The New York Times saw fit to omit the disgraceful misuse of the Department of Justice (DOJ) from its front page. The Gray Lady’s traditional motto is “All the News That’s Fit to Print,” but it should be “All the news that is fit to print if we say it is important and after we have massaged the messaging.” The New York Times used a good chunk of its front page real estate Thursday for a story about the historically black Talladega College, which is selling its black history art murals to avert a financial crisis.
The Washington Post front page ignored Arctic Frost too, using its space for a riveting story about how long people must wait on hold when they call the Social Security Administration. It is “A maddening ordeal for callers,” the Post reported, stating the obvious.
It was the same on the CNN, ABC News, CBS News, and NBC News websites. Not a word Thursday morning about Arctic Frost and how former Special Counsel Jack Smith and his team issued 197 subpoenas desperately seeking legitimate reasons to stop Trump’s presidential campaign. (CNN did find it important to report on “ethical carnivores” harvesting road kill though.)
According to a statement from the Senate Judiciary Committee, the 197 subpoenas the corporate press is not talking about were seeking:
If the firepower of the federal government’s well-resourced FBI investigated and surveilled the entire Democrat Party, with no legitimate probable cause, with the intent of destroying the party — as Biden’s government did to Republicans — the media would run nonstop hysterical coverage. But in the case of Arctic Frost, the corporate media ignores or downplays the scandal, and in doing so helps shield the Democrat perpetrators from accountability.
No doubt before long we will hear, “Why are you still talking about Biden’s term?” And the media will spin Arctic Frost as a right-wing conspiracy theory instead of explaining the troubling, likely criminal overreach, and exploring the very real possibility that the DOJ and FBI could still be infected with people who engaged in these warrantless, partisan investigations.

Boasberg’s Senate Spying Gag Order Violated Federal Law

Boasberg is one of many low-court judges who have shown themselves to be lawless political actors whose jurisprudence is hostile to a functioning republic.

According to Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, as part of the Biden administration’s “Arctic Frost” inquiry dead set on targeting Republicans in battleground states, Special Counsel Jack Smith, who led the get-Trump lawfare for years, “secretly obtained phone record data from at least eight senators and one congressman.”
Smith also sought to obtain Cruz’s phone records from AT&T, which ultimately declined to hand over the records.
The Biden Department of Justice tried to seize Cruz’s “cell phone communications,” according to the senator, and Boasberg signed off on a “nondisclosure” gag order on AT&T that would have kept the telecommunications company from notifying Cruz of the seizure for at least a year. According to Boasberg’s order, obtained by Cruz, “The court finds reasonable grounds to believe that such disclosure will result in destruction of, or tampering with evidence, intimidation of potential witnesses, and serious jeopardy to the investigation.”
There is “precisely zero evidence to conclude that I am likely to destroy or tamper with evidence or to intimidate potential witnesses,” Cruz said. “Zero evidentiary basis for that. This order is an abuse of power. This order is a weaponized legal system.”
But aside from the bogus basis for the gag order, Boasberg actually appears to have violated federal law in issuing the order in the first place.
“If this phone was an official phone (I suspect it was), then this was likely in violation of 2 U.S.C. 6628. If Smith or Boasberg violated that statute, it’s a very serious problem that probably justifies a bar investigation and could predicate an impeachment inquiry,” Mike Fragoso, fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, noted.
The law reads as follows:
That law bans gag orders on the collection of Senate data and communications, and requires notice to the Senate to give it the opportunity to stop any subpoenas on separation of powers grounds. The statute also requires that courts stop those subpoenas if the Senate opposes them.
As The Federalist CEO Sean Davis pointed out, “Boasberg issued the illegal gag order precisely to prevent the Senate from going to court to vindicate its rights.” In other words, the Senate would never have been able to stop the surveillance because it never knew about it — and that was the point because “he knew the Senate would have IMMEDIATELY gone to court to nuke the Biden administration’s illegal spying against at least eight U.S. senators.”
Boasberg has abused these nondisclosure orders (NDOs) so much that three Democrat-appointed appellate judges reversed an “omnibus” NDO approved by Boasberg after he violated the Stored Communications Act, which requires a judge, rather than a prosecutor, to determine an NDO is proper after meeting five factors.
“It permitted the government to apply the nondisclosure order prospectively to unidentified subpoenas, and to apply the nondisclosure order to subpoenas directed at a wide and unpredictable range of accounts,” the appellate judges wrote, noting the “unique features” of the widespread NDO.
Of the three branches of government, the judiciary does not have the power of the purse, and it does not have a military — it maintains its legitimacy by executing its duties in a fair, impartial, and lawful manner. While its legitimacy and reputation are already diminished and fleeting — especially because Boasberg and many others are working hard to make sure that is the case — the circumstances call for the other branches (primarily the legislative) to take dramatic action before the judiciary is irreparably destroyed.
Through collusion on get-Trump lawfare, and through the judicial coup undertaken after Trump took office again in January, many low-court judges have shown themselves to be political actors with hackish (often extremely low-IQ) jurisprudence that is hostile to a functioning republic.
They all need to be impeached.
This is a crisis call growing louder in Washington, D.C., with many calling for impeachment openly, and some, including those in government and even some federal judges, doing so behind the scenes.
Although it is unlikely that any of them will be removed by the 67 senators required to do so, they need to be put on notice, fearing for their credibility and careers.
