President Trump tore into Jack Smith as “a real sleazebag” following stunning revelations that the FBI obtained phone records of eight Republican senators under the former special counsel’s watch.
As a part of the Biden administration’s “Arctic Frost” probe helmed by Smith, the FBI conducted a “preliminary toll analysis” on the GOP lawmakers in 2023, a bombshell document released by Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) on Monday revealed.
“Deranged Jack Smith got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. A real sleazebag!!!” Trump chided on Truth Social.
Smith had led the Justice Department’s team that slapped Trump with 44 felony counts across two separate indictments, including the Mar-a-Lago document debacle and the 2020 election interference case.
Arctic Frost was the bureau’s probe into 2020 election interference concerns.
Lawmakers targeted by the bureau were Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.), Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska), Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.), Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.) and Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), as well as Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pa.), according to the document released by Grassley.
