Sources tell me the line prosecutors in that office are devastated by what has transpired. Their new leader, interim U.S. Attorney, Lindsey Halligan, has never prosecuted a case.

The EDVA US Attorney's Office is one of the country's most important because it handles complex national security and terrorism cases. After the Comey case and now this, that office is in shambles.

He had been detailed to work for Deputy AG Lisa Monaco, who herself has been targeted by Kelly, and subsequently Trump. Monaco is now working for Microsoft.

The Abbey Gate terrorist case is supposed to go trial in early December. Kash Patel and Pam Bondi made a point of going to the airport to meet the plane that brought the defendant to the U.S. Now the DoJ has fired the prosecutor for political reasons,

Michael Ben’Ary was a DoJ lifer who worked his way up the career ranks. He was the lead prosecutor in a case the Trump administration has boasted about, against an accused terrorist alleged to have been involved in the 2021 suicide bombing in Afghanistan that killed 13 U.S. service members.

Prosecutors "presented newly sworn US attorney Lindsey Halligan with a memo explaining ... there isn’t enough evidence to establish probable cause a crime was committed, let alone enough to convince a jury to convict him."
