The Biden administration spent two years insisting it had nothing to do with prosecuting Donald Trump in Georgia.
Senate investigators just found the emails that prove otherwise.
Now Chuck Grassley’s committee found exactly what Trump told you was happening all along.
Senate Investigators Found Biden DOJ Emails Showing Who Was Tracking the Willis Case
In late August 2023, Biden White House associate counsel Beth Mueller sent an internal email flagging that Jim Jordan had written a letter to Fani Willis questioning her sham Trump case.
Not expressing concern.
Not asking whether the White House should stay out of a state criminal prosecution of the sitting president's chief political opponent.
Flagging it — so the right people inside Biden's West Wing could track what Congress was doing to protect their operation.
Days later, senior legislative affairs adviser Rachel Martinez read Willis's defiant response to Jordan and couldn't contain herself.
"Fani Willis is an ICON – I can't help but to stan," Martinez wrote to her Biden White House colleagues.
These aren't anonymous leaks.
These are internal White House emails obtained by Senate investigators, sent by named government officials on official government systems, while Biden's Justice Department was simultaneously pursuing the same witch hunt through Special Counsel Jack Smith on a parallel federal track.
Chuck Grassley, Ron Johnson, and Eric Schmitt released these documents at a Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing titled "Arctic Frost: Conspiracy and Coordination Against President Trump and the American Right."
The 2 Million Dollar Grant the Biden DOJ Gave Willis That No One Else Could Apply For
The emails are one piece of a picture that gets uglier the more you look at it.
Willis's internal memos, obtained through a Georgia open records lawsuit, showed her office worked hand-in-glove with Biden's Justice Department, the White House, and House January 6 Committee Democrats to build her case against Trump.
Biden's White House counsel cleared the way for Willis's team to interview former Trump administration officials by waiving executive privilege — access she never could have obtained on her own.
While the investigation was accelerating, Biden's Justice Department invited Willis to apply for a $2 million sole-source grant, meaning no other prosecutor's office in America was allowed to compete for it.
Her office collected more than $18 million in total federal funding during her tenure.
Special prosecutor Nathan Wade billed Fulton County for an "interview with DC/White House" in November 2022.
When investigators asked what was discussed, the county said Wade kept no records of what occurred.
The House January 6 Committee handed Willis's office oral summaries of witness testimony and access to documents in Washington.
Grassley has been investigating whether Biden's DOJ used Willis to pursue angles against Trump that federal prosecutors weren't allowed to pursue themselves — engineering double jeopardy through state charges, using the legal loophole that lets state and federal governments prosecute the same conduct independently.
Biden's operation ran through the FBI, the DOJ, a special counsel, a local district attorney, a congressional committee, and tens of millions in federal grant money — all aimed at the same man.
Arctic Frost Targeted 430 Republicans and the Biden White House Helped Run It
Grassley's Arctic Frost investigation is the broadest exposure of Biden-era weaponization yet assembled.
Arctic Frost was the FBI's internal codename for the operation that became the foundation for Jack Smith's election case against Trump.
197 subpoenas seeking records were issued on more than 430 Republican individuals and entities.
Eight Republican senators had their phone records pulled by Biden's FBI without their knowledge.
Ninety-two conservative groups ended up in the crosshairs — Charlie Kirk's Turning Point USA, the Republican National Committee, and dozens of others.
Biden White House deputy counsel Jonathan Su personally assisted the FBI in securing the government phones of Trump and Vice President Pence before Trump was even formally added as a subject.
"Thanks to whistleblowers who sounded the alarm to me about Arctic Frost's existence, this shocking political scandal is seeing the light of day," Grassley said.
A Republican senator called the hearing "only the beginning" of a broader accountability effort and described the scope as worse than Watergate.
They Were So Sure They'd Never Get Caught
The Willis prosecution is dead — dismissed in its entirety by Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee in November.
Georgia's Court of Appeals ruled she couldn't keep pursuing it.
The Georgia Supreme Court declined to save her.
Trump said what needed to be said when McAfee dropped it: "LAW and JUSTICE have prevailed in the Great State of Georgia."
Trump also said from day one that Biden was behind the Georgia prosecution.
CNN called it a conspiracy theory.
MSNBC said it was the desperate deflection of a man trying to avoid accountability.
Democrats lined up to call it paranoid, absurd, and dangerous.
Rachel Martinez's email was sitting on a government server the whole time.
Grassley has all of it now.
And today is just the beginning.
