This is reported by the Washington Post.
According to the publication, this decision is part of a broader plan to reform the department, which Trump accuses of politically motivated persecution.
Trump also intends to dismiss the team of special prosecutor Jack Smith, who investigated allegations of his improper handling of classified documents and attempts to overturn the election results.
"President Donald Trump has promised to fire dishonest bureaucrats who have unlawfully weaponized the legal system, and Americans can expect him to keep that promise," stated Trump's press secretary, Caroline Levitt.
He insists that the 2020 election, which he lost to Joe Biden, was stolen from him. According to him, the election results were fabricated, and the cases against him are examples of political persecution.
Trump also plans to reinstate an executive order called Schedule F, which simplifies the dismissal of federal employees. Biden rescinded this order during his presidency.
Experts warn that the implementation of these plans may face legal and political hurdles, and it could take years.
Just before, newly elected President Donald Trump nominated a new candidate for the position of Attorney General. She is Pam Bondi — former Attorney General of Florida and his attorney.
