At least 10 FBI staffers connected to Trump investigations fired
AI Summary
Approximately ten FBI staffers involved in the investigation of Donald Trump's handling of classified documents after his first term were fired on Wednesday. The firings occurred shortly after reports surfaced that the phone records of Kash Patel and Susie Wiles were subpoenaed during the investigation when they were private citizens. These staffers participated in the case led by Special Counsel Jack Smith, which focused on classified documents Trump took to Mar-a-Lago and alleged obstruction of their retrieval. An advocacy group representing FBI employees condemned the firings, citing concerns about weakened expertise and destabilized workforce. Since Trump's return to the White House, the Justice Department and FBI have terminated employees involved in investigations against him, and attempted to pursue charges against James Comey and Letitia James.
