CNN reports that a White House-led leak investigation into disclosures about a Qatar-gifted Air Force One prompted officials to turn over their cell phones; Susie Wiles and Kash Patel spearheaded a West Wing “war room” effort that sought devices from travelers and aides. The probe, which came as the Justice Department subpoenaed four New York Times journalists, underscored unusual White House involvement in an investigation usually led by the DOJ and highlighted tensions over presidential security disclosures.
