#threaten — 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.
