  3. Judge rebuffs #Trump admin demand for phone records from #NYT #reporters

    After criticism from a federal judge, the Department of Justice yesterday withdrew demands for phone records and #grandjury testimony from New York Times reporters who wrote about #security concerns related to the #AirForceOne jet donated to Trump by #Qatar.

    It was a setback in the Trump administration's attempts to unmask journalists' confidential sources. US District Judge Arun Subramanian "grilled Justice Department lawyers for nearly an hour over their handling of the #subpoenas " during a hearing on Thursday, The New York Times wrote.

  6. #Trump has long been a harsh critic of the #news #media. But in his second term in office, he has moved aggressively to use the immense powers of the federal government in his efforts to attack the #press.

    Earlier this year, the #DOJ sought to compel testimony from #journalists at The Wall Street Journal & The Washington Post. The DOJ withdrew the #subpoenas after both news organizations fought back in sealed filings.

  10. The #subpoenas contain few specifics, asking only that the #journalists testify “in regard to an alleged violation of federal criminal law.” They were issued by #JayClayton, the #USattorney in Manhattan. Clayton, who leads one of the country’s most prominent law enforcement offices, was recently nominated by #Trump to serve as director of national intelligence [ #DNI ].

  12. In some cases, the #subpoenas were delivered by federal agents who showed up at #reporters’ homes.

    The #NYT denounced the admin’s actions.

    “The appearance of federal law enforcement agents on the doorstep of news reporters should shock the conscience of any American who believes in the #Constitution & the #PressFreedom it protects,” said David McCraw, The NYT’s top newsroom lawyer, in a statement Friday evening.

  14. The #Trump admin issued #subpoenas Friday to several journalists for #TheNewYorkTimes, after the news outlet reported this week on #security concerns involving #Trump’s new #Qatar donated #AirForceOne.

    The subpoenas — which seek to force the #reporters to testify before a federal grand jury in Manhattan on Wednesday — were an extraordinary escalation in Trump’s efforts to #threaten & #intimidate independent news organizations.

    In several cases in recent months, #HomelandSecurity has relied on the use of administrative subpoenas to seek identifiable information about individuals who run anonymous Instagram accounts, which share posts about ICE immigration raids in their local neighborhoods. These #subpoenas have also been used to demand information about people who have criticized Trump officials or protested policies.

  32. While the #subpoenas did not cite a specific criminal statute [there isn’t one that applies] that #DOJ was “investigating”, the inquiry is purportedly said to focus on whether elected officials in #Minnesota had conspired to impede the thousands of federal agents who have been in the state since last month looking for undocumented immigrants [big wink].

  34. The #subpoenas, which were formally served on the ofcls’ offices, are a significant expansion of the “inquiry” into #Minnesota leaders…. The “investigation” was initially said to have focused on #JacobFrey & #TimWalz, who have both criticized the crackdown. But it now appears that prosecutors will also scrutinize other public officials, including Ellison & Moriarty, who could open their own inquiries into the fatal #shooting in #Minneapolis this month of #ReneeGood by an #ICE agent.

  36. The #subpoenas suggest the #DOJ is examining whether #TimWalz’s & #JacobFrey’s public statements disparaging the surge of officers & federal actions amount to #criminal interference in law enforcement work. The #law under which they are claiming to be investigating the two elected leaders is a federal statute on #conspiracy to impede a federal investigation similar to the charges filed against #protesters whom federal ofcls allege attempted to block #immigration officers as they do their work.

  37. 🚨🚨🚨🚨

    The #DOJ has issued #subpoenas for #Minnesota Gov #TimWalz & #Minneapolis Mayor #JacobFrey as part of a criminal investigation supposedly into impeding law enforcement.

    The subpoenas, which are without recent precedent, escalate an already bitter political battle between the #Trump admin & state officials following the fatal #shooting of #ReneeGood by an #immigration officer last week.
