Overview

• In questioning of FBI Director Kash Patel, Sen. Chuck Grassley said records show the probe extended to Republican groups such as Turning Point USA, the RNC, and the Republican Attorneys General Association.
• He said the investigation, initially opened to examine efforts to overturn the 2020 election, expanded to include 92 Republican-linked organizations and individuals.
• Grassley said he and Sen. Ron Johnson are making the Arctic Frost records public today.
• He asserted the matter later connected to Special Counsel Jack Smith’s elector case involving President Trump.
• Grassley also cited an FBI agent’s “Wow, great” reaction to the DOJ’s prosecution of Peter Navarro, while Patel’s appearance followed Charlie Kirk’s Sept. 10 assassination and the Sept. 12 arrest of suspect Tyler Robinson.
