WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other top Democrats called for an investigation on Thursday after The New York Times reported that the Justice Department under President Donald Trump seized the communications data of members of the House Intelligence Committee.

“The news about the politicization of the Trump Administration Justice Department is harrowing,” Pelosi, D-Calif., said in a statement. “These actions appear to be yet another egregious assault on our democracy waged by the former president.”

The Times reported Thursday that the DOJ subpoenaed Apple for data from at least two committee members, as well as aides and family members, in 2017 and 2018. The Times report anonymously cited committee officials and two other people briefed on the inquiry.

Among those whose records were seized was California Rep. Adam Schiff, then the top Democrat on the committee.

“the Justice Department under President Donald Trump seized the communications data of members of the House Intelligence Committee.”

You mean, records of whom they called and who called them, and when and for how long? Molehill.

Internal numbers for Trump 2024 must be great. They're kicking off the scandals super early this time.

Stay close to your desks, and never go to sea,
and soon you’ll get to head your own bureaucracy.

Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. The Clintons never used those files to prosecute anyone, just to blackmail a few Republican notables into submission. No harm, no foul. You gotta make them be bi-partisan somehow.

I know that this is hurl-inducing but for educational purposes only, this is Lemon interviewing Swalwell last night about this subject....

<> I figured the media was going to have to change the narrative to take the attention away from the total incompetence of the two buffoons pretending to be POTUS and the VP.<>

WE HAVE A WINNER!

First, the news out of the Obiden admin is all bad. The two clowns at the top are destroying America.

Second, CNN’s ratings are in the septic tank. Nothing animates ignorant Leftists like hit pieces on President Trump.

The rat media thought they could ride a congressional investigation of Jan 6 all the way to the midterms. Alas, that will not happen.

Viola’ and fabricate another hoax led by the worm Schiff to focus on while they once again ignore real news.
