Trump Orders Dismissal of Federal Prosecutors

President Trump has directed the Department of Justice to fire all remaining federal prosecutors from the Biden administration, citing politicization. He emphasizes the need for a fair judicial system starting today.


The President of the United States, Donald Trump, issued an order directing the Department of Justice to fire all federal prosecutors who remain in office from the previous Democratic administration of Joe Biden. This measure arises amid a typical power transition process and seeks, according to Trump, to end the alleged politicization of the Department of Justice.

During the appearance of the current Attorney General, Pam Bondi, before a Senate committee in January, she promised to restore public trust and eliminate those individuals who act improperly in the office. Bondi assured that her goal was to put an end to the politicization of the institution.

In a message posted on his social network Truth Social, Donald Trump expressed his decision to dismiss all federal prosecutors who still hold their positions from the Biden era. The Republican president stated that the cabinet had become more politicized than allowed and that it was necessary to "clean house" immediately.
