Former Special Counsel Jack Smith was allegedly tracking the private communications and phone calls of nearly a dozen Republican Senators as part of his investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riots, Fox News Digital has learned.
A document, reviewed by Fox News Digital, revealed that Smith and his "Arctic Frost" team investigating Jan. 6 were allegedly tracking the phone calls of GOP Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Josh Hawley of Missouri, Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming, Bill Hagerty of Tennessee, Dan Sullivan of Alaska, Tommy Tuberville of Alabama and GOP Rep. Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania.
The document, recently discovered by FBI Director Kash Patel and exclusively obtained by Fox News Digital, is titled "CAST Assistance" and dated Sept. 27, 2023. "CAST" refers to the FBI’s cellular analysis survey team.
The document, which has the names of FBI agents involved redacted, marks the case ID as "ARCTIC FROST—Election Law Matters—SENSITIVE INVESTIGATIVE MATTER—CAST."
The document states the names of the lawmakers and that an FBI special agent on Smith’s team "conducted preliminary toll analysis" on the toll records associated with the lawmakers.

Jack Smith tracked private communications, calls of nearly a dozen GOP senators
Re: Jack Smith tracked private communications, calls of nearly a dozen GOP senators
Phone metadata or toll records, which require a grand jury subpoena or other legal authority to acquire and reveal who called/texted who and when and from where, being pulled on Senators and Representatives by Special Counsel Smith’s team isn’t new news…
But it makes good material for performative REEEEEactions in a hearing with the AG, so here we are.
Special Counsel Smith told everyone about this investigative step in case filings and in his report.
TLDR: If you talked to Rudy or any other co-conspirator from Smith's election interference indictment on or around Jan 6, 2021, then he got your phone metadata.

Sen. John Kenddey DEMANDS a separate hearing regarding JACK SMITH spying on U.S. Senators.
KENNEDY: "If the eight senators who were spied upon sue the hell out of the Department of Justice and the perpetrators involved, will that facilitate their investigation and or yours?"
KENNEDY: "I guess what I'm getting to is I don't understand why we don't have a separate hearing. I find this breathtaking. Yeah."
GRASSLEY: "It's just been 24 hours since the FBI investigated it. Please give me an opportunity to sort through all this."
KENNEDY: "Fair enough. I just don't want to wait 24 years to get an answer."

Re: Jack Smith tracked private communications, calls of nearly a dozen GOP senators
House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan has formally referred former special counsel Jack Smith to the DOJ for possible criminal prosecution, accusing him of misleading Congress about how his team accessed lawmakers' text messages.
Jordan's letter to acting AG Todd Blanche says Smith's December deposition answers "gave the impression" his team never touched the content of members' messages. New records show that's not the full picture, 44 lawmakers from both parties had their communications swept up through a separate National Archives production.

KEY SECTION @JudiciaryGOP (https://x.com/JudiciaryGOP) Criminal Referral Jack Smith
"...strong evidence that appears to show Jack Smith...knowingly made false statements.. (about obtaining the content of 44 lawmakers text messages)"
Question: Okay, it was just toll records?
Smith Answer: Correct
Toll records contain metadata (numbers called, date, time, length of call) but NOT content.
Smith was silent on his work around through the National Archives and apparent bypassing his filter team to review the texts.
