Pardoned for assaulting police, Tennessee man wants pardon to cover his conviction for trying to kill FBI agents who investigated his Capitol riot actions.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department has agreed to refrain from publicly identifying any FBI agents whose conduct is under review as President Donald Trump’s administration examines the investigations into the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol by a mob of Trump supporters, according to a court filing Friday.

President Donald Trump's administration agreed on Friday not to publicly name FBI employees involved in investigations into the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, as the president said some would be fired.

President Donald Trump said he planned to fire “some” but not all of the FBI employees who were involved in the criminal prosecutions of his supporters in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday said he would fire some FBI agents who were involved in investigating the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

The FBI has provided the Justice Department with names of employees who worked on January 6-related cases after a new demand from the acting deputy attorney general, capping a weeklong back-and-forth between bureau leadership – who had sought to protect agent and staff identities – and the department.
