Michael Steele expressed skepticism about former President Trump's claim of ignorance regarding the mass firings of FBI agents who were involved in investigations against him. Following the dismissals, which critics termed a 'purge', Steele remarked that it was implausible for such actions to occur without White House knowledge. NBC News' Ryan Reilly echoed Steele's sentiment, highlighting conversations with fired agents who affirmed their commitment to their work on handling violent offenders from the January 6 Capitol riot.
MICHAEL STEELE: There's just so much that I personally want to unpack on that and unload on that right now. But you're our guest, I'm going to give you the chance to do that.
RYAN REILLY: I spoke with one of the January 6th prosecutors who was fired just yesterday, last night, and, you know, they were saying they stand by what they did.
