The Biden-era FBI tracked Trump’s family movements and logged his allies’ phone contacts as its classified documents investigation reached deep into his inner circle, newly declassified records show.

Documents released Monday by the White House detail "Plasmic Echo," the probe later led by special counsel Jack Smith. Agents tracked Melania and Barron Trump’s travel while planning the Mar-a-Lago search, then monitored Susie Wiles’ calls involving defense lawyers, campaign advisers and journalists.

The surveillance collected call details rather than conversation contents, according to the documents.

How We See It

New Republican Times Editorial Board

The Biden-era FBI tracked Melania Trump and Barron Trump’s travel while plotting the raid on Mar-a-Lago. Why? They are not intelligence targets. They are a mother and a teenager. This is not law enforcement. This is political warfare. Declassified records confirm what many Americans already suspected. The FBI treated a former president's family like enemy combatants.

Planning a document search requires legal preparation, not surveillance of innocent relatives. Tracking Melania and Barron served one purpose: knowing when the house would be empty for a dramatic television moment. They wanted a photo op, not a lawful operation. Susan Wiles, a private citizen and close Trump advisor, was also swept into this dragnet. The left screams about privacy for their allies, but shows zero respect for conservative families. That double standard is sickening.

This is the pattern of the Biden Justice Department. Use federal power to harass opponents, leak selective details to friendly media, and pretend it’s all routine. Americans are not stupid. They see the weaponization. When the FBI watches a former First Lady’s movements, the rule of law is dead. No family is safe from a politicized FBI.

Thank God for declassification. The American people deserve the full truth, and they deserve prosecutions. Every agent and official who signed off on this surveillance must be held accountable. This is not about partisan revenge. It is about restoring the trust that Washington broke. America First means ending this tyranny. Presidential families should not need bodyguards from their own government. Forgive them nothing. Fix it completely.
