The agents – Jamie Garman, Blaire Toleman and Michelle Ball – all worked on a public corruption squad in the FBI’s Washington field office and worked on investigations of Trump. “Defendants’ mission – in their own words – is retribution.”The justice department did not immediately return a request for comment. Two other fired agents who played small roles in the Trump investigations sued the bureau anonymously earlier this month for wrongful termination. Those agents filed their lawsuit under a pseudonym, saying that using their real names “would subject them and their families to an immediate risk of doxing, SWATting, harassment, and physical harm”. “There is not a single man or woman at the Department of Justice who had anything to do with those prosecutions,” he said.
