FBI Fires More Than 10 Agents Tied to Trump Classified-Docs Probe

TL;DR Summary
CBS News reports that at least 10 FBI employees who worked on Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into President Trump’s handling of classified documents were fired. The moves followed a Reuters article about subpoenas of phone records for Kash Patel and Susie Wiles; Patel’s claims were not independently verified. All fired personnel were involved in the classified-documents case, and the FBI Agents Association criticized the firings as a breach of due process. The piece also references Smith’s dual probes and related political and administrative fallout.
