Rod Rosenstein joins Bill Barr and Jeff Sessions in denying ALL knowledge of secret DOJ subpoenas sent to Microsoft and Apple for Congress members' data
2021-06-13
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • The Justice Department sent a secret subpoena to Apple on February 6, 2018 for 73 phone numbers and 36 email addresses

  • Trump and his administration were infuriated after detailed conversations between his aides and the Russian ambassador to the U.S. were leaked

  • The Justice Department began probing the sources of the embarrassing leaks

  • The subpoenas included requests for data from accounts for Democratic Reps. Adam Schiff and Eric Swalwell

  • Jeff Sessions served as Attorney General at the time the administration started probing the leaks, and Rod Rosenstein served as his deputy attorney general

  • Neither Sessions nor Rosenstein knew about the subpoena, a source close to them told the Wall Street Journal on Friday

  • Sessions' successor William Barr ordered the probe continue well into 2020

  • Barr told Politico he also was 'not aware of any congressman's records being sought in a leak case' while he was attorney general

#3  I think all testimony in front of Congress should involve sodium pentothal... and while you're at it, shoot up all the Congress Critters, too. Bet it would male for some interesting dialogue.
