This Is Joe Biden's Watergate

And this is why I laugh when Democrats, the media, and other lefty commentators say that Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, and President Trump have weaponized the Department of Justice. No, that’s you people. It will always be you people, and it’s not far off to say that those on the Left are enemies of the state. Arctic Frost was revealed to be a widespread Biden DOJ spy operation that sought to surveil the activities of a host of conservative organizations. No, scratch that—it was a mass surveillance operation into the conservative movement writ large. The late Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA was spied on, part of former Special Counsel Jack Smith’s fishing expedition against Donald Trump.

It gets worse: Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) revealed more about this operation, in which close to a dozen Republican senators, himself included, were the targets of telecommunications subpoenas, thanks to a whistleblower. Other organizations within the conservative orbit were also targets of Biden’s rogue and corrupt Justice Department. Former Attorney General Merrick Garland and Smith demanded that AT&T hand over phone records and metadata from these individuals. And who signed off on these legal actions? Judge James E. Boasberg, who should face impeachment inquiries:

Jack Smith subpoenaed (Senator) Cruz’s cell phone records from AT&T. AT&T was ordered by corrupt Judge James Boasberg banning AT&T from disclosing the subpoena to Cruz. Boasberg told AT&T that if Cruz was informed, Cruz would destroy evidence and imperil national security.

"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.

“The subpoena requested records and communications related to over 430 individual and organizations — all of them appear to be aimed at Republicans,” the Iowa Republican added, noting requests sent to the late conservative icon Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA and the Republican Attorneys General Association.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), one of the nine Republicans whose phone metadata was sought, said “Arctic Frost is Joe Biden’s Watergate.”

“Merrick Garland was a fundamentally corrupt attorney general. Jack Smith was a fundamentally corrupt prosecutor. This was a political enemies list from the beginning,” he told reporters, brandishing the court order that demanded AT&T hand over his cell records to the feds.

The order was signed by US District Court Chief Judge James Boasberg and barred the cell carrier from letting Cruz know about the request “for at least one year,” he said.

[…]

Garland, Deputy AG Lisa Monaco and FBI Director Christopher Wray all authorized the investigation, according to other files released by Grassley. "

According to new records provided through "legally protected whistleblower disclosures" @ChuckGrassley 197 subpoenas sought testimony, records and communications..

"...related to at least 430 named Republican individuals and entities. Some of the records (Special Counsel Jack) Smith subpoenaed from banks, individuals and businesses included:

•Communications with media companies such as CBS, Fox News, Fox Business, Newsmax, Sinclair and others. •Communications with “any member, employee or agent of the Legislative Branch of the U.S. Government.” •Communications with White House advisors, such as Stephen Miller, Dan Scavino, Jared Kushner, Lara Trump and others. •Statistical data and analysis relating to donors and fundraising efforts. •Broad financial data relating to conservative individuals and entities."

From a comment on another site:

"Biden's weaponization of the Federal Govt against his political enemies is a combination of treason, insurrection, and sedition, and those at their highest possible order. Oh, and all of this occurred while he was in the act of selling his influence (and American interests along with it) to the highest bidders. All in, Biden's collective crimes outclass Watergate like genocidal war crimes outclass a traffic ticket."

[al baby]

OBAMA made him do it

[pas]

US District Court Chief Judge James Boasberg. Why is the Trump admin not working to remove him with cause? Having AT&T not inform Cruz with a claim of national security was a lie from the bench.

[kiryandil]

“Judge” James E. Boasberg - Stooge Jerk E. Biasedjerk.

[pas]

I take that back it is Congress that needs to impeach him.

[kiryandil]

Save rope - hang Biasedjerk and Merrittless back to back.

[HereInTheHeartland]

This should be a bold font headline in major newspapers and breaking news alerts on TV screens.
This is an extremely serious thing they did

[HIDEK6]

OBAMA made him do DID it.

