Overview
- U.S. Attorney Jason Reding Quinones is supervising the South Florida probe in coordination with Justice Department leaders in Washington.
- Planned subpoenas would seek documents, emails and text messages related to drafting the Intelligence Community’s January 2017 assessment on Russian interference.
- Reuters reports it is not clear whether the subpoenas have been issued or who will receive them due to grand jury secrecy rules.
- John Brennan has not been indicted and denies wrongdoing, as House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan’s Oct. 21 referral accuses him of false statements to Congress.
- Quinones’ office is reviewing materials from Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team, while earlier Barr-era inquiries reported no crimes in the assessment’s preparation.
