The Department of Justice has finally fired Peter Carr — the longtime spokesman who served as the public mouthpiece for two of the most politically charged anti-Trump crusades in recent history: the Robert Mueller and Jack Smith investigations.
Carr, who has been embedded within the DOJ since 2007, was abruptly terminated Friday by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, a Trump ally and former defense attorney who successfully represented the president against politically motivated charges in New York.
In a farewell email to reporters obtained by NBC News, Carr wrote: “I have just been informed by the DAG that I have been let go. It’s been a pleasure working with all of you.”
Peter Carr served as a Senior Communications Advisor at the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), handling public affairs and media relations.
His role was to oversee communications for various DOJ components, including the Criminal Division.

As Robert Mueller’s spokesman, Carr spun the narrative that kept the mainstream media salivating for years — a narrative that resulted in zero charges against President Trump for collusion or obstruction.
On August 1, 2023, Jack Smith announced four charges against former President Donald Trump as part of his investigation into the 2020 election.
Carr later played a central PR role for Special Counsel Jack Smith, whose own sham investigations into Trump were riddled with bias, legal overreach, and political timing.
Smith hit Trump with charges over both the 2020 election aftermath and classified documents at Mar-a-Lago — only to see both cases collapsed and dismissed in late 2024 after Trump’s historic comeback win.
