多名知情人士告诉CNN，曾在包括2020年大选在内的多起事务中为唐纳德·特朗普的法律团队工作的约瑟夫·迪杰诺瓦，将加入佛罗里达州南区的美国司法部。
一名司法部官员证实，迪杰诺瓦将负责针对前中央情报局局长约翰·布伦南的调查。据多名知情消息人士透露，他将在佛罗里达州皮尔斯堡担任司法部长顾问。
针对布伦南的调查聚焦于特朗普总统长期存在的政治不满之一——2017年的情报评估认定俄罗斯干预2016年美国总统大选以帮助他胜选。
迪杰诺瓦的新职位最先由华盛顿媒体《Just the News》报道。
布伦南自去年夏天以来一直处于刑事调查中。
在特朗普解雇前司法部长帕姆·邦迪后，司法部满足特朗普要求的紧迫性进一步提升——部分原因是对他希望提起的案件进展缓慢感到不满。
代理司法部长托德·布兰奇正在加大力度落实总统在司法部的首要任务，包括起诉其政治对手，以期在邦迪被解职后保住这一职位。
迪杰诺瓦上任的消息传出前，CNN周五曾报道，据了解此事的人士透露，司法部解雇了领导该调查的资深迈阿密联邦检察官，原因是她抵制了迅速对布伦南提起指控的压力。
迪杰诺瓦是华盛顿资深律师，在时任特别检察官罗伯特·米勒的俄罗斯干预大选调查期间，曾一度加入特朗普的法律团队。由于其妻子在该调查中为多名证人提供代理服务，他离开了正式辩护团队，但仍继续担任外部法律顾问。

他曾于1983年至1988年担任哥伦比亚特区联邦检察官。
据知情人士透露，美国检察官杰森·雷丁·基尼奥内斯去年秋天向司法部官员概述了一项计划，将在皮尔斯堡的大陪审团——也就是联邦法官艾琳·坎农所在的法院——展开广泛调查，以查清近十年前由前执法和情报官员策划、旨在针对特朗普的可能阴谋。
该阴谋的核心论调是，特朗普是一场阴谋的受害者，这场阴谋从2016年俄罗斯大选干预调查一直延伸到导致他面临指控的杰克·史密斯调查。
特朗普第一任期内提名的坎农，曾在2024年驳回了史密斯在其管辖法院对特朗普提起的机密文件处理不当指控。

Joseph diGenova, who has worked with Donald Trump’s legal team on a variety of matters, including the 2020 election, will be joining the Justice Department in the Southern District of Florida, multiple people familiar with the matter told CNN.
A Justice Department official confirms diGenova will work on the investigation into former CIA Director John Brennan. He will be counsel to the attorney general in Fort Pierce, Florida, according to multiple sources familiar.
The investigation into Brennan focuses on one of the president’s longest standing political grievances — the 2017 intelligence assessment that found Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election to help him.
DiGenova’s new role was first reported by Washington-based outlet Just the News.
Brennan has been under criminal investigation since last summer.
Satisfying Trump’s demands has taken on more urgency for the Justice Department after Trump fired former Attorney General Pam Bondi — in part because of dissatisfaction at the slow pace of the cases he wants brought.
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is upping his efforts to deliver on the president’s top Justice Department priorities, including prosecuting his political enemies, as he seeks to keep the job after Bondi’s ouster.
The news of diGenova’s role comes after CNN reported Friday that the Justice Department removed the career Miami federal prosecutor leading the investigation after she had resisted pressure to quickly bring charges against Brennan, according to people briefed on the matter.
DiGenova is a longtime Washington attorney and was at one point on Trump’s legal team during then-special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation. He departed the official defense team because his wife represented several witnesses in the probe but continued to serve as an outside legal adviser.

He had served as the US Attorney for the District of Columbia from 1983 to 1988.
US Attorney Jason Reding Quiñones outlined to Justice officials last fall plans to use a grand jury in Fort Pierce – the courthouse where federal Judge Aileen Cannon sits – to conduct a broad investigation into a possible conspiracy stretching nearly a decade by former law enforcement and intelligence officials to target Trump, according to people familiar with the matter.
The conspiracy focuses on the idea Trump was the victim of a plot that ranged from the 2016 Russia election interference investigation to the Jack Smith probe that resulted in charges against him.
Cannon, who Trump nominated in his first term, dismissed the classified document mishandling charges that Smith brought against Trump brought in her court in 2024.
This story was updated with additional details of the probe.
