**Biden's Justice Department Caught Overstepping with Congressional Subpoenas**
In yet another troubling revelation about the Biden administration’s tactics, special counsel Jack Smith’s team appears to have pursued unauthorized access to the phone records of Republican lawmakers, disregarding both constitutional protections and the dire consequences of such actions.
Internal emails made public by Senators Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson highlight how Smith’s office was forewarned of potential litigation risks as it moved forward with subpoenas targeting GOP members of Congress.
The subpoenas, part of Smith’s investigation into the questioning of the legitimacy of the 2020 election, sought extensive details — including call logs, text messages, and voicemails — from nearly a dozen Republican lawmakers during a critical period.
It’s astonishing that these subpoenas were issued despite a clear understanding of their questionable legality. The Speech or Debate Clause of the Constitution is designed to protect the legislative processes of Congress, and seeking legislative communications raises serious doubts about the integrity of the Biden administration's Justice Department.
Senator Grassley pointed out that Smith and his team seem to operate under a brazen disregard for constitutional norms. Grassley’s statement raises critical concerns about the politically charged climate wherein the president’s own lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, had already been subjected to subpoenas, further justifying Republican fears of targeted harassment by a weaponized justice system.
Smith’s actions stand in stark contrast to the governance principles that conservatives hold dear, where transparency and accountability should be paramount. Rather, it appears that this Biden-era investigation is more about political theater than about justice.
Adding fuel to the fire, the Senate recently passed a provision allowing lawmakers affected by these unlawful searches to sue for damages, highlighting the bipartisan concern surrounding Smith’s overreach.
This revelation aligns with a broader narrative about the Biden administration's willingness to use government apparatus against political opponents, reinforcing the notion that the current administration treats dissent with hostility rather than respect.
As the investigations unfold, Republicans must remain vigilant against overreach that threatens the integrity of legislative processes. The American people deserve a Justice Department that serves justice, not a partisan agenda.
