Justice Dept. to probe secret subpoena for Schiff's records on Trump's watch


Source: Los Angeles Times

The Justice Department's internal watchdog announced Friday it was launching an investigation into federal prosecutors' use of secret subpoenas to obtain records from Apple concerning two California lawmakers on the House Intelligence Committee, their staff and family members.

The move came as top Democratic senators called on the Justice Department's inspector general to launch such a probe and for former President Trump’s attorneys general to testify before Congress about why prosecutors took such an aggressive investigative step.

The Democrats allege that the subpoenas of records related to Reps. Adam Schiff (D-Burbank), chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, and Eric Swalwell (D-Dublin), were further evidence that the Trump administration engaged in abuses of power when targeting its political foes. The lawmakers targeted by the subpoenas, which were part of an investigation into the leak of classified material, are Democrats known for their vocal criticism of the Trump administration.

“The revelation that the Trump Justice Department secretly subpoenaed metadata of House Intelligence Committee Members and staff and their families, including a minor, is shocking,” according to a statement from Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the chairman of the chamber's Judiciary Committee. "This appalling politicization of the Department of Justice by Donald Trump and his sycophants must be investigated immediately by both the DOJ Inspector General and Congress."

circumstantial.. he would leave the room and the leaking would be out during /as the hearing ended

Then why not make it public, or introduce it into court? Why was trump trying to keep it a secret?

Nunes did make it public -that's the source for Schiff excusing himself during the meetings.
Trump did publicly accuse Schiff of leaking

[Walt]

Barr would simply spit it out

Barr is claiming he was no involved with the wire tapping of opposition to trump, and that trump did it without his knowledge. Not a good sign when everyone is running away from trump's actions.

Schiff/Swalwell does the leaking, then blames Trump DoJ for investigating

You idiots miss the whole point. Barr allowed the terrible criminals Shiff and Swalwell to be tapped. If they found anything at all, they would have announced it during a presidential presser. What the message is, is that Barr broke every damn law and rule we had for AGs and it failed to find anything.
It distills down to Barr and Rosenberg were committing crimes. Obviously not the Dems.
