A right-leaning nonprofit has sued the Department of Defense (DOD), claiming it “unlawfully” concealed records about an Obama administration-era order. According to the suit, those records could change the presumptions used to prosecute former President Donald Trump.

America First Legal (AFL) took the action against the DOD on April 4, seeking the release of documents related to the Presidential Information Technology Committee (PITC) established during the Obama administration.
