This was just unsealed. In the last weeks of the Trump administration, William Barr's Justice Department tried to use a secret grand jury subpoena to unmask @NunesAlt, a Devin Nunes parody account. https://t.co/ENc4oiUV0f

DoJ also got a gag order, claiming that disclosure of the subpoena would likely "result in flight from prosecution, destruction of or tampering with evidence, intimidation of potential witnesses, and serious jeopardy to the investigation" of the Nunes parody account. pic.twitter.com/nc0BHx2hhl

If you don't know what WarnerMedia, it is the company that contains: Warner Bros. studios, Warner Bros., HBO, HBO Max, Turner Classic Movies, TNT, Turner Sports, DC movies, TBS and CNN.
(WarnerBros. also is responsible for Friends, The Big Bang Theory, TMZ, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, The Bachelor, Conan,....)
In 2018, AT&T acquired WarnerMedia and decided to shake things up by ousting the guy in charge of HBO who was responsible for The Sopranos and other HBO hits. In 2020, they decided to bring in their own guy.
April 1, 2020:
Jason Kilar is hired as WarnerMedia CEO.
August 7, 2020:
He announces layoffs.
December 2020:
Kilar becomes a "villain" by announcing that all 2021 Warner Bros. movies will be released on HBO Max and in theaters simultaneously.
May 14, 2021 (last Friday):
Kilar is profiled by the Wall Street Journal.
May 16, 2021 (yesterday):
It is revealed that WarnerMedia is getting out of the content business, in a merger with Discovery, which owns Discovery Channel, Food Network, HGTV, Oprah Winfrey Network, Animal Planet. And that Discovery's CEO would become the new CEO of the joint company.
May 17, 2021 (today):
Jason Kilar is effectively ousted from his job.

The wet dream would have been if Trump were the one taken off the plane, roughed up, and jailed - then forced to provide a statement about all his crimes.bearister said:

Gun decontrol: "Permitless carry"
Texas is set to remove one of its last major gun restrictions after the Republican-dominated legislature voted to allow people to carry handguns without a license, background check or training, AP reports.
Gov. Greg Abbott (R) says he'll sign it, despite objections by law enforcement groups, which say it'll endanger the public and police.
Gun control groups note the state's recent history of mass shootings.
The big picture: Texas will become the 21st state, and by far the most populous, to allow some form of unregulated carry of a handgun, the NRA which strongly supports the measures told Reuters.
Gun-rights advocates call it a "constitutional carry" law." Axios
