President-elect Donald Trump is reportedly planning to fire everyone who worked with special counsel Jack Smith on criminal cases against him.
The Washington Post reported that multiple sources close to the Trump transition team indicated that those who will be fired also include career attorneys who are often not fired when a new administration takes over.
The report added that Trump wants to create investigative teams within the department to look for evidence of fraud from the 2020 election that may have happened in battleground states.
“President Trump campaigned on firing rogue bureaucrats who have engaged in the illegal weaponization of our American justice system, and the American people can expect he will deliver on that promise,” Trump Press Secretary-designate Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.
“One of the many reasons that President Trump won the election in a landslide is Americans are sick and tired of seeing their tax dollars spent on targeting the Biden-Harris Administration’s political enemies rather than going after real violent criminals in our streets,” she added.

Trump’s plans come after he announced on Thursday that he has selected former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi to be the next U.S. Attorney General.
Bondi’s nomination came after former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) withdrew his name from consideration this week after meeting with several U.S. Senators about his chances of being confirmed.
Gaetz threw his support behind Bondi on Thursday night, saying that Trump made a “stellar selection” by choosing her.
“Pam and I worked closely together when she was Florida’s Attorney General and I chaired Criminal Justice in the state house,” he said. “She’s a proven litigator, an inspiring leader and a champion for all Americans. She will bring the needed reforms to DOJ.”
