It took place in 2018 but McGahn was only told in May.
Another day brings another explosive report about information that the Justice Department sought during former President Donald Trump’s administration. And the latest one is a doozy because of the person involved. Turns out, Apple told former White House counsel Don McGahn that the Justice Department subpoenaed the company for information about an account he owned in February 2018,. McGahn’s wife also received a similar notice from Apple.
This latest revelation raises a lot of questions. It isn’t clear what information Apple handed prosecutors and it also isn’t known exactly why the Justice Department wanted the information and whether the focus was McGahn or he was just part of a broader collection of data. But it’s extraordinary that the Justice Department would subpoena records for the White House counsel.
