subpoenaed telephone providers for the lawmakers’ records in 2023, was “recently discovered” by Patel, according to Fox News.

Patel confirmed the legitimacy of the findings in an X post, writing, “We recently uncovered proof that phone records of U.S. lawmakers were seized for political purposes.”

According to the FBI, Smith and his team were able to see the numbers the targeted lawmakers contacted, the locations lawmakers made calls from, and the locations where those calls were received.

Targeted lawmakers were quick to comment on the reveal. Senator Hawley called the action an “abuse of power beyond watergate.” Senator Hagerty, meanwhile, emphasized that President Trump and his allies were also surveilled under the Obama administration. “This isn’t the first time that it’s happened,” he said.

This is yet another way in which the Biden administration targeted innocent Americans, weaponizing the federal government against them. As more truths continue to come out, let’s pray that our government would never again be used to oppress American citizens.
