The FBI performed a “toll analysis” (a term for examining phone call records and metadata) on eight Republican senators and one congressman.
This was supposedly part of a secretive investigation codenamed “Arctic Frost”.
The surveillance allegedly occurred after Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago raid and during Jack Smith’s investigation into Trump and the January 6th events.
The senators targeted include:
Lindsey Graham, Bill Haggerty, Josh Hawley, Dan Sullivan, Tommy Tuberville, Ron Johnson, Cynthia Lummis, and Marsha Blackburn — with Representative Mike Kelly also mentioned.
An introductory narrator asserting the FBI’s wrongdoing.
Quoted remarks from Senators Ron Johnson, Chuck Grassley, Bill Haggerty, and others, condemning the alleged surveillance.
Repeated claims that this represents “weaponization of government” and “political persecution.”
Statements linking this case to prior alleged abuses under the Obama administration and investigations into Trump.
🧩 2. Government “Weaponization” and Political Retaliation
The first section describes a Senate hearing involving:
Attorney General Pam Bondi testifying before the Senate.
Senator Josh Hawley accusing the Biden administration, the DOJ, and the FBI of “weaponizing” federal agencies against Republicans.
Claims include:
FBI phone tapping of Republican senators (e.g., Lindsey Graham, Marsha Blackburn).
Surveillance of conservative organizations such as Turning Point USA.
Targeting of Catholics, parents at school board meetings, and pro-life activists.
Bondi asserts that “weaponization under Donald Trump has ended,” suggesting this scene takes place under a new Trump administration that is “restoring justice.”
Story 3 – “FBI Abuse and Cover-Up”
FBI Director Kash Patel has fired agents involved in tracking phone calls of eight Republican senators and one congressman during a supposed investigation led by Special Counsel Jack Smith.
It describes a hidden vault of subpoenaed communication records, suggesting a deliberate cover-up under the previous administration’s Department of Justice.
The text portrays Patel as a whistleblower uncovering “deep state” corruption and restoring transparency.
Senator Josh Hawley is quoted condemning the investigation as an abuse of power “beyond Watergate”, calling for a special counsel.
The narrative concludes that the FBI and DOJ were weaponized against political opponents and that new leadership is “unsealing the vault” to expose them.

| 0:05.1 | This is a story that I'm about to tell you that it's an incredibly important one. |
| 0:09.8 | It is a fact now that the FBI literally spied on not one, not two, not three, four, five, six, seven, but eight GOP senators. |
| 0:24.6 | It was called a total analysis. |
| 0:27.7 | That is the terminology that's used by FBI investigators to analyze cellular call data for |
| 0:34.7 | federal probes. |
| 0:35.8 | Think of it as link analysis that shows patterns of communication, |
| 0:42.1 | location data, as well as potential targets network of associates. This should shock every |

| 0:59.3 | code name Arctic Frost, |
| 1:01.8 | was brought because of a whistleblower disclosures |
| 1:04.3 | to Senator Grassley and Senator Ron Johnson |
| 1:07.5 | that showed nearly 100 conservative groups, including Turning Point USA, were part |
| 1:16.2 | of the probe. |
| 1:18.0 | Now you have something that's even more shocking, and that is not only was the FBI going |
| 1:23.1 | after conservative groups, but the FBI was spying on senators. |
| 1:30.7 | And some of those senators are now fighting back. |
| 1:34.9 | Senator Ron Johnson saying it this way in a statement earlier. I was just briefed by the FBI's Dan Bongino that the FBI and the Justice Department |
| 1:42.0 | obtained call logs from eight U.S. senators, including myself. |
| 1:48.4 | We were surveilled simply for being Republicans. |
