Donald Trump’s revenge is underway. The Department of Justice announced on Monday the dismissal of prosecutors and employees who collaborated in the two judicial investigations against the current president only one week after his return to the White House. Trump had already announced that he would fire the special prosecutor Jack Smith as soon as he takes possession, but this now, the purge extends to other members of the Department of Justice with the argument of loss of confidence.
“Today, the acting attorney general James Mchenry dismissed a series of officials of the Department of Justice who played a significant role in the prosecution of President Trump,” said a DOJ official in a statement. “In the light of their actions, the acting attorney general does not trust that these officials help faithfully implement the president’s agenda. This action is consistent with the mission of ending government instrumentalization, ”he added.
The Department of Justice achieved the imputation of Donald Trump in the case of the Mar-A-Lago roles, his mansion in Palm Beach (Florida) in which he retained confidential documents, and for the president’s attempt to subvert Joe’s victory Biden in the 2020 elections.
Jack Smith, the special prosecutor who directed both investigations ,. Smith abandoned both cases against Trump after he won the elections of November 5, citing the policy of the Department of Justice against the processing of a president. None of these cases came to trial, but the prosecutor held in a hard report that for the electoral case. His report on the case of official secrets did not see the light by judicial decision.
