Original Note:
In the absence of a grand jury subpoena or search warrant, federal law protects the financial records and other personal information of private citizens; see, e.g., 12 USC 3402 (https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/12/3402). The DOJ lacks the authority to seize such data for political purposes.
