“In light of their actions, the Acting Attorney General does not trust these officials to assist in faithfully implementing the President’s agenda.”Fox News learned that the Department of Justice fired over a dozen prosecutors who served on Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team investigating now-President Donald Trump.
A DOJ official said that Acting Attorney General James McHenry found them untrustworthy.
Fox News did not find out the names of the fired prosecutors:
“Today, Acting Attorney General James McHenry terminated the employment of a number of DOJ officials who played a significant role in prosecuting President Trump,” a DOJ official told Fox News Digital. “In light of their actions, the Acting Attorney General does not trust these officials to assist in faithfully implementing the President’s agenda.”
This action “is consistent with the mission of ending the weaponization of government,” the official told Fox News Digital.
The move comes after the Justice Department reassigned more than a dozen officials in the first week of the Trump administration to a Sanctuary City task force and other measures.
