WOW. This is a bombshell,

Trump's DOJ authorized subpeonas to in his words "spy" on democrat members of congress - on the intelligence committee over leaks (proven not to be from the intelligence commitee)

wow, this is a gross abuse of power, jeff sessions belongs in jail and so does trump.

are the right wing idiots on this forum going to condemn this overreach and call it big government?? probably not.

" As the Justice Department investigated who was behind leaks of classified information early in the Trump administration, it took a highly unusual step: Prosecutors subpoenaed Apple for data from the accounts of at least two Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee, aides and family members. One was a minor."

ROFL a MINOR.

This is third world level dictator crap.

Should not be legal.

everything with the trump admin was literally a projection of what he was doing himself.

biden-ukraine - was actualyl rudy and trump-uktraine
biden-china = was actually trump-china
obama-spying = was actually trump spying - on a fucking MINOR LMFAO.

And probably is not legal.

But if you need Trump's shills to vote on whether or not he gets as much as a slap on the wrist, you can't expect much.
The problem in this country is the system itself.

trumpers still quiet on this rofl

Persecuting/prosecuting leakers is not new (Valerie Jarrett, anyone?). Can't read the story though, cuz trash NYT paywall.

these are trump's political enemies. they got the data from a minor. as a liberatiarian i would have thought you would be opposed to this. but its your butt buddy trump so your turn up your justification level to put your head right in his massive asshole.

this is not legal. it should not be legal.

I am opposed to this, but I'm not going to get bent out of whack considering the extensive precedent set by multiple previous administrations.

they were just checking to see if those committee members did indeed fulfill the requirement of being intelligent. understandable.

What's wrong with this?

You well aware you're being spied by Govs agencies/Tech Giants right?
