Susie Wiles Reportedly ‘in Shock’ That FBI Subpoenaed Her Phone Records
We learned yesterday that the FBI, under President Joe Biden, subpoenaed the phone records of Wiles, Trump’s chief of staff, and FBI Director Kash Patel when they were private citizens.
Susie Wiles, chief of staff of President Donald Trump, is reportedly “in shock” after finding out that the FBI subpoenaed her phone records when special counsel investigated Trump in 2022 and 2023.
Axios reported that Wiles told associates, “I’m in shock.”
We learned yesterday that the FBI, under President Joe Biden, subpoenaed the phone records of Wiles and FBI Director Kash Patel when they were private citizens.
The subpoenas came out when Smith investigated Trump for allegedly trying to overturn the 2020 election and hiding classified information at Mar-a-Lago.
“It is outrageous and deeply alarming that the previous FBI leadership secretly subpoenaed my own phone records – along with those of now White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles – using flimsy pretexts and burying the entire process in prohibited case files designed to evade all oversight,” Patel told Reuters.
Smith’s crew interviewed Patel and Wiles during the investigation.
The FBI recorded a phone call between Wiles and her attorney in 2023.
Get this. The attorney knew the FBI would record the call and consented.
The attorney never told Wiles.
We learned in October that Smith tracked eight Republican senators during his investigation.
The September 27, 2023, memo titled CAST [Cellular Analysis Survey Team] Assistance listed the phone numbers of senators who stated that an FBI agent “conducted preliminary toll analysis on limited toll records associated with” them.

A few weeks later, Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) revealed that Smith targeted over 400 Republicans during Arctic Frost:
The subpoenas, which were provided to Grassley through legally protected whistleblower disclosures, were sent to 34 individuals and 163 businesses. These 197 subpoenas requested testimony, communications and records related to at least 430 named Republican individuals and entities. Some of the records Smith subpoenaed from banks, individuals and businesses included:
- Communications with media companies such as CBS, Fox News, Fox Business, Newsmax, Sinclair and others.
- Communications with “any member, employee or agent of the Legislative Branch of the U.S. Government.”
- Communications with White House advisors, such as Stephen Miller, Dan Scavino, Jared Kushner, Lara Trump and others.
- Statistical data and analysis relating to donors and fundraising efforts.
- Broad financial data relating to conservative individuals and entities.
I wonder what else we’ll find out.

Wile’s attorney needs to be disbarred.
Damn right he should be. She should sue the crap out of him.
Certainly exposed, if nothing else.
He/she is certainly not hirable with this level of client betrayal.
At the least a bar complaint needs to be lodged. Anyone know who he is?
Anyone know for sure that the FBI wasn’t lying about that too?
The lawyer denies it, so the FBI is likely lying about it. I’ll give the lawyer the benefit of the doubt given that the FBI is 99% scumbags.
If one was in DC and the other wasn’t, it won’t be a matter of opinion if any part of the conversation was by phone. All calls between DC and the rest of the world have been being recorded—and stored—for at least the past 40 years.
I wouldn’t think anyone associated with Donald Trump should be surprised the government was illegally spying on them
Can we call the blowback of justice “frostbite” for Biden cronies?
Stories like this make me laugh when Demsocialists whine about PRESIDENT Trump being “dictatorial” and “authoritarian,” not to mention “fascist.”
The foundation of the Dem party is projection, hypocrisy and corruption.
The recent disclosures from the Salt Typhoon failure shows that the Feds were running CALEA for a while. We know that before that there were several other programs, and Snowden describe a few of them. As I noted here before, the original Google voice transcription system is based on UN data and provides Google the ability to do text snooping on any voice data. The extant “pen register” rulings, combined with the rulings on cell phone triangulation and related metadata mean there is no privacy.
Having invented and implemented the idea of manipulating *compressed* 2-dimensional image data, I am certain the Feds can scan compressed audio data and pull out meaning… without ever “listening to” the recorded, compressed, archived data stream.
Sadly, Susie Wiles is either ignorant, pretending to be ignorant, or is stupid. Nobody in Washington should consider any of his activity for the last 25 years to be private. The facts point the other way. The fact that the FISA court can issue secret secrecy orders under Section 702 is an admission that these illegal programs exist. Heck, the Congress even released a report stating so, just last year.

