Multiple America First leaders are speaking out against the weaponization of the justice system, revealing that the Biden administration’s FBI “improperly” targeted Republican groups during their “Arctic Frost” probe, which included recently assassinated political powerhouse, Charlie Kirk, and his Turning Point USA organization.
During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday, Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, noted that a whistleblower confirmed that while operation “Arctic Frost” was supposedly designed to investigate claims that President Donald Trump attempted to overturn the questionable 2020 election, the FBI used its power to target Republican bystanders.
Nearly 100 Republican groups and individuals were politically targeted, including Charlie Kirk and his Turning Point USA organization, according to Grassley. He stated, “In other words, Arctic Frost wasn’t just a case to politically investigate Trump. It was a vehicle by which partisan FBI agents and Department of Justice prosecutors could achieve their partisan ends and improperly investigate the entire Republican political apparatus.”
After the hearing, Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., discussed the FBI targeting of Kirk on the Jesse Waters show on Fox News. He said he believed that the intention was purely intimidation. He called the Biden administration’s political weaponization of the justice system “Nothing but terrorism.”
“I’m so glad that Charlie was not intimidated right up to the last day that he had on this earth, that is why he is such a sterling example,” he added, stating that this can never be allowed to happen again.
The investigation has been ongoing since President Trump regained office. The 47th President even commented on the situation in a TruthSocial post on Tuesday night. He wrote, “Why was the wonderful Turning Point under investigation by ‘deranged’ Jack Smith and the Corrupt & Incompetent Biden Administration. They tried to force Charlie, and many other people and movements, out of business.” He decried the weaponization of the justice department against himself and others, declaring a need to hold those involved accountable.
