Garland, Wray, and Monaco personally approved FBI Arctic Frost probe, memo shows

Grassley revealed DOJ memo showing Garland, Monaco, and Wray personally approved the Arctic Frost probe targeting GOP officials.

Attorney General Merrick Garland and ranking Biden administration Justice Department officials signed off on the Arctic Frost investigation, which later evolved into the criminal election interference indictment targeting President Donald Trump, according to a newly declassified memo released Thursday by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA).

The four-page memo, signed by then-FBI Director Chris Wray and dated April 4, 2022, sought Garland’s authorization for a “full sensitive investigative matter” based on “open source reporting and public statements” about alleged “fraudulent certificates of electors” following the 2020 election. Garland approved the request the next day, alongside then-Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco’s handwritten note: “Merrick — I recommend you approve.”

Biden AG Merrick Garland and FBI Director Chris Wray Personally Approved Opening of “Arctic Frost” Investigation Into Trump

BREAKING: Biden AG Merrick Garland and FBI Director Chris Wray Personally Approved Opening of “Arctic Frost” Investigation Into Trump | The Gateway Pundit | by Cristina Laila

Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley on Thursday released documents revealing that Biden’s Attorney General Merrick Garland, former FBI Director Chris Wray and corrupt DOJ official Lisa Monaco personally approved opening the “Arctic Frost” investigation into President Trump.

Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley on Thursday released documents revealing that Biden’s Attorney General Merrick Garland, former FBI Director Chris Wray and corrupt DOJ official Lisa Monaco personally approved opening the “Arctic Frost” investigation into President Trump.

Arctic Frost led to Jack Smith’s Trump 2020 alternate electors case.

Republican Senators Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson earlier this year released new records detailing the FBI and DOJ’s sweeping investigation that formed the basis of Jack Smith’s DC case against President Trump.

Grassley and Johnson previously blew the lid off another sham investigation orchestrated by Biden’s corrupt Department of Justice and compromised FBI.

According to the documents released earlier this year, the FBI and DOJ weaponized their power to target President Trump, former Vice President Mike Pence, and their allies through a probe dubbed “Arctic Frost.”

“Operation Arctic Frost” was a taxpayer-funded witch hunt launched in April 2022 that seized government-issued cell phones belonging to Trump and Pence while conducting a barrage of interviews across the country.

It was recently reported that Joe Biden’s FBI – and later Jack Smith – spied on eight Republican Senators during the ‘Arctic Frost’ investigation into January 6.

Jack Smith tracked private phone calls of eight GOP Senators.

Here’s the list:

“Opening of this full investigation is governed by the DOJ Memo. The DOJ Memo requires written notification to and consultation with the Assistant Attorney General and U.S. Attorney with jurisdiction over the matter and written approval of the Attorney General, through the Deputy Attorney General, prior the opening of any investigation of a declared candidate for president or vice president, a presidential campaign, or a senior presidential campaign staff member or advisor,” the document read.

“It is assessed that the pool of potential subjects may include individuals who fall into one or more of these categories. Although members of the 45th Presidential administration are no longer in office, the DOJ Memo states that the scope of this policy should be broadly construed to ensure that Department leadership is made aware of the opening of matters that could potentially be disruptive to the democratic process if publicly disclosed prior to an election, encouraging the FBI to err on the side of caution or seeking approval if there could be any question as to whether such actions are required under this policy,” the document read.

“The Assistant Attorney General for the Criminal Division has been consulted, as has the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia.”

“Just received this doc frm DOJ Proof that Biden Atty General Merrick Garland+ Deputy Atty General Lisa Monaco+ FBI Dir Chris Wray all PERSONALLY APPROVED opening Arctic Frost,” Grassley said.

“This investigation unleashed unchecked govt power at the highest levels My oversight will continue,” he added.

“Does Chicago have the highest murder rate of all the big cities?”

Governor J.B. Pritzker joined Brett Baier on Special Report on Thursday night on FOX News.

Pritzker thought he’d be able to come on and spit out some nonsense about Chicago murders and violent crimes.

It didn’t go so well for him. Baier fact-checked him in real-time.

Pritzker attempted to bloviate about Chicago’s murder rate. That’s when Baier flashed the numbers on the screen and Pritzker got caught!

Chicago leads the nation in big-city murder rate.

Brett Baier: Does Chicago have the highest murder rate of all the big cities?

Governor Pritzker: Well, we are not in the top 30 in terms of our murder rate. Indeed, our murder rate has been cut in half over the last four years, and every year it’s gone down by double digits. If you look at all of the violent crime over the last four years, they’ve all gone down.

Brett Baier: Here’s a map. Most populous US cities, 17. 47 per 100,000 population. Chicago is number one over Philadelphia, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Phoenix, Los Angeles, New York, and Diego.
