Attorney General Todd Blanche praised Quiñones for his work tackling violent crime and transnational criminal organizations, but did not provide an explanation for his departure. Quiñones thanked President Trump for the opportunity and expressed gratitude for serving his country. His exit is the latest blow to the investigation, which is probing whether former intelligence officials under two Democratic administrations conspired to prevent Trump's election.",
