Judge rules Adam Schiff's impeachment subpoena records can stay secret

A district court ruled the still-secret subpoenas issued for a host of call records made public by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff during last year’s impeachment investigation of President Trump can remain concealed from the public.

Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, filed a lawsuit in December against Schiff and his committee seeking access to “the controversial subpoenas issued for phone records,” including those of Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani. Judicial Watch pointed out that Schiff’s impeachment report included “the publication of the private phone records of Giuliani, Congressman Devin Nunes, journalist John Solomon, Trump attorney Jay Sekulow, attorney Victoria Toensing, and other American citizens.”
