Justice Department subpoenas four New York Times reporters

3 min read

The Justice Department served subpoenas on four New York Times reporters after their article said security flaws in the new Air Force One forced President Trump to switch planes after the NATO summit in Turkey. The subpoenas, signed out of the Southern District of New York by U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton, were in some cases delivered at reporters' homes by federal agents and cite an alleged violation of federal criminal law. The Times called the move brazen and the reporters are scheduled to appear before a Manhattan grand jury, prompting criticism about government limits on national security reporting.
