Exclusive: Watchdog Files Bar Complaint Against Christopher Wray Over Arctic Frost Lawfare
The Federalist ^ | 3/26/26 | Shawn Fleetwood

Posted on 03/26/2026 5:37:09 PM PDT by CFW

A good government group filed a formal bar complaint against former FBI Director Christopher Wray on Thursday for his role in greenlighting the Biden administration’s Arctic Frost lawfare against Donald Trump, The Federalist has learned. The complaint asks the D.C. Bar to investigate the former director for potential violations of existing bar rules governing licensed D.C. attorneys.

“The common theme of those targeted by Arctic Frost was their connection to President Trump, the chief political rival to Joe Biden at the time. Wray’s involvement warrants further inquiry to determine if any professional conduct rules were violated during the course of his oversight,” Center to Advance Security in America (CASA) Director James Fitzpatrick said in a statement to The Federalist.

The complaint obtained by The Federalist cites an April 2022 Justice Department memo previously released by Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, that shows Wray as one of several high-ranking intel officials to sign off on Special Counsel Jack Smith’s Arctic Frost probe. As The Federalist previously reported, the expansive investigation — which also targeted numerous GOP members of Congress and Republican-affiliated individuals and organizations — ultimately became Smith’s elector lawfare against Trump.

In the complaint, Fitzpatrick argued that the actions taken by Smith and his team “were likely performed at the behest of Wray and others.” “At the very least,” he wrote, “they were performed as a result of [Wray’s] recommendations.”

This could actually be interesting. Not that the D.C. Bar would do anything to Wray, but the response to the complaint might provide some interesting information.

I guess the Department of Justice was too busy to take this action? I’m glad a private group found the time.

Why are these first rumblings of comeuppance for Christopher Wray taking so long?

“I guess the Department of Justice was too busy to take this action? I’m glad a private group found the time.”


That was one of my first thoughts as well. Just like it takes a young 22 year old independent reporter to uncover all the day care center fraud in MN. And O’Keefe to bring attention to the vote “buying” from the homeless in California.

BTW, has anyone ever heard of the Oversight Committee actually stopping any fraud and corruption in our federal government? Have their investigations and hearings resulted in anyone going to prison? Or, is that where corruption goes to be smothered, covered, and never heard from again?

Congressional committees can’t prosecute and the can do is collect information(investigate) and refer to the DOJ for action.

No American bar association will ever sanction a D for an anti-trump crime.

Everything will be termed, “Classified Information”.
Trump will need to declassify it.
Courts will take years just to hear it.
