FBI Agents Sue DOJ Over Trump Case Involvement
Nine anonymous FBI agents filed a class-action lawsuit against the Justice Department, alleging an unlawful, retaliatory directive from President Trump to remove agents involved in the January 6th Capitol riot and Mar-a-Lago investigations. The suit cites a DOJ questionnaire targeting thousands of agents, potentially leading to termination or endangering agents and their families due to threats from pardoned January 6th defendants. A second lawsuit, involving the FBI Agents Association and seven additional anonymous agents, followed, similarly accusing the DOJ of mass, unlawful terminations. These actions are viewed as retaliation for agents fulfilling their duties.
