As Todd Blanche stood before the Senate Judiciary Committee for his confirmation hearing, Sen. John Kennedy, R-LA., didn’t flinch when The Gateway Pundit asked him about the crook at the center of one of the most explosive government spying scandals in modern American history. “I don’t know Mr. Smith. I never met him,” Kennedy said. “I’ve just watched him operate. I think he is a political zealot. I think he’s an ideologue. I think he hates Republicans. He exercises power emotionally and immaturely…And I think he ought to have his head in a bag.” Kennedy delivered those words, and more, to The Gateway Pundit and the assembled press gaggle on Wednesday.
The Louisiana senator’s blunt verdict hit like a hammer as fresh documents confirmed what many feared: Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team secretly obtained and reviewed the actual contents of text messages from 44 members of Congress during the Biden administration’s “Artic Frost” investigation. And that was only the latest chapter in a scandal that keeps getting darker. This is the police state Joe Biden and Kamala Harris built, one that treated political opposition as domestic enemies, spied on sitting lawmakers and locked up dissenters while Democrats held unchecked power.