[FreeReign]

From a comment on another site:......."All in, Biden's collective crimes outclass Watergate like genocidal war crimes outclass a traffic ticket."

Yup. The author should stop with the Watergate comparison.

[Tell It Right]

Agreed. Each of Artic Frost and Crossfire Hurricane were way worse than Watergate. Together they make Nixon look like a choir boy.

[rlmorel]

This is not "Joe Biden's" Watergate. It is the American Left's "Watergate".

I was listening to a guest on the Vince show the other day talk about this, and he said the Leftists in government driving this such as Comey, Brennan and such were so brazen that they even named it "Arctic Frost" as a dig at Trump, an inside joke, if you will.

I wondered why the operation was called "Arctic Frost", and just assumed it was something generated to throw off giving away any information on the operation via the name.

The guest on the "Vince" Podcast say that it was a deliberate, brazen, inside joke by Leftists, because "Arctic Frost" is the name of a type of orange.

I didn't believe it, but looked it up:

Yep. An orange tree. That dig is no idle coincidence.

The Left loves Watergate. They have used it to salt the ground that Richard Nixon walked on, his very existence is not to be discussed except as an example of something that is an example of all that is evil in the world. He is expunged from history except as an example of what should not be done.

This was the exact same thing that was done to Senator Joseph McCarthy, a man, who like Nixon, is treated exactly the same by the Left to this very day, even though history has proven McCarthy was exactly right.

And that is what they wish fervently to do to Donald J. Trump.

So, I hope that this is the Left's "Watergate" and it does to them what they did to Nixon, McCarthy, and so many others, banishing them to the political wilderness forever.

It likely won't happen that way for the Left, because there is a sucker born every minute, but I like the thought of it.

[Texas Fossil]

another Watergate?

Biden was not removed from office.

Slo Joe did absolutely nothing but Lie and pursue Evil. And then Exited Stage Left.

Nixon was framed. Yes, he made mistakes. But over all, he was a good president. (the RINO GOPe told Nixon they would remove him. What he did, was dumb. He was never convicted of anything.)

[nuconvert]

It will never amount to much if the msm continues to ignore or downplay it.

[Flavious_Maximus]

Boasberg, Smith and Garland should ALL be executed by military firing squad. The Quisling Puppet Biden will get protection because of his previous presidential status (even though it was attained through massive election fraud).

At the very least. those three MUST be rotting in prison for a very long time. NO EXCEPTIONS!

[Regulator]

Lemme know when the weaklings manage to remove Boasberg at minimum. He knew what he was doing was a political hit, no “law” behind it. He knew that Smith was just Garland’s hit man.

But he apparently also knows that the elected Republicants are squeamish butt lickers. They can’t stand the dirt clods that will be thrown at them if they pull Boasberg into a hearing and he bleats that he was “just doing his job”.

When they get the stones to do that and then un-bench the SOB, they may have a chance.

Don’t hold your breath.

[Chewbarkah]

It would seem interesting to charge Biden over Arctic Frostgate first. Within seconds, every Dem in politics and media will roar that Biden is innocent because he was demented and totally incapitated at the time. Then charge all who perpetrated the late-term spree of pardons, clemencies, executive orders, and all things autopen. Within seconds, the same stooges will howl that Biden was sharp as a tack and knew all about every item the autopen signed.

This can work in the other direction too, but jailing Biden isn’t going to happen, whereas voiding the autopen’s usurpation of power/prosecuting the perpetrators matters.

[Regulator]

You missed the main point.

Biden controlled nothing, even when he was semi-sentient.

Obama called all the shots.

But prosecuting the Magic Negro is not possible.

[ronnie raygun]

when do they stop flapping lips and start the perp walk for all these treasonous pri###s

[lee martell]

A bumper crop of crimes now committed.
A famine of indictments and/ or convictions.
A lopsided ratio persists for now.

[SaxxonWoods]

Watergate? Hardly. Watergate ended a presidency, Biden’s crimes went completely unpunished.
