(Washington, DC) Judicial Watch announced today that it received 372 pages of records from the U.S. Department of State that confirm prior Judicial Watch reporting that the Ukraine Embassy under then-Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch monitored, in potential violation of law, Donald Trump, Jr. Rudy Giuliani, and major journalists on Twitter, on their commentary on Ukraine, “Biden-Burisma 2020”, and George Soros.
The documents list the targeted persons as:
Sean Hannity
Laura Ingraham
Rudy Giuliani
Dan Bongino
Sebastian Gorka
John Solomon
Jack Posobiec
Ryan Saavedra
Sara A Carter
Donald Trump Jr.
Michael McFaul
Lou Dobbs
Pamela Gellar
The search terms that were flagged to be monitored by State Department officials on social media included Yovanovitch, Ukraine Ambassador, Ukrainian Ambassador, Ukraine Soros, Clinton campaign, and Biden-Burisma.
The emails show that Yovanovitch was aware of the social media monitoring program.
Additionally, a State Department contractor warned his colleagues that their monitoring of private citizens was potentially in violation of the Privacy Act of 1974.
“These new documents confirm Deep State officials at the Ukraine Embassy seemed to set up an enemies list to help illicitly monitor and report on the social media postings of President Trump’s family and lawyer, as well as journalists,” stated Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.

This has all been Chicago politics.
What do they mean by “monitored?” Anyone can go look at social media posts. So that can’t be illegal?

You can do it as an individual, but it is against two different federal laws for govt officials to do it using automated systems.
