FBI employees have been ordered to answer questions about their involvement in criminal cases related to the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, leading to fears of more firings at the agency. Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove fired eight senior FBI officials on Friday, and another memo demanded that the FBI provide a list of employees who worked on the January 6 cases. Democrats and critics have accused Trump's team of purging officials involved in cases against Trump and the Capitol rioters. Some employees have started clearing out their desks amid concerns of being targeted.
