DOJ Subpoenaed Jim Jordan’s Phone Toll Records in 2022, Verizon Produced Data

The request in the Arctic Frost Jan. 6 inquiry carried a yearlong gag order, seeking more than two years of metadata.

Overview

  • The subpoena sought Jordan’s toll records from January 1, 2020, through April 2022, with three additional phone numbers listed but redacted.
  • Investigators requested call-detail metadata rather than content, including times, numbers contacted, and details on texts and other signaling data.
  • The order was issued by DOJ prosecutor Timothy Duree in April 2022, months before Jack Smith became special counsel.
  • A court-approved nondisclosure directed Verizon not to notify Jordan for one year, citing risks to the investigation if disclosure occurred.
  • Verizon says it produced documents to the DOJ, informed Jordan upon learning new details, and is coordinating with congressional committees reviewing the subpoenas.
