WASHINGTON - Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) joined Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations (PSI) Chairman Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) on cover letters to three telecommunications companies that PSI is subpoenaing as part of Congress' oversight of Arctic Frost. PSI's subpoenas to AT&T, Verizon and Lumen require the companies to provide records identifying the full extent of individuals whose phone records Jack Smith targeted, including members of Congress.
"We're still learning just how far Jack Smith's fishing expedition went. These subpoenas from the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations will shine additional light on whose phone data Smith requested, including which members of Congress were impacted," Grassley said. "I thank Senator Johnson for his longstanding partnership in our oversight of Arctic Frost."
"Over the last year, Chairman Grassley and I identified hundreds of individuals and entities that Jack Smith swept into his massive partisan dragnet, including Charlie Kirk's Turning Point USA and elected officials," Johnson said. "In response to these subpoenas, I expect the telecom companies to identify even more people Jack Smith ruthlessly targeted as he weaponized the federal justice system against law-abiding patriots."
