More unexpected changes have been handed down from Attorney General Pam Bondi’s Department of Justice (DOJ), even after a tumultuous week in Washington.

News broke on Monday that the DOJ is going to see a wave of firings, effectively upending how the department works, as Breitbart News reported.

The department fired immigration court Judge Jennifer Peyton, who was previously the head of the Chicago immigration court system.

That News came shortly after at least 20 staffers who worked under former special counsel Jack Smith were dismissed, something many saw as retribution for Smith's continued investigations into the president in the time between his first and second terms.

Notable firing

One of the most notable firings to date is that of Maurene Comey, a New York-based federal prosecutor, with a famous dad, Former FBI director James Comey.

Maurene Comey was fired last week, and it seems apparent that it likely had to do with her work on high-profile cases, including the Jeffrey Epstein case and the Sean “Diddy” Combs case.

Legal analysts are divided about whether the veteran prosecutor was fairly let go, or not, with former FBI Agent Nicole Parker saying, “It’s about time,” and that Comey “failed in two cases.”

From dear old Dad

James Comey spoke out about the firing, saying that there was a possible “grave danger” in continuing to trust federal prosecutors at the DOJ after his daughter was fired, saying that President Donald Trump is “hammering” at the department.

Comey read a letter from his daughter in reaction to the firing and said, "I don't have much to add to that, except to say: the reservoir is in grave danger right now."

"Trump and the hacks who lead the Department of Justice are hammering at the dam day after day, trying to turn it into just another gold-leaf-covered Trump subsidiary.

Other departments' cuts

Other departments are being overhauled as well. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office also saw some changes, with another staffer leaving the Department of Defense, as The Daily Mail reported.

Senior Advisor Justin Fulcher announced just days ago that he was leaving the Pentagon, saying that he only planned to work in government for six months.

Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell said in a statement to NewsNation that “The Department of Defense is grateful to Justin Fulcher for his work on behalf of President Trump and Secretary Hegseth.

“We wish him well in his future endeavors,” Parnell said.
