Jason Reding Quinones, the South Florida-based U.S. attorney tasked with leading a sweeping and controversial conspiracy probe targeting President Donald Trump's foes, has resigned from the Justice Department, Attorney General Todd Blanche announced Friday.

Blanche also announced that John Eisenberg, the top official overseeing the Justice Department's National Security Division, had resigned from the department.

Reding Quinones and Eisenberg are the second and third high-level DOJ official to depart the Trump administration following Democrats' historic midterm wins, following Thursday's resignation by Trump ally Harmeet Dhillon from the department's Civil Rights Division.
