| Rand Paul - Jack Smith's ‘Arctic Frost' spies snooped on Congress ‐ time to rein in the spooks |

| [NYP] Advocates for government surveillance often argue that if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear. I’m sure Jack Smith, the special counsel President Joe Biden appointed to do whatever it takes to bring down Donald Trump, took solace in that bromide as he rifled through the personal data of 10 members of Congress, illegally attempting lawfare to implicate these elected officials in some contrived insurrection. Arctic Frost is the chilly name the FBI gave its unconstitutional fishing expedition. How could such an abuse of power occur in a nation famous for its protections against unreasonable searches and seizures, enshrined in the Fourth Amendment? Well, the story of government’s abuse of search-and-seizure power is long — and in the modern era, it largely begins with litigation concerning the privacy of one’s phone. |
