Wave of Resignations Hits US Department of Justice as Two More Senior Officials Step Down

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, …

The US Department of Justice experienced further turmoil on Friday with the resignation of two more senior officials. John Eisenberg, who headed the Justice Department’s National Security Division, and Jason Reading Quinones, responsible for overseeing criminal investigations related to Donald Trump, both stepped down from their posts.

These high-level departures follow the resignation on Thursday of Harmeet Dhillon, the head of the department’s Civil Rights Division.

While an official reason for the resignations has not yet been announced, analysts suggest the move is a reaction to the Republican Party’s setback in the United States midterm elections, as Democrats prepare to launch extensive investigations into the performance of the Trump administration.

According to available information, Quinones was among the figures central to efforts by Donald Trump to leverage the US Department of Justice as a tool to settle scores with political rivals.
