The Justice Department on Wednesday fired the top national security prosecutor in the Eastern District of Virginia.
Michael Ben’Ary was fired after investigative reporter Julie Kelly publicly called him out as a top advisor to Lisa Monaco.
Recall that Lisa Monaco was an Obama-Biden partisan hack who targeted Trump and threatened to indict top Republicans for January 6.
Monaco was part of Obama’s secret team that met in the White House basement in 2016 to discuss how to set up Donald Trump in their Trump-Russia collusion sham.
President Trump revoked Lisa Monaco’s security clearance earlier this year.
“The DoJ fired the top national security prosecutor in the Eastern District of Virginia a few hours after MAGA activist Julie Kelly denounced him on X because he has been detailed to work for the deputy attorney general in the last administration,” MSNBC’s Ken Dilanian said on Wednesday evening.

Today’s firing had nothing to do with the Comey’s case according to MSNBC.
To be clear, this fired national security prosecutor had nothing to do with the Comey case, multiple people have told me. https://t.co/CEpOIRh7qQ

Julie Kelly shot back at Ken Dilanian after he blamed her for the firing.
Oh Fusion Ken. I’m not just a “MAGA activist,” I’m a reporter doing the f*cking job you establishment DOJ sycophants refuse to do. Now dig deeper into the Democratic ties to others in the EDVA, which tried to sabotage the Comey indictment. https://t.co/hC7UpQFkbn

Michael Ben’Ary’s firing follows President Trump’s firing of Erik Siebert as the US Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia because he refused to bring charges against Letitia James, Comey, Schiff, and others.
Shortly after Siebert’s firing, Lindsey Halligan, the new Acting US Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, indicted former FBI Director James Comey.
Following Comey’s indictment, Comey’s son-in-law resigned from the Eastern District of Virginia, and it was reported that many more resignations from the DOJ were imminent.
