#subpoenas — Public Fediverse posts

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.

Victory! #NinthCircuit Limits Intrusive #DMCA #Subpoenas

The 9th Circuit upheld an important limitation on Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DMCA) subpoenas that other federal courts have recognized for more than 2 decades. The DMCA, a misguided anti-piracy law passed in the late 90’s, created a bevy of powerful tools, ostensibly to help #copyright holders fight online #infringement. Unfortunately, the DMCA’s powerful protections are ripe for abuse by “copyright trolls”

In addition to the #Clintons, the Republican-led panel issued #subpoenas for #depositions from James Comey, Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, Merrick Garland, Robert Mueller, William Barr, Jeff Sessions & Alberto Gonzales [all perceived enemies of #Trump]. #Republicans on the cmte said they are seeking information from these officials regarding the #JeffreyEpstein files.

#law #hypocrisy

#House #Oversight Cmte Chair #JamesComer issued numerous #subpoenas on Tues -- including one to the #DOJ for the COMPLETE #JeffreyEpstein files & another for #depositions w/ President #BillClinton & fmr Secy of #State #HillaryClinton.

Comer said he wants the DOJ to turn over the "full, complete, unredacted Epstein Files" on or before Aug. 19.

[note they’re subpoenaing #Democrats, glaringly absent—of course—is #Trump despite him hosting Epstein parties]
