Charlie Kirks non-profit was one of the groups targeted by the Joe Biden era FBI and the U.S. Attorney’s office, as part of a controversial investigation that used anti-Trump officials to probe Donald Trump and other Republicans, according to Newsmax.

Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, disclosed on Tuesday that Kirk’s Turning Point USA was one of the Republican-linked groups targeted by “Arctic Frost,” the FBI case that started as former prosecutor Jack Smith’s electoral charge against President Donald Trump.

Addressing the Senate Judiciary FBI Oversight Hearing, Grassley offered a prayer for Kirk and lauded the work done by FBI Director Kash Patel. Grassley said how the FBI had become “infected with politics” under the preceding management and then remarked how the case known as Arctic Frost “was much broader than an electoral matter.”

“Arctic Frost was the FBI case opened and approved by anti-Trump FBI agent [Timothy] Thibault. Arctic Frost became Jack Smith’s electorate. These new records show that Arctic Frost was much broader than just an electoral matter. The case was expanded to Republican organizations,” Grassley said.

“Some examples of the groups the [then-Director Christopher] Wray FBI sought to place under political investigation included the Republican National Committee, Republican Attorneys General Association, and Trump political groups. On that political list was one of Charlie Kirk’s groups, Turning Point USA. In other words, Arctic Frost wasn’t just a case to politically investigate Trump,” Grassley said.

Former Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Smith in November of 2022 to investigate Trump over his supposed participation in the Jan. 6 protests on Capitol Hill and the alleged treatment of classified documents. Grassley revealed in January of 2025 that he had obtained communications through FBI whistleblowers that showed “a politically-driven conspiracy among anti-Trump agents and prosecutors in setting up and advancing the Arctic Frost investigation.”

Kirk was killed while he was giving a talk to a crowd at Utah Valley University in Orem last Wednesday. Tyler Robinson, 22, has been accused of the commentator’s murder; Robinson is currently being held without bail in the Utah County Jail.
