"Let’s see what judge issued the warrant."

We won't. It is a secret court. We would need leakers like the Dems always seem to have.

No warrant or secret court. Just a mundane subpoena, one of hundreds, issued by Dems. One problem in this case is no oversight. Schiff, and probably any of his staffers could issue subpoenas without going through the committee. The root of the problem is Nadler who allowed this to happen. There were amendments to 660 all rejected by Nadler which would have protected due process and prevented the worst of the abuses.

Obviously a prosecutor cannot subpoena the calls of the attorney to the defendant (Giuliani), but that's what he did, violating the sixth amendment. Obviously a prosecutor cannot also be the judge deciding what evidence can be suppressed. But that's what Schiff is doing. Obviously defendants are allowed to subpoena docments and testimony subject to a judge's approval. Schiff cannot be both proescutor and judge and in fact Republicans were given no opportunities to subpoena records.

Some important records we have not seen are the meetings and calls between Schiff and/or staffers and the whistleblower before the whistleblower lied on the paperwork (he was supposed to disclose those meetings).

Didn’t someone say on FOX that was a mere matter of asking AT&T to produce the records and it was done? Nothing was said about a warrant that I heard...
