FBI fires at least 10 agents tied to Trump documents probe

TL;DR Summary
At least 10 FBI agents who worked on Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigations into President Trump’s handling of classified records and the Mar-a-Lago documents case were fired. The firings followed a Reuters report that the FBI subpoenaed phone records of Susie Wiles and Kash Patel; Patel alleged the subpoenas were issued on flimsy grounds, though CBS News could not verify his claims about his own records. The FBI Agents Association called the firings a violation of due process, while Smith’s dual probes previously produced high-profile actions and subsequent personnel changes by the Trump administration.
