Two stories from two countries with no direct operation, institutional, or causal connection couldn’t be more intertwined.

The U.K. is in the midst of rolling out its proposed mandatory digital ID scheme. At the same time, U.S. Deputy Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Dan Bongino briefed nine Republican members of Congress that former President Joe Biden’s FBI allegedly targeted them with surveillance measures during the Jan. 6 investigations, led by Special Counsel Jack Smith, Fox Digital reported.

Eight U.S. Senators and one U.S. House member, all vocal supporters of President Donald Trump, were allegedly targeted during the FBI’s Jan. 6 probe, which included the acquisition of their cell phone metadata from service providers. This metadata reportedly included call logs and the location of the calls.

The Biden FBI spied on Republicans who support @realDonaldTrump.

This was the weaponization of one of our nation’s top intelligence agencies, and those responsible must be held to account.
