WASHINGTON — Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) released additional FBI files Wednesday revealing that hundreds more Republican groups and persons were targeted in a “fishing expedition” brought by special counsel Jack Smith.
In a press conference alongside other GOP senators, Grassley announced that he was making public the 197 subpoenas issued by Smith as part of the Arctic Frost probe, which became “the vehicle by which FBI agents and DOJ prosecutors could improperly investigate the entire Republican political apparatus.”
“I’ve obtained through legally protected whistleblower disclosures,” Grassley said. “197 subpoenas were issued by Jack Smith and his team. These subpoenas were issued to 34 individuals and 163 businesses, including financial institutions.

I’m sure that if a Republican-nominated judge had done this against numerous Democrat elected officials, they’d just let it slide. “He must have had his reasons,” the MSM would say.
You misspelled “Biasedjerk”...
He needs to be sitting in a cell in Guantanamo Bay until he coughs up that answer - with proof.
Follow el dinero!
The Meritless Garland seems to be a strong Person Of Interest.
“...The most important question is, “Who owns Jack Smith?”...”
The person who bought him owns him....still.
DOJ should follow the money trail and see if it stops at the feet of one known as Georgy Soros. Spit.
Concentration camps for all opposed!
Communists do that
Who knew
Question is...what will the quivering quislings do about it?!
The last federal judge to make the 2/3rds requirement in the US senate was Alcee Hastings, was removed in 1989.
Where is Smith at the moment? Is he in the US? Or is he hiding out courtesy of EU pedocrats?
Why don’t you try to find out?
I will..
The probably did tap DeSantis. The proof hasn’t surfaced yet.
