Overview
- Attorney General Pam Bondi said the Arctic Frost investigation included seizing President Trump’s government‑issued phone and subpoenaing his personal call logs.
- Documents released by Senate Republicans show Jack Smith’s team issued 197 subpoenas and sought toll‑record metadata tied to Jan. 4–7, 2021, including numbers linked to multiple GOP senators.
- House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan sent letters to Verizon and AT&T seeking documents on their handling of subpoenas, citing potential Speech or Debate Clause concerns.
- Verizon confirmed it provided call records under a court gag order and said it will now require senior‑level escalation for subpoenas targeting members of Congress; AT&T said it resisted similar demands.
- Judge James Boasberg approved one‑year nondisclosure orders for the carriers, and separate reports say the FBI’s personnel moves involving agents tied to Arctic Frost remain contested and under review.
