NYT reporters subpoenaed over Air Force One security concerns stories

The Trump administration has issued subpoenas to multiple New York Times journalists regarding their recent reports on security concerns related to the new Air Force One, a plane gifted by Qatar. The subpoenas require the journalists to testify before a federal grand jury in Manhattan. The reports, which cannot be independently verified, suggest that the new jet lacks certain advanced security features compared to older models, including anti-missile capabilities. These claims were made amid heightened tensions between the U.S. and Iran, following a collapsed ceasefire and retaliatory airstrikes. President Trump denied any security concerns during a trip to England, stating the switch of aircraft was to allow military personnel to see the new jet. The White House has since dismissed any allegations of security deficiencies, asserting that the new Air Force One is equipped with top-tier security measures.
