Judge bars firing of intelligence officers working on DEI issues

A federal judge has blocked the firing of 11 CIA employees involved in diversity, equity, inclusion, and access programs for at least five days, according to U.S. District Judge Anthony Trenga.
The delay results from a lawsuit by former CIA officer Kevin Carroll, who stated the employees had not received negative reviews.
The employees were among 51 placed on leave after President Donald Trump issued an executive order ending similar programs across the government.
Kevin Sullivan, the attorney representing the CIA employees, contended that the firings violated CIA procedures and constitutional rights.
