DOJ subpoenas 4 Times reporters over Air Force One leak inquiry

What's next: The journalists are ordered before a Manhattan grand jury Wednesday as the Justice Department pursues classified leak claims.

The Justice Department has subpoenaed four New York Times journalists after the paper reported security concerns about President Donald Trump's new Air Force One, a Boeing 747-8 gifted by Qatar. The Times said federal agents delivered some subpoenas to reporters' homes and ordered Julian E. Barnes, Eric Lipton, Tyler Pager and Eric Schmitt to testify before a federal grand jury in Manhattan on Wednesday. The reporting said Trump flew to a NATO summit in Turkey on the new jet but returned on an older plane after Secret Service concerns. The department said reporters are not targets of the investigation and that it is pursuing officials suspected of leaking classified information.
