Trump Defends DOJ Subpoenas of NY Times Reporters; Google Also Targeted
President Donald Trump defended the Department of Justice's decision to issue subpoenas to New York Times reporters as part of a criminal investigation into leaks about his new Air Force One jet. The same investigation also targeted tech giant Google, which received a subpoena under similar circumstances. The development comes amid ongoing tensions between the administration and media outlets over classified information disclosures. While Trump has consistently criticized what he calls 'fake news,' this move by the DOJ marks an escalation in legal actions against journalists covering sensitive government matters.
