FBI employees and the Justice Department reached a tentative deal to prevent the Trump administration from publicly releasing the names of personnel involved in investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol attack. A judge warned that disclosing their identities could put them in danger. The Justice Department previously ordered the FBI to compile a list of personnel involved in the investigation, raising concerns about mass firings. Trump’s Justice Department launched a working group to investigate the alleged weaponization of law enforcement. Attorney General Pam Bondi formed the group to review nearly 1,600 Capitol riot cases for alleged improper investigative tactics and unethical prosecutions.
