    Default Justice official resigning amid uproar over Dems’ subpoenas

    WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department’s top national security official is resigning from his position after revelations that the department secretly seized records from Democrats and members of the media.

    John Demers will leave his position by the end of next week, a Justice Department official told The Associated Press on Monday. The official could not discuss the matter publicly and spoke to the AP on the condition of anonymity.

    The subpoena, issued Feb. 6, 2018, requested information on 73 phone numbers and 36 email addresses, Apple said. It also included a non-disclosure order that prohibited the company from notifying any of the people and was renewed three times, the company said in a statement.

    Demers has been in charge of the department’s national security division since February 2018, being sworn in a few weeks after the subpoena was issued to Apple for the Democrats’ records, and his division has played a role in each of the leak investigations.

    Default In Congress, Republicans Shrug at Warnings of Democracy in Peril

    WASHINGTON — Senator Christopher S. Murphy concedes that political rhetoric in the nation’s capital can sometimes stray into hysteria, but when it comes to the precarious state of American democracy, he insisted he was not exaggerating the nation’s tilt toward authoritarianism.

    “Democrats are always at risk of being hyperbolic,” said Mr. Murphy, Democrat of Connecticut. “I don’t think there’s a risk when it comes to the current state of democratic norms.”

    WHat is embarrassing for Donald Trump and his Rogue AGENTS IN THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT, is they had all of the telephone conversations and email conversations of the two Democrat Congressmen- BUT COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING THEY COULD USE TO HANG THEM ON LEAKING CHARGES- BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T LEAK ANYTHING!

    SO all TRUMP and his ROGUE AGENTS did was expose their own illegal and criminal activities.
