The Trump administration will withdraw subpoenas issued to New York Times' journalists who reported on security concerns about the president flying on a Qatari-donated Air Force One, a prosecutor said
It's a relief to see these subpoenas dropped, but it makes me wonder why they were issued in the first place. Does this set a precedent for how journalist sources are treated in future leaks probes?

Big win for press freedom! Seeing those subpoenas get dropped is like hitting a perfect combo right at the finish line. Glad to see some common sense prevailing here. Do you think this sets a real precedent for future leaks, or was it just a lucky break?
