House Judiciary Committee Investigates Ouster of Virginia U.S. Attorney

Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee are reviewing the ousting of federal prosecutor Erik Siebert, who resigned as U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia amid concerns over his failure to prosecute New York Attorney General Letitia James. Simultaneously, former FBI Director James Comey was indicted on charges related to past testimony, with interim U.S. attorney Lindsey Halligan taking over, prompting Democrats to request records regarding communications between the White House and the Justice Department about various political figures, including Comey and Schiff.
