DOJ Fires Prosecutors Over Abortion-Related Cases
1 week ago
The Trump administration has fired four Justice Department prosecutors who worked on cases involving anti-abortion activists.
Officials say the move comes amid accusations that the Biden administration misused a law designed to protect abortion clinics from obstruction and threats.
The Justice Department says it will not tolerate what it calls a “two-tiered system of justice,” arguing that past prosecutions were politically driven.
Critics, however, say the firings are politically motivated and raise concerns about the independence of federal law enforcement.
