Ex-prosecutor sues White House, claiming political firing after right-wing backlash.

Former Justice Department prosecutor Adam Schleifer is suing the White House, alleging he was fired for partisan reasons after a right-wing activist called for his removal online. Schleifer claims the firing was in retaliation for his past political speech and seeks reinstatement and back pay. This case is unusual as Schleifer's termination was ordered by the White House, not departmental leadership, challenging typical civil service protections against political firings.
