Trump's new DoJ supervisor Ed Martin has ordered the prosecutors of the Jan 6th cases demoted to a department that handles misdemeanours.
That's a big ouchie! Going from high end federal criminal, corruption and civil right cases to....dealing with people urinating in public as a ADA.
quote:
“As you know, each US Attorney must assess the needs of his office to achieve the goals set forth by the President and Attorney General. To that end, I must assign attorneys where I assess there is need and where I believe each AUSA can contribute,” Martin wrote in a demotion email viewed by Bloomberg Law.
The supervisors oversaw the office’s work on federal crimes, and public corruption and civil rights, among other offices, according to multiple people familiar with the moves. Now they been told to immediately report to misdemeanours or an office called the early case assessment section, said the individuals, who all spoke on condition of anonymity to share private conversations.

It's be my guess that since the DC judges won't allow these people to be fired the new AGA will just make them quit or make them suffer in terrible positions until they've had enough and agree to leave on their own.
Good Stuff! I love seeing hack proggie lawyers suffer.
