Hundreds of former federal prosecutors, including former special counsel Jack Smith, have signed an open letter defending Department of Justice (DOJ) officials who recently resigned. They claim that the department is facing chaos under the Trump administration.
In a letter dated Feb. 17 and addressed to “career federal prosecutors,” the signees said that career officials at the DOJ are under attack and that they condemn the efforts of President Donald Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi in reforming the department.
