‘This is actually real’: Forget impeachment, ARREST Judge Boasberg, Jack Smith for spying on Congress

November 3, 2025 | | Print Article

Revelations regarding lawfare during the Biden administration prompted one former State Department official to draw a comparison to President Donald Trump, as he called for some high-profile arrests.

“This is actually real.”

In recent days, details regarding the FBI’s Operation Arctic Frost have accused the likes of former Attorney General Merrick Garland, former FBI Director Christoper Wray, and former Special Counsel Jack Smith of spying on select members of Congress. Now, with an eye toward the charges that have been brought against Trump, Foundation For Freedom Online Executive Director Mike Benz called for the arrest of U.S. District Judge James Boasberg as the workweek begins.

“On Monday morning, arrest Judge Boasberg for spying on Congress and hiding the spying from Congress, and arrest Jack Smith as his co-conspirator,” Benz posted to X, captioning a list of suggested charges to be brought against the Obama-appointed jurist. “All these charges were brought against Trumpworld figures under the Biden DOJ. Their were bullsh*t. This is actually real.”

The list includes Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law, Obstruction of Proceeding Before Congress, and Conspiracy Against Rights.

Each of the alleged offenses was accompanied by an explanation, as the first pointed to the Boasberg-approved subpoenas Smith used to obtain phone records of elected officials, such as Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R), details that were then withheld from those being surveilled.

The second charge claimed “the gag order obstructed the Senate’s ability to exercise its oversight functions,” while the third contended “Judge Boasberg conspired with Special Counsel Smith’s office to infringe upon the senator’s rights, using his judicial authority to conceal the subpoenas and evade Senate opposition.”

South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham (R) has also spoken out about his phone records being reviewed, while prohibiting him from being made aware of it. The Federalist co-founder and CEO Sean Davis highlighted, “It is a violation of federal law (2 U.S.C. 6628) to prevent data carriers from informing the Senate of the collection of its data. Boasberg wrote an illegal order to ban the Senate from being informed, because that same law REQUIRES federal courts to quash the data collection upon a motion by the U.S. Senate to do so.”

To that end, Julie Kelly suggested tacking on charges of making false statements for claiming the sitting legislators would have destroyed or tampered with evidence or endeavored to intimidate witnesses had they been aware of the subpoenas.

Meanwhile, the House Judiciary Committee brought receipts last week showing that Smith had been working in coordination with the sham Jan. 6 committee, providing “transcripts, documents, and text messages, all to take down President Trump and his associates,” while also alleging that Arctic Frost left scores of individuals in the president’s orbit “potentially under investigation.”

Reactions to Benz’s summation of a means to bring accountability were mixed, with support for the tactic alongside healthy doses of skepticism that justice would actually be served.

“This is the way: conspiracy to violate federal civil rights. It’s the crime that unites all the lawfare complicit parties,” wrote attorney Robert Barnes, while retired FBI agent Steve Barnes insisted in part, “This looks like a shadow government, at least in regards to the powers that should have been wielded by DOJ and the Judicial Branch, outside all norms.”

Despite that, some remained doubtful, “This should happen but it won’t! Unfortunately!”
