Suspected Congressional Leakers Were Secretly Being Investigated by the DOJ All Along
epoch times ^ | 6/22/2021 | BRIAN CATES

Two prominent Democrat politicians who sit on the House Intelligence Committee have alerted the news media that they were informed by the Apple corporation back on May 5 that their phone records had been targeted by a subpoena issued by a grand jury as part of a federal investigation into criminal leaking of classified material.

Apple said in a released statement that a non-disclosure order from a federal judge prevented them for more than three years from alerting any of the affected phone and email accounts that their records had been accessed by the federal grand jury.

Both Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) stated in media interviews how shocked they were to discover that that federal prosecutors would even think of allowing a grand jury to subpoena their private phone data. Both men professed outrage at the invasion of their privacy, and congressional Democrats are now angrily calling for former Attorney Generals Jeff Sessions and William Barr to be brought in to answer questions, along with former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

The validity of both the subpoenas and the evidence upon which they were based are loudly being called into question, something that has already led to Department of Justice (DOJ) Inspector General Michael Horowitz to review the matter, to ensure that all proper steps and regulations were followed while these congressmen, their staff, several family members, and media reporters were spied on by this federal grand jury.

Schiff and Swallwell being angry looks so much like the shrieking of an offended prostitute.

It is OBSCENE that anyone would do to them what they did to Trump!

Serious intel leaks were being investigated (albeit mostly lies, but still...) and you will recall AG Jeff Sessions used the Canary trap to catch a Senate Intel Committee staffer.

Of course Dems have the right to leak intel secrets; that is why they bed down with Chinese spies. Still, I suspect the AG's will be able to give an accounting for their actions.

Oh, goody! Another side show!

...allowing a grand jury to subpoena their private phone data.

How are any of those men responsible for that which the grand jury itself is responsible?

I sure would like to know what the grand jury found.
