It happened again: an explosive report drops detailing the breadth, width and scope of the extent to which the government was weaponized against conservatives. And again, the legacy media are nowhere to be found.
Per Fox News:
EXCLUSIVE: Former Special Counsel Jack Smith was allegedly tracking the private communications and phone calls of nearly a dozen Republican Senators as part of his investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riots, Fox News Digital has learned.
A document, reviewed by Fox News Digital, revealed that Smith and his "Arctic Frost" team investigating Jan. 6 were allegedly tracking the phone calls of GOP Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Josh Hawley of Missouri, Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming, Bill Hagerty of Tennessee, Dan Sullivan of Alaska, Tommy Tuberville of Alabama and GOP Rep. Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania.
The document, recently discovered by FBI Director Kash Patel and exclusively obtained by Fox News Digital, is titled "CAST Assistance" and dated Sept. 27, 2023. "CAST" refers to the FBI’s cellular analysis survey team.
This document was made public today by Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley. Jack Smith tracking the phone calls of Members of Congress- who they called, what numbers. And Lord knows what else within Smith’s subpoena of cell phone providers. This is where we are. We hear a lot about weaponization of government and "attacks on Democracy”, but this one is an actual attack on Democracy.
The story broke with more than enough time to draw coverage across the legacy newscasts. But there was no such coverage on the evening news at ABC, CBS, and NBC. There was nothing but silence with the network newscasts instead reporting more relevant matters to the American public such as Taylor Swift’s new music video, moon cakes, and LeBron James’ upcoming “Big Decision.”
Of course, this comes as a surprise to no one. Our very own Rich Noyes documented similar omissions during the 2024 campaign. The media concealed the partisan affiliation of those who conducted state-sponsored lawfare against President Donald Trump. In this instance, the legacy newscasts simply omitted the story outright.
As is often the case with the legacy media, expect no coverage on this matter until it can be trumpwashed- that is, until whatever thing President Donald Trump says or does in reaction to this blatant weaponization of government can be spun to the public as worse than the underlying weaponization.
