The Trump administration has dismissed at least three Justice Department prosecutors tied to the politically charged January 6 cases, a move that signals a continuing effort to restore integrity, impartiality, and constitutional order to the nation’s legal system.

According to Fox13 and The Associated Press, the dismissals include two senior supervisory attorneys involved in managing Capitol riot prosecutions and a third line prosecutor who worked on individual criminal cases.

Attorney General Pam Bondi, appointed by President Trump in January, reportedly signed at least one of the termination letters. While the letter did not offer a detailed explanation, it cited the administration’s constitutional authority under Article II of the U.S. Constitution—a reminder that federal prosecutors serve at the pleasure of the president.

Sources familiar with the internal actions confirmed the dismissals but spoke anonymously due to the sensitive nature of the personnel decisions. The Justice Department declined to comment publicly.

These latest firings are part of a broader shake-up within the DOJ, aimed at rolling back politicized prosecutions and reining in bureaucrats who helped drive the weaponization of the justice system during the Biden era.

In February, interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin reassigned key members of the department’s Capitol Siege Section—including prosecutors responsible for controversial seditious conspiracy convictions against Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes and Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio.

One month earlier, then–acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove terminated roughly two dozen prosecutors who had been embedded within the DOJ under Biden’s politically motivated January 6 task force. These individuals had initially been hired as temporary staff but were quietly converted to permanent roles after Biden’s 2020 win—a move Bove blasted as “subversive personnel actions.”

Despite repeated demands from the media and Democrat lawmakers, the DOJ under President Trump has not issued public statements on whether more terminations are forthcoming. However, confidence is growing within conservative legal circles that more personnel accountability is on the horizon.

The DOJ shake-up follows President Trump’s historic mass pardon of over 1,500 individuals convicted or charged in relation to the January 6 protest—many of whom were railroaded by prosecutors and judges intent on making political examples out of ordinary Americans.

On his first day back in office, President Trump wiped clean the records of those convicted of trespassing, non-violent offenses, and in several cases, overzealous seditious conspiracy charges—sending a clear message that justice will no longer be hijacked for political purposes.

While most January 6 cases have now been resolved—through sentencing, dropped charges, or presidential pardon—several financial and organizational probes remain active. The effect of these prosecutor firings on those cases remains unclear.

Meanwhile, the Justice Department has escalated its fight against activist judges who are attempting to interfere with immigration enforcement through procedural gimmicks.

This week, DOJ attorneys filed a federal lawsuit against all 15 district court judges in Maryland, challenging a standing order that imposes a 48-hour delay on deportations for any detainee who files a habeas petition in the state.

According to the Washington Post, the DOJ’s complaint argues that Chief Judge George L. Russell III overstepped his constitutional authority by issuing an “unlawful, antidemocratic” standing order back in May.

“The recent influx of habeas petitions concerning alien detainees … that have been filed after normal court hours and on weekends and holidays has created scheduling difficulties and resulted in hurried and frustrating hearings,” Judge Russell wrote in his order.

The DOJ countered that judicial inconvenience is not an excuse to undermine federal immigration law:

“A sense of frustration and a desire for greater convenience do not give Defendants license to flout the law,” the department stated.

From the Justice Department to the federal bench, the Trump administration is sending a clear message: the era of politicized prosecution is over. The ongoing housecleaning at DOJ is more than a personnel shuffle—it is a constitutional correction, long overdue, that reaffirms the president’s authority and the rule of law.
