(The Federalist) In exposing Jack Smith’s lawless, corrupt, and tyrannical effort to criminalize the MAGA movement, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, revealed jarring new details about the extent of the Jan. 6-justified lawfare campaign.
Smith’s partisan team carried out a fishing expedition on behalf of the Biden administration and Democrat Party that went beyond obtaining the text messages of more than 40 members of Congress despite the weaponizers knowing it likely violated the Constitution’s speech and debate clause. It also encompassed the issuance of some 197 subpoenas for records relating to 430 Republican individuals and organizations, or the collection of nearly 5,000 checks from mainly small-dollar Trump donors. But on top of all that, Grassley divulged that Smith’s sleuths secured messages from 87 Trump I White House phones and hoovered up the communications of nearly 50 media members at well over a dozen outlets, including those of The Federalist’s own Mollie Hemingway.
