On September 9, Red State<\/a> posted an article about homes raided and subpoenas issued to dozens of supporters of President Trump. On September 10, Red State<\/a> posted an article with some of the names who were subpoenaed.<\/p>\n

The first article includes a screen shop of one of the subpoenas. The subpoena includes the following:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Why is the Justice Department asking that the subpoena be kept secret?<\/p>\n

The September 10 article notes:<\/p>\n

William Russell wasn\u2019t home when the two FBI agents came to his house Wednesday morning, according to sources familiar with the matter.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Russell served in the Trump White House as a special assistant to the president and the deputy director of advance before moving down to Florida to work as an aide to Trump after he left the White House.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Russell has also been subpoenaed by a federal grand jury investigating Jan. 6, sources familiar with the matter said. The subpoena requests documents and communications related to the so-called fake slates of electors pushed in various states in support of Trump, the sources said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The NY Times is claiming<\/a> they\u2019re aware of a dozen people including Brian Jack, former White House political director under Trump, and a big name, Stephen Miller, Trump\u2019s top speechwriter, and a senior policy adviser, who received subpoenas. Jack is currently both an adviser to Trump as well as to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The subpoenas were issued to a wide range of people who either worked in the White House or on the Trump campaign, including senior officials like the campaign\u2019s chief financial officer; personal aides to Mr. Trump; and the former chief of staff to Ivanka Trump, the president\u2019s daughter who also served as one of his senior advisers. [\u2026.]<\/strong><\/p>\n

Among the recipients of subpoenas from a grand jury sitting in Washington are relatively junior aides from the White House and Mr. Trump\u2019s 2020 campaign. While the subpoenas asked for information concerning the Save America PAC, they also sought communications with several pro-Trump lawyers \u2014 like Kenneth Chesebro \u2014 who helped devise the electors plan.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Numerous subpoenas focused solely on the fake elector plan were sent to Republican state lawmakers and state Republican officials allied with Mr. Trump starting this spring.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We previously reported of subpoenas being dropped<\/a> on Republican Pennsylvania state lawmakers and seizing the phone<\/a> of a member of Congress, Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA).<\/strong><\/p>\n

The NY Times notes<\/a> that Miller was not known to have had a planning role in the electors plan or the fund-raising efforts. So it\u2019s not clear why they are dropping a subpoena on him. Nor is it clear what their legal justification is in regard to the electors plan.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This looks an awful lot like the politicization of the Justice Department. I hope it is not. If it is, I hope the mid-term elections will put enough brave people in Congress who will put a stop to this.<\/p>\n
