The FBI didn’t just investigate Donald Trump.
According to new reporting from John Solomon, it treated him like a national security threat for years - while sweeping up members of Congress, Trump allies, Kash Patel, journalists, and more in a sprawling surveillance dragnet.
On Stinchfield Tonight, Grant Stinchfield breaks down the bombshell allegations that the FBI ran four separate secret operations targeting President Trump and the people around him:
Crossfire Hurricane
Round River
Plasmonic Echo
Arctic Frost
John Solomon joins the show to explain how these investigations allegedly reached far beyond Trump himself and may have violated the civil liberties of hundreds of innocent Americans.
This conversation digs into what the FBI knew, how far the surveillance went, whether John Solomon himself may have been targeted, and whether criminal charges could still be on the table.
If true, this wasn’t law enforcement; it was a political operation.
