Court filings reveal the behind-the-scenes battle between prosecutors and Twitter over a search warrant for the former president’s account

the DOJ, which sought a search warrant for Trump’s account in January, argued in April that Trump engaged in a pattern of “obstructive conduct” and presented “a significant risk of tampering with evidence, seeking to influence or intimidate potential witnesses, and ‘otherwise seriously jeopardizing’ the Government’s ongoing investigations.
