Attorney General Pam Bondi has fired at least 20 prosecutors and support staffers who assisted former Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigations
into President Donald Trump, sources familiar with the matter told ABC
News Saturday.
Senior leadership at the department had already ousted most of the
remaining prosecutors associated with the probes.
A DOJ spokesperson didn't immediately respond to ABC News' requests for comment.
Some of staffers who have been identified through the Justice
Department's "weaponization working group" may not have had any
significant role in driving the prosecutions themselves and were,
support staff, litigation assistants and U.S. marshals, according to
sources.
The firings have sent a chill through the remainder of the DOJ's career workforce, which had previously been left shaken by dramatic purges and reassignments of officials in the early days of Trump's presidency.
