The Fulton County, GA, district attorney who brought charges against Donald Trump has been subpoenaed by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan.

Jordan is demanding that Willis supply office documents following claims that the district attorney fired a whistleblower, NBC News reports.

Jordan is demanding that Willis supply office documents following claims that the district attorney fired a whistleblower, NBC News reports.

That whistleblower allegedly attempted to stop the misuse of federal funds by a top campaign aide.

The subpoena is part of a larger probe by Jordan and House GOP members seeking to determine whether federal funds were used for her over two-year investigation into Trump.

Last year, Trump was charged with attempting to overturn 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.

He has pleaded not guilty.

According to Jordan, Willis has ignored two requests for the documents “referring or relating to the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office’s receipt and use of federal funds.”.

According to Jordan, Willis has ignored two requests for the documents “referring or relating to the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office’s receipt and use of federal funds.”.

Instead of using these federal grant funds for the intended purpose of helping at-risk youths, your office sought to use the grant funds to ‘get Macbooks ... swag ... [and] use it for travel, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, via NBC News.

Moreover, the whistleblower’s direct supervisor stated that these planned expenditures ‘were part of [your] vision.’, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, via NBC News.

These allegations raise serious concerns about whether you were appropriately supervising the expenditure of federal grant funding allocated to your office and whether you took actions to conceal your office’s unlawful use of federal funds, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, via NBC News.

Last year, Willis' office wrote Jordan a letter, saying there is “no justification in the Constitution for Congress to interfere with a state criminal matter.”.

Any examination of the records of our grant programs will find that they are highly effective and conducted in cooperation with the Department of Justice and in compliance with all Department of Justice requirements, Fani Willis, via NBC News

Ike Riffel, who lost his sons, Melvin and Bennet, in the Ethiopia crash, fears that Boeing will be offered a deferred prosecution agreement (DPA) or be allowed to skip trial. In 2021, the DOJ charged Boeing with fraud for misleading regulators regarding the 737 MAX. However, prosecutors went on to accept an agreement that could see felony charges against Boeing dropped in three years. 'Newsweek' reports that the DOJ reopened the possibility of prosecuting Boeing in May, claiming the company breached the original 2021 deal. Now, the DOJ has until July 7 to determine whether it will file charges against Boeing. Families of those who died in the two Boeing crashes have pushed for high-ranking Boeing officials to be prosecuted and the company to be fined $24 billion.

Julian Assange Reaches Plea Deal With US Government

Julian Assange , Reaches Plea Deal With , US Government. 'The Independent' reports that Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has been released from Belmarsh prison as part of a plea deal with the United States Justice Department. Assange will be flown out of the U.K. as part of the deal before he makes a guilty plea deal that could end the years-long legal battle. On June 24, Assange boarded a flight at Stansted airport ahead of a scheduled appearance later this week in the Mariana Islands, a Western Pacific U.S. commonwealth. The U.S. government has charged the Wikileaks founder with conspiracy to obtain and disclose national defense secrets. The charges stem from one of the largest leaks of classified information in U.S. history, disclosing tens of thousands of reports regarding the war in Afghanistan. The disclosure, which occurred between 2009 and 2011, included unfiltered diplomatic cables that potentially endangered the safety of confidential sources. . The leak also included significant activity reports related to the war in Iraq and information regarding Guantanamo Bay. According to the latest DOJ filing, Assange is expected to plead guilty and be sentenced to 62 months of time already served, thus avoiding U.S. imprisonment. . This is the result of a global campaign that spanned grass-roots organizers, press freedom campaigners, legislators and leaders from across the political spectrum, all the way to the United Nations, Wikileaks statement, via X. After more than five years in a 2x3 metre cell, isolated 23 hours a day, he will soon reunite with his wife Stella Assange, and their children, who have only known their father from behind bars, Wikileaks statement, via X

DOJ Files Lawsuit Against Adobe [Video]

DOJ Files Lawsuit Against Adobe

DOJ Files Lawsuit , Against Adobe. The U.S. Justice Department filed a lawsuit against Adobe on June 17, TechCrunch reports. The DOJ alleges that Adobe is deceptive because it conceals early-termination fees and makes it difficult for customers to cancel subscriptions. Adobe has harmed consumers by enrolling them in its default, most lucrative subscription plan without clearly disclosing important plan terms, DOJ, via lawsuit. The DOJ claims that Adobe pushes subscribers to choose its "annual paid monthly" plan and uses costly early-termination fees as a "powerful retention tool" to trap customers. During enrollment, Adobe hides material terms of its APM plan in fine print and behind option textboxes and hyperlinks, proving disclosures that are designed to go unnoticed and that most consumers never see, DOJ, via lawsuit. Adobe then deters cancellations by employing an onerous and complicated cancellation process, DOJ, via lawsuit. Adobe disagrees with the allegations. Subscription services are convenient, flexible and cost effective to allow users to choose the plan that best fits their needs, timeline and budget, Dana Rao, Adobe’s General Counsel and Chief Trust Officer, via statement. Our priority is to always ensure our customers have a positive experience. , Dana Rao, Adobe’s General Counsel and Chief Trust Officer, via statement. We are transparent with the terms and conditions of our subscription agreements and have a simple cancellation process, Dana Rao, Adobe’s General Counsel and Chief Trust Officer, via statement. The U.S. government maintains that Adobe has violated consumer protection laws and is seeking "injunctive relief, civil penalties, equitable monetary relief, as well as other relief.”

Merrick Garland Held in Contempt of Congress

Merrick Garland , Held in Contempt of Congress. The Republican-controlled U.S. House of Representatives voted to hold the attorney general in contempt of Congress on June 12, BBC reports. The resolution was passed by a 216-207 vote. Only one Republican, David Joyce, voted in opposition. . As a former prosecutor, I cannot in good conscience support a resolution that would further politicize our judicial system to score political points, Rep. David Joyce, via statement. Garland is held in contempt of Congress for refusing to provide interview tapes with President Biden that were recorded during the Justice Department's classified document probe. . Following the contempt vote, Garland said House Republicans have "turned a serious congressional authority into a partisan weapon.". Today’s vote disregards the constitutional separation of powers, the Justice Department’s need to protect its investigations, and the substantial amount of information we have provided to the Committees. , Merrick Garland, via statement. Garland is now the third U.S. attorney general in American history to be held in contempt of Congress, BBC reports. . In an opinion piece published in the 'Washington Post' on June 11, Garland said that "the Justice Department is under attack like never before.". He pointed to a rise in "conspiracy theories, falsehoods, violence and threats of violence towards department officials by Republican critics.". The short-term political benefits of those tactics will never make up for the long-term cost to our country. , Merrick Garland, via the 'Washington Post'
