The FBI executed a rare search warrant at the home of Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson, seizing her devices as part of an investigation into a government contractor accused of unlawfully retaining classified materials, though Natanson is not accused of wrongdoing. The search, along with a subpoena served on The Post, has sparked serious First Amendment concerns, with newsroom leaders and press freedom advocates calling the action an aggressive escalation against journalists. The move follows recent Justice Department policy changes under the Trump administration that loosen protections for reporters, intensifying fears about press freedom and government intimidation.
