House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan has launched a blistering new inquiry into the Justice Department’s Inspector General (OIG), demanding answers about the watchdog office’s direct involvement in the Biden DOJ’s highly controversial “Arctic Frost” investigation.
In a letter sent on Wednesday to Acting Inspector General Don Richard Berthiaume, Rep. Jordan reveals disturbing new details: not only did the FBI seize Rep. Scott Perry’s personal cellphone while he was traveling with his family, but the DOJ’s own Inspector General’s Office personally assisted in the phone’s forensic imaging.
The letter reads in part:
“On the morning of August 9, 2022, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents and one agent from the Department of Justice (DOJ) Office of Inspector General (OIG) seized the cell phone of Representative Scott Perry while he was traveling with his family. The seizure was related to a joint investigation conducted by the OIG and the DOJ codenamed Arctic Frost.
[…]
According to reports, the Justice Department OIG used its laboratory in Northern Virginia to assist the FBI in conducting a forensic review of Representative Perry’s phone.
Reports indicate that Representative Perry’s phone “was imaged after the search,” creating a forensic copy of the device’s contents—including communications protected by common-law privileges as well as the Constitution’s Speech or Debate Clause.
The OIG’s assistance in imaging Representative Perry’s phone raises serious concerns about why the OIG would be willing to sacrifice its independence to assist the FBI in advancing such a partisan investigation.”

According to Jordan, recently disclosed internal FBI documents show Arctic Frost investigators quietly collected call logs from nine Members of Congress, including eight Senators, covering January 4–7, 2021.
Even more alarming, Jordan says the Biden-Harris White House helped the FBI obtain government-issued phones once used by President Trump and turncoat Vice President Pence.
US Attorney General Pam Bondi said earlier this month:
During the Arctic Frost Investigation, we found that Special Counsel seized President Trump’s government-issued phone.
This means the Biden Administration turned over President Trump’s phone to Special Counsel—an UNPRECEDENTED action.
In addition, Special Counsel subpoenaed all of President Trump’s PERSONAL phone records.
We can never again allow this kind of government weaponization in America.
I submitted these new documents to our partners on Capitol Hill. I commend our team at the FBI for working diligently to expose this.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley revealed that former Special Counsel Jack Smith targeted the ‘entire Republican apparatus.’
Grassley also released documents revealing that Biden’s Attorney General Merrick Garland, former FBI Director Chris Wray and corrupt DOJ official Lisa Monaco personally approved opening the “Arctic Frost” investigation into President Trump.
Grassley said new disclosures revealed Jack Smith targeted conservative organizations such as TPUSA and the Republican Attorneys General Association.
“I’ve obtained through legally protected whistleblower disclosures,” Grassley said during a press conference on Wednesday. “197 subpoenas were issued by Jack Smith and his team. These subpoenas were issued to 34 individuals and 163 businesses, including financial institutions.”
Last week President Trump called for all of the dirty cops and corrupt prosecutors involved in Arctic Frost and Russiagate to be investigated.
“Former FBI Agent Walter Giardina is a DIRTY COP! He should be, along with Deranged Jack Smith, the sinister team of Lisa Monaco and Andrew Weissmann, Liddle’ Jay Bratt, Norm Eisen and his FAKE Charity, CREW, Christopher Wray, Merrick Garland, Thomas Windom, who dreamt up the corrupt J-6 Witch Hunt, should be investigated, immediately,” Trump said.
“They are a disgrace to our Nation. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” Trump said.
