A senator from Missouri said that in the wake of revelations that the Biden administration used the FBI to spy on Republican Senators and other conservatives, a deep state of corruption needs to be rooted out.

During an appearance on Fox News Channel’s “Jesse Watters Primetime,” Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) deliberated that a special prosecutor is needed to investigate “Artic Frost,” an operation by Biden’s FBI that allegedly spied on Republicans, according to Breitbart. When the host asked the Senator how they found out about the process, he said it was via whistleblowers.

“I mean, let’s be clear about this. It wasn’t like they said, oh, you know, listen, we want to tell you something really bad that we did. No, they lied about it. They tried to hide it,” Hawley said. “And then, as it turns out, they got wiretaps essentially on eight Republican senators. This is after they targeted 92 conservative organizations, including Charlie Kirk’s TPUSA, just because they were conservatives.” 

Here's what we need a special prosecutor to find out:

– Who approved spying on sitting U.S. senators?
– Who signed off on the Biden FBI's anti-Catholic memo?
– Who was behind the prosecution of Mark Houck?

He added, “All the while, while they were raiding Mar-a-Lago and persecuting Donald Trump, trying to keep him off the ballot.”

Under Biden, the FBI wiretapped the phones of conservatives, listened to calls and may have used the telephone numbers for their own reasons, Hawley said. But for the Senator, one thing is clear: they were trying to destroy the Republican party, starting with Donald Trump.

Watters asked, “Yes, so, what are we going to do about this?” “Well, what needs to happen is we need a special prosecutor who’s going to go at this hard,” Hawley added. “I mean, we need to get all of the corruption uncovered. What we have here is rot that goes all through the FBI, that goes all through the DOJ, as Kash said a second ago in the clip you played, they’ve had decades to assemble this Deep State, we need to disassemble it. We need somebody who is going after every person who was involved in this, who’s going to expose it.”
