Federal Grand Jury Seeks Testimony On Security Precautions
The Trump administration has subpoenaed several New York Times journalists to testify before a federal grand jury in Manhattan, following a report on the president’s use of a newly refurbished $400 million Air Force One jet. The report questioned whether the new plane had sufficient security measures, and the administration has responded by issuing subpoenas, which the Times has blasted as anti-free press. The incident is part of a larger trend of the administration seeking to force reporters to talk about their reporting on unwanted leaks, as reported by the New York Post.
