據美國政客新聞網劇本(POLITICO Playbook)2020年5月14日 17:56PM（北京時間）文章稱：

警笛……在夜間爆響……《洛杉磯時報》的戴爾·昆廷·威爾伯和詹·哈伯肯報道：“美國聯邦調查局對參議員就與冠狀病毒有關的股票銷售進行調查發出了搜查令。”

SIREN … BREAKING OVERNIGHT … L.A. TIMES: “FBI serves warrant on senator in investigation of stock sales linked to coronavirus.” by Del Quentin Wilbur and Jen Haberkorn:

一位執法官員說，聯邦探員週三晚間查獲了一位知名共和黨參議員的手機，這是美國司法部對他在新型冠狀病毒首次襲擊美國時進行的有爭議的股票交易進行調查的一部分。

Federal agents seized a cellphone belonging to a prominent Republican senator on Wednesday night as part of the Justice Department’s investigation into controversial stock trades he made as the novel coronavirus first struck the U.S., a law enforcement official said.

美國國會參議院情報委員會(Senate Intelligence Committee)主席、北卡羅來納州參議員理查德·伯爾(Richard Burr)在特工向這位議員（即理查德·伯爾）在華盛頓地區的住所發出搜查令後，伯爾把自己的電話交給了特工。一位官員說，因爲討論一項執法行動，這位官員要求匿名。…...

Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina, the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, turned over his phone to agents after they served a search warrant on the lawmaker at his residence in the Washington area, the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss a law enforcement action. …

這樣的逮捕令送達在任參議員需要得到美國司法部最高層的批准，這是一個不容小覷的步驟。美國司法部發言人克里·庫佩克(Kerri Kupec)拒絕置評。

Such a warrant being served on a sitting U.S. senator would require approval from the highest ranks of the Justice Department and is a step that would not be taken lightly. Kerri Kupec, a Justice Department spokeswoman, declined to comment.

另一名執法官員說，聯邦調查局(FBI)特工近日向蘋果公司(Apple)發出了一個搜查令，要求從伯爾的iCloud賬戶獲取信息，並說特工使用了從這家總部位於加州的公司獲得的數據作爲證據的一部分，用來爲這位參議員的手機獲得搜查令。

A second law enforcement official said FBI agents served a warrant in recent days on Apple to obtain information from Burr’s iCloud account and said agents used data obtained from the California-based company as part of the evidence used to obtain the warrant for the senator’s phone.

在這之後，很難想象伯爾如何能繼續擔任參議院情報委員會主席。

IT’S TOUGH TO SEE HOW BURR can stay as chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee after this.
