The special counsel investigation into Donald Trump secured a search warrant of the former president’s Twitter account, @realDonaldTrump, according to a newly unsealed court filing.
The search was so secret that Twitter was barred from telling Trump the search warrant had been obtained for his account, and Twitter was fined $350,000 because it delayed producing the records sought under the search warrant.
Twitter and special counsel Jack Smith’s office spent several months litigating the question of whether Trump should be told about the search warrant.

Yup.
Obviously they were going after the private messages. I forget what they are called on Twitter.
This one I might try myself:
"For a good time, call Jenny, 867-5309."
People seem to be missing that if the Special Counsel has access to Trump’s twitter account,
HE ALSO HAS ACCESS TO HIS INBOX AND DMs.
Major cracks in the USS Republic. I’m not sure she can hold it captain.......were breaking up.....
When the left gets power they actually use it.
Who is leaking this, and why ?
Another diversion attempt for the release of more Biden wire transfers (now $20M) by The Over Site Committee.
“Twitter was barred from telling Trump the search warrant had been obtained for his account”
“Jack Smith’s office spent several months litigating the question of whether Trump should be told about the search warrant”
What was the point? Trump knows he has been under illegal, unconstitutional surveillance since his first campaign. Do these idiots really think that Trump would just decided to believe they stopped surveilling him?
Looking for private messages no doubt.
It’s not illegal for them to collect publicly available information, like what you post to social media. Nor is any warrant needed for that. This can only be about them wanting to acquire his private messages on the platform.
Insane.
I believe they’re called “DMs” = direct messages.
“Obviously they were going after the private messages. I forget what they are called on Twitter.”
Yep.
Now we are Pakistan. Aspiring to Venezuela.
Everything Trump posted was announced, discussed and condemned. There are no secrets there.
How about getting biden’s phone records?
Trump had, like, millons of followers, but his feed was unreadable…just one huge scroll of bots and attacks. Don’t even know how many were real people.
I got banned from twit like many other bona fide followers, after the purge.
“Oh they’ve got him now, all those mean Tweets will do him in.”
Yes, Trump is notorious for NOT using texts and emails, so I’m sure he was putting all of his dirty laundry in Twitter.
BTTT
Except for FISA warrants and the like. And FISA was celebrated by many here 20 years ago and CV ondemned by thexLeft in every episode of Law& Order. Joe Mantegna and Don Ameche had it right; THINGS CHANGE.
