<\/p>\nFBI Director Kash Patel announced Friday that the bureau has arrested several individuals in connection with an alleged terror plot in Michigan that authorities believe was planned for this weekend.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis morning the FBI thwarted a potential terrorist attack and arrested multiple subjects in Michigan who were allegedly plotting a violent attack over Halloween weekend. More details to come. Thanks to the men and women of FBI and law enforcement everywhere standing guard 24\/7 and crushing our mission to defend the homeland,\u201d Patel posted on X.<\/p>\n
According to the New York Post, FBI Detroit spokesman Jordan Hall confirmed \u201cmembers from the FBI in Michigan were present in the cities of Dearborn and Inkster this morning conducting law enforcement activities.\u201d<\/p>\n
A senior public official told The Post that the Dearborn Police Department had been informed the FBI planned to raid three homes in the area. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said Michigan Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer was not notified in advance about the law enforcement operation.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen Patel posted, nobody had been briefed. So now everybody\u2019s slowly getting the information,\u201d the official told The Post.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the FBI memo that initiated the Biden-era Arctic Frost investigation into President Donald Trump and hundreds of his allies over their activities related to January 6 lacked substantial evidence and clear legal justification, according to several former prosecutors and FBI agents who reviewed the newly released document and identified multiple deficiencies.<\/p>\n
The investigation, code-named Arctic Frost, was initially led by an FBI supervisor who had expressed anti-Trump sentiments and was later taken over by Special Counsel Jack Smith.<\/p>\n
The probe treated the effort by Trump\u2019s allies to submit alternate electors to Congress during the 2020 election certification as a potential criminal conspiracy \u2014 despite similar actions in two prior instances of U.S. history not resulting in prosecution, Just the News reported.<\/p>\n
According to the newly released materials, the FBI memo that launched the investigation in spring 2022 \u2014 around the same time Trump announced his bid for the presidency \u2014 relied heavily on interview clips from CNN as primary evidence \u201csuggesting\u201d Trump\u2019s involvement in the alleged conspiracy, the outlet added.<\/p>\n
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan said Wednesday that he believes the FBI memo authorizing the Arctic Frost investigation was legally flawed and reflected the same politicization and investigative overreach seen in the 2016 Russia collusion probe, code-named \u201cCrossfire Hurricane.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jordan obtained the document from current FBI Director Kash Patel and told Just the News that both investigations targeted Trump based on weak evidence and partisan motives before ultimately being discredited.<\/p>\n
\u201cSure looks that way. \u2026 and it looks like this was just the same old weaponization, same old political focus, focus on politics, going after your political enemies,\u201d Jordan said during a wide-ranging interview on the Just the News, No Noise TV show.<\/p>\n
\u201cSame mindset that said we\u2019re going to put the dossier in the intelligence community assessment, even though we know the dossier is garbage, we know there\u2019s no underlying intelligence support,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat same mindset that was there in 2016 is the mindset we see now in 2022 with Arctic Frost, and then as it transformed into Jack Smith, special counsel, later in 2022\u2014same mindset. So yeah, that\u2019s what it sure looks like,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Documents released in recent weeks by Patel indicate that the Arctic Frost investigation was approved at the highest levels of the Biden administration, including by Attorney General Merrick Garland, Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, and FBI Director Christopher Wray, with assistance from a lawyer in the White House.<\/p>\n
The inquiry centered on efforts by Republican officials in several states to submit alternate slates of electors ahead of Congress\u2019s certification of the 2020 presidential election on January 6, 2021.<\/p>\n
The probe was later transferred from the FBI to Smith\u2019s office, which issued subpoenas to hundreds of Trump allies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
