Jim Jordan Discusses Secret Phone Data Seizure by Feds Amid 'Arctic Frost' Investigation

'Arctic Frost' Investigation Targets Jim Jordan

• 🎯 Documents reviewed by Jim Jordan reveal that the 'Arctic Frost' investigation, led by Special Counsel Jack Smith, subpoenaed Verizon for his complete phone records dating back to January 2020.
• 📱 The subpoena also requested Jordan's address, payment information, and device identifiers, covering a 28-month period.
• 🤫 A court order of secrecy was attached, prohibiting Verizon from disclosing the data request due to concerns of "flight from prosecution or witness intimidation."

Allegations of Government Weaponization

• ⚖️ Jordan asserts that this action represents the "epitome of the weaponization of government against their political" opponents, citing the targeting of President Trump, senators, and the Speaker of the House.
• 📞 The subpoena obtained call records including who called whom, when, for how long, and the location of the calls, but not the content of texts.
• 🏛️ The investigation was purportedly about January 6, 2021, yet the data request extended back to January 2020.

Concerns Over Privacy and Accountability

• 📜 Jordan emphasizes the violation of the Fourth Amendment and the Bill of Rights, questioning who authorized the subpoena, including potential knowledge by FBI Director Chris Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland.
• 🔍 He draws parallels to the seizure of Congressman Scott Perry's phone, suggesting a pattern of targeting individuals associated with President Trump.
• 📢 Jordan highlights that legislation has been passed out of his committee to push back against such gag orders and to potentially prevent carriers from complying with similar requests.

Calls for Transparency and Legal Action

• 🗣️ Jordan expresses his commitment to uncovering the truth and plans to question Jack Smith during his deposition.
• 🤝 Verizon stated they are working with the House and Senate and have shared new information with Chairman Jordan, committing to transparency.
• 🏛️ The discussion touches upon the need for accountability for those involved in what is described as "crazy, ridiculous things" by the Biden DOJ and the 'Arctic Frost' investigation.
