I know, we’ve talked about it before, but Trump Derangement Syndrome is a real thing and it’s led ordinarily rational people to do extraordinarily irrational things, including literally breaking laws to try and put President Trump in prison.
Case in point: As Joe Biden’s mind continued to fade into his last days as president, rogue dirtbags in his FBI were quietly laying a trap for Trump that would be sprung the moment he leaves office in January 2029:
In the final weeks of Joe Biden’s presidency, FBI agents tied to Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation memorialized anew their belief that President Donald Trump broke the law in contesting the 2020 election and secretly arranged to preserve their evidence until 2030 in memos that raise alarm they could revive their prosecution after Trump leaves office.
The FBI memos and emails closing out the controversial Arctic Frost investigation – obtained by Just the News – show the bureau chose not to relinquish the evidence it gathered after Smith went to court to dismiss charges against Trump, even though that is the normal practice for agents. Instead, they created a preservation order keeping the evidence in FBI custody for two years after Trump’s second term ends, claiming it was necessary to do so because of ongoing litigation, the memos show.
FBI emails and memos obtained by Just the News dating back to early 2025 show how the FBI agents and DOJ prosecutors who had been working on the criminal prosecutions aimed at Trump and his allies worked to close the 2020 election-related case against the incoming president, while also seemingly leaving open the door for the criminal case to be revived once Trump leaves office and a Democrat again holds the reins at the Justice Department.
“The American people deserve to know how this egregious weaponization of power to target political opponents and President Trump happened inside an institution meant to protect them,” FBI Director Kash Patel told Just the News.
“We shut down the weaponized CR-15 squad, and we are going to keep following the facts until there is full accountability. The FBI exists to protect the country, not to preserve political prosecutions for a future administration.”
Following Trump’s victory over Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election, special counsel Jack Smith moved to dismiss the federal case against Trump “without prejudice,” preserving the possibility that charges could be refiled at a later date.

U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, who was appointed by Barack Obama, cited longstanding guidance from the Office of Legal Counsel stating that a sitting president cannot be prosecuted by the Justice Department and granted Smith’s request.
One of the “case closing” documents later obtained by Just the News reportedly originated from the Federal Bureau of Investigation Washington Field Office’s CR-15 team and was dated Feb. 5, 2025, several weeks into Trump’s second term, when a number of FBI personnel from the prior administration were still serving in their positions.
According to the report, the document repeated allegations previously pursued by Smith and federal investigators and recommended preserving evidence connected to the case through at least February 2030, when Trump would no longer be a sitting president and the Justice Department’s policy barring prosecution of a sitting president would no longer apply.

The document was titled “Arctic Frost – Election Law Matters – Sensitive Investigative Matter” and its synopsis was “To Document the Closing of Captioned Investigation.” The listed enclosures buttressing the document were a “Deputy Special Counsel Concurrence” and the “Retention of Evidence Approval.”
Evidence released last year showed that then-Attorney General Merrick Garland, then-Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, and then-FBI Director Christopher Wray signed off on the launch of the Arctic Frost inquiry into Trump related to the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
Garland also quickly said he “personally approved the decision to seek a search warrant” for the FBI’s unprecedented raid of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in 2022. The Biden White House was also directly linked to the classified documents investigation into Trump, despite its denials, previously-released records show.
After the report broke, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) is pushing the Justice Department to ask federal courts to dismiss with prejudice all prior criminal prosecutions of Trump, ending a decade-long legal assault against the Obama-Biden-era FBI against him.
“It’s probably time that this all just ended,” Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said Wednesday night.
Yeah, that, and so many people need to go to jail over this outrageous abuse of power.
