Get the complete picture here. Trump Media chief Devin Nunes said his firm learned that Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team subpoenaed financial records from JPMorgan Chase. He argued the move reached beyond the scope of the investigation and targeted a private business with thousands of everyday shareholders. Nunes Calls Subpoena “Abuse Of Power” Nunes said his company discovered the subpoena through the Senate Judiciary Committee. He accused Smith’s office of conducting surveillance on more than 400 Trump-connected people or entities. Nunes said Trump Media did not even exist when the events under review occurred. He also wants answers from the SEC and JPMorgan on when they became aware of the request and whether anyone disclosed confidential information.
