Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley has released newly disclosed FBI documents that detail a ‘preliminary toll analysis’ of nine U.S. senators, including Sen. Josh Hawley, related to a special counsel investigation into former President Donald Trump’s attempt to subvert the 2020 election. The records, which were made public on Monday, only reference the timing and duration of calls made by the lawmakers, not their content. Sen. Hawley falsely claimed during a Tuesday press conference that the FBI had ‘tapped’ the phones of eight senators during the probe, a statement that has not been confirmed by authorities. In her testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Attorney General Pam Bondi did not dispute Hawley’s claim, stating that she had discussed the matter extensively with FBI Director Kash Patel and could not provide further details due to the sensitive nature of the investigation. The exact rationale for the FBI’s review of these particular senators remains unclear, with some, including Hawley, being heavily involved in efforts to challenge the 32 election results, while others were less engaged in such activities.
