The Justice Department has reportedly issued a subpoena to New York Attorney General Letitia James, raising questions about whether she violated former President Trump's civil rights. This development was confirmed by sources on Friday.

The subpoenas represent an intensification of the Trump administration's ongoing efforts to investigate perceived adversaries. Among those targeted are individuals like James, who conducted investigations into Trump before his election win last November.

This development comes as the Justice Department continues to investigate the Trump-Russia probe. Meanwhile, the administration has been carrying out a large-scale reshuffle among law enforcement officials who were involved in examining Trump's activities and those of his supporters.
