The Biden administration's covert Operation Arctic Frost targeted nearly 100 conservative groups and is proof that the National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism and its Strategic Implementation Plan were used to criminalize political dissent. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano exposes new documents from Senator Chuck Grassley that reveal how a group of FBI and DOJ officials launched and expanded this investigation, possibly to intimidate donors and silence opposition. He also confronts the free-speech hypocrisy and how the hunger for power threatens liberty. This is why we must get back to the principles of limited government.

Episode Highlights

• How Operation Arctic Frost began and why Grassley's findings point to a weaponized FBI targeting conservative groups and donors.
• The direct connection between Arctic Frost, the National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism, and Tulsi Gabbard's declassified Strategic Implementation Plan.
• Why many are guilty of free-speech hypocrisy, and why only a return to limited government can preserve liberty.
