The Biden administration spied on nearly 20% of Republicans in Congress, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) revealed in a Wednesday bombshell. 

Specifically, Grassley released 197 subpoenas that the Biden FBI reportedly used to gather testimony and information on over 400 Republican targets as part of the agency's "Arctic Frost" probe. 

"197 subpoenas were issued by Jack Smith and his team. These subpoenas were issued to 34 individuals and 163 businesses, including financial institutions," Grassley said, adding "Arctic Frost was the vehicle by which partisan FBI agents and DOJ prosecutors could improperly investigate the entire Republican political apparatus. Contrary to what Smith has said publicly, this was clearly a fishing expedition." 

According to Grassley, the subpoenas included "nonpublic, confidential grand jury material" that he obtained via whistleblower disclosures, as well as financial information from conservative organizations like TPUSA and the Republican Attorneys General Association. 

Biden's jackboots also went after media organizations, including Fox News and Newsmax.

The US Ambassador to the North Atlantic Alliance urged Russia to end the war in Ukraine, claiming that President Donald Trump has “more cards to play.” Amb. Matthew Whitaker said Trump could impose new sanctions on Russia, and $2 billion in US weapons would arrive in Ukraine in the coming months. 

"Right now, we have set up a system where the commitments kind of are rolling forward. You know, we have probably another $2 billion or more to bring in the next several months," Whitaker told Bloomberg TV on Tuesday. "And we fully expect that that will be done here very soon. We have a foreign ministers meeting at the beginning of December, which will most likely kind of top that off."

He continued, "And then, as we get into 2026 the key is sustainment. The key is the $12 or $15 billion that are that are needed to buy the critical armaments needed by Ukraine to defend themselves and to continue this fight at the front line is going to be raised. It's going to be US weapons."

The $12 to $15 billion that Whitaker said the West could provide to Ukraine next year is a small fraction of what Kiev says it will need to wage the war.

"The cost of this war as of now is a challenge for us. The price of one year is $120 billion. Sixty billion comes from the Ukrainian budget. And I need to find 60 [billion] for next year," Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky explained in September. (Ukraine is running out of soldiers. Some brigades have only officers and no soldiers.)
