Show Notes
The Trump Justice Department secretly subpoenaed Apple to obtain phone data belonging to Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee as part of a leak investigation. Now, Attorney General Lisa Monaco is asking the Justice Department’s Inspector General to investigate the handling of these subpoenas.
Plus, a group of 10 bipartisan senators signal that they have reached a compromise on an infrastructure package -- but the proposal faces an uncertain future in both chambers of Congress.
And, a Peach-state sized blow to Trump’s 2022 recruitment efforts. Sources tell CNN that the former president’s top recruit to primary Georgia Governor Brian Kemp has eyes for another job.
On today’s show: CNN’s Abby Phillip, Jessica Schneider, Manu Raju, Evan Perez, Kaitlan Collins and Michael Warren; CNN Legal Analyst Carrie Cordero; Tarini Parti of The Wall Street Journal; Margaret Talev of Axios; and Karoun Demirjian of The Washington Post.