One thing to remember is that Susie Wilde didn’t work for Donald Trump during his first term. She was his campaign manager in 2016 in the State of Florida but did not join the administration. Cash Patel didn’t work for Donald Trump then either, he worked for Devin Nunes. No legitimate reason to go after either of their records
Smith’s goal was to get enough Republicans kicked out of the House and Senate for questioning the 2020 election to give the Democrats a working majority in both chambers.
How was he planning to go about that, since expelling a member requires a 2/3 majority of that chamber, which means he’d have needed substantial Republican support for the expulsions.
IANAL …
… but as a layman, I thought the FBI had to get a judge to sign off on the subpoenas..
Why is there no accountability for the judge (s)? How do they get complete and total immunity from making a bad decision.
It’s almost as bad as a MLB umpire. ⚾⚾⚾
Judges sign warrants, not subpoenas. As far as I know, unless they want to listen to a conversation they don’t need a warrant just for phone records that the phone company already has.
The semi-truck driven through the eye of the needle is the current judicial concept of “listen” does not take into account the modern tools that are available to do analysis that is not going to fit the idea “listen”. Is it listening if an automated tool creates a transcript?
There is a very serious lack of imagination, lack of technical capability, and lack of technical understanding. The courts are seriously ignorant. Is there anybody in the Federal judiciary that could explain how real time deep packet inspection works? Almost certainly not.
Given a recording that is compressed, archived and nobody has ever heard…
What about if another tool creates a voice like the intended target, speaks some words that could possibly have been spoken, and then a third tool compares the totally synthetic compressed recording to a compressed recording that nobody has “listened to”? Then that form of analysis is done 3 million times a second to search a very large part of the spoken word probability space? So much so that a very complete synthetic recording can be produced? Nobody has ever “listened to” anything, but all meaning from the voice recording has been extracted. With a few FPGA pipelines you can run Newton’s method on the audio stream, seeking to converge on meaning. The compute power to do this used to cost billions, but now costs less than a pickup truck.
No warrants were ever issued, because none were required.
The position of the Communist media will simultaneously be (1) it 100% never happened, and (2) it was 100% justified and necessary to save Our Precious Democracy (TM).
The FBI recorded a phone call between Wiles and her attorney in 2023.
Get this. The attorney knew the FBI would record the call and consented.
The attorney never told Wiles.
I certainly hope that her Attorney is DEAD, because if he is not, he is in for a WORLD of hurt when Ms. Wiles files a giant grievance against him or her for their betrayal of their client, and then Wiles should demand that the local disciplinary committee file to DISBAR him or her as having violated the ethical rules of representation of a client.
Yeah if our judicial system wasn’t corrupted by Commassar Judges
I read this claim in the story but didn’t get any information to back it up. Link to a different story? Lawyer’s name? I’d like to hear the evidence the lawyer consented to recording private conversations with his client without notifying the client because if that is true the lawyer stands the real possibility of never practicing law again.

I’d like to make the point again on why the Left can’t meme.
Because fascism is a political philosophy that posits state supremacy over individual liberty, the term is strictly applicable to the Democrats. They are statists and they plan to run our lives for us. But some lib has modified this meme so that it’s about Republicans. Actual, conservative Republicans aren’t statists. MAGA Republicans are “rugged individualist” types. Libs don’t understand that what makes a meme funny and biting at the same time is that it must be based on truth. Sure, they think their version of the meme is funny, but that’s because they don’t 1.) really understand what “fascism” is about; and 2.) don’t realize that they’re the baddies.
Democrats will wage war on us with impunity. And get away with it. We on the other hand in response, will be ‘shocked’.
“Get this. The attorney knew the FBI would record the call and consented.
The attorney never told Wiles.”
Is this customary in the US legal system?
“President Joe Biden, subpoenaed the phone records of Wiles and FBI Director Kash Patel when they were private citizens.”
Hm. Guess who’s a private citizen now?
Securing those records requires an FBI-drafted affidavit that is then reviewed by a federal judge or magistrate. I’d love to see the probable cause spelled out and find out who the judge was that approved such a warrant. At the very least the FBI is complicit in this hoax and the judge should have been smart enough to smell a rat and not signed the warrant.
This is another example of why ‘ownership’ of consumer data should remain with the consumer. Yes it will upend the business model of ‘free’ tech services which sell your data to advertisers and others. Too bad. A hard bright line should be set for ‘tech’ data. I’d also argue that bank and financial reporting rules should follow a similar path with reporting thresholds raised not lowered with the exception of domestic to foreign transactions such as wire transfers.
