The Justice Department is investigating a House Democrat for allegedly misusing government funds for personal security.
The House Sergeant at Arms has been served a subpoena for documents related to the investigation.
Prior to this report, there were conspiracy theories linking the subpoena to the January 6 Capitol protests, but the specific target of the investigation remains unknown.
Keep in mind, Rep Scott Perry's communications seized pursuant to a search warrant in 2022 were JUST finally released to Jack Smith's office after a prolonged "speech or debate" privilege battle that Perry mostly lost. I wonder if this new subpoena is related. https://t.co/NYmhtXUVoU

“The Office of the Sergeant at Arms for the House of Representatives has been served with a grand jury subpoena for documents issued by the U.S. Department of Justice. After consulting with the Office of General Counsel, I have determined that compliance with the subpoena is consistent with the rights and privileges of the House,” House Sergeant at Arms William P. McFarland wrote.
