President Donald Trump directed the Justice Department to fire all U.S. attorneys left over from the Biden administration.
In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump said the agency has been “politicized like never before.”
“Therefore, I have instructed the termination of ALL remaining “Biden Era” U.S. Attorneys. We must ‘clean house’ IMMEDIATELY, and restore confidence,” Trump wrote. “America’s Golden Age must have a fair Justice System – THAT BEGINS TODAY!”
Terminating U.S. attorneys from previous administrations is generally standard procedure.
