So Arctic Frost was the FBI investigation opened in 2022, allegedly into the fake electoral scheme.

And this was a plan by American citizens in five states to send alternative slates of electors to the National Archives, perhaps to Congress.

Now, Steve, a top

Archives official testified to Congress in 2022 that this happens every four years, that American citizens who protest or object to the outcome of the election, their guy didn't win, so they send made-up electoral certificates to the archives.

Happens every four years.

Only, though, after the 2020 election.

Did this become a crime in the eyes of then Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco?

You and I have talked about Lisa Monaco several times.

I have covered her since she was appointed, nominated Deputy Attorney General by Joe Biden in early 2021.

You know, I will tell you the senators who 48 Republican senators who voted to confirm her as deputy attorney general in April of 2021, there were only two who did not Ted Cruz and Rand Paul.

So now all the senators who helped confirm her, guess what she did.

She turned around the next year and, uh, helped to open an investigation into the alternative slate of electors that then turned into.

when Special Counsel Jack Smith took over, subpoenaing the cell phone records of nine senators, including Ted Cruz, nine Republican senators who planned to object to the certification on January 6th.

So this was a wide-ranging investigation.

Of course, it resulted in the indictment of President Trump, but it looks like they had their sights on others, including...

top US Republican senators and House members.

But what the memo disclosed that was issued this week, this 2022 memo, is that this was run through Lisa Monaco.

This was her idea.

She served it up to FBI Director Christopher Wray.

They went to Attorney General Merrick Garland to open up what they call a sensitive investigative matter, which deals with political investigations.
