This whole mess came out in a court hearing last week where, not only did the judge criticize the government’s attorneys, the government itself acknowledged its numerous errors and mistakes before eventually withdrawing the subpoenas.

A member of the Democratic Party, Wyden has been a prominent advocate for civil liberties, healthcare reform, and technology policy. Throughout his tenure, he has focused on issues such as privacy rights, government surveillance, and access to healthcare, often emphasizing the importance of transparency and accountability in government actions.
I am also deeply concerned about Mr. Clayton’s role in the abusive subpoenas issued to New York Times journalists.
Mr. Clayton didn’t offer a shred of evidence to support his conspiracy theories, so I asked him – who were these mythical election bandits?
More importantly, independent privacy and security oversight is not an optional expense to be cut when it becomes inconvenient.
We want to stress that this is not the time for creating new or different criteria for accessing this critical funding to support initial attack.
Mr. Clayton is willing to say anything in defense of Donald Trump’s corruption and abuses.
That's why Congress must pass the WARRIOR Act—to protect the fact that every qualified servicemember should be judged by merit, not by chauvinistic and outdated perceptions of gender roles.
Pete Hegseth has made no secret of his contempt for women and transgender servicemembers.

I'm gratified the work to secure the end of this needless confusion for these hardworking Oregonians is in the bill.

Trump’s sweetheart audit immunity deal is perhaps the most brazenly corrupt action taken by a president in American history.
Rein in this lawlessness by Trump, while defeating it would amount to an endorsement of an obscene and illegal self-dealing by the president of the United States.
Big steps to make some history in the area of tax policy and get us on the road to wringing out some of the inefficiency in the tax code.
Deciding when and how to start a family is deeply personal, and Americans deserve access to the full spectrum of quality health care to make those critical decisions.
Every community in Oregon deserves access to safe and reliable health care.
Jay Clayton has no business being confirmed for this role. He has repeatedly demonstrated his eagerness to support Donald Trump’s conspiracy theories and corruption.
If he didn’t know, then he had no idea what his own office was doing, despite having signed the subpoenas, which isn’t a great qualification for someone to lead our intelligence agencies.
Mr. Clayton is the U.S. Attorney in the Southern District. He signed the subpoenas. He is responsible for this effort to intimidate the press.
The only reason to avoid the question is to satisfy Donald Trump’s delicate ego.
The moment they are asked to provide some evidence – any evidence – for their claims, they fall back on the 'I was just asking a question' excuse.
