So it seems Kash is weeding out those who aren't bootlickers. I see no other reason they should be fired.

Senior Agent Who Helped Oversee F.B.I.’s Response to Jan. 6 Is Fired (Gift Article)

Deepening its purge, the bureau forced out Steven Jensen, whose ascent had angered Trump supporters, and Brian Driscoll, the acting director in the early chaotic days of the administration.

There's another guy they moved to Vegas then fired, but he was doing nasty stuff (he was involved with the Covid shot exemption, heinous).

This is how you take over a government. Fire anyone not 100% loyal to the president, and in some cases, Kash, Bondi, Rubio, etc. It has to be loyalty from top to bottom.

They when all of your loyal people are in place, there is no one to stop you. You do whatever you want, the courts are only a minor hindrance until things get to SCOTUS. They are in Trump's back pocket.

Not sure we're going to make it until the midterms.

People who are working in any particular government agency should NOT be there to "stop you". If that's their mission, they need to be given the boot.

People within government who work against the administration is the definition of corruption.

If the administration is a criminal one, yes, they should be stopped.

Your orange Jesus is the most corrupt individual there is!
 
"I was only following orders". That excuse can work for the low-level worker but the ones giving the orders must be accountable for their actions. Common sense should have told them that these are patriots who have every right to protest especially in light of all the BLM BS we not only allowed but also encouraged.
 


From
@SOCXFBI
:Message from the President

I am deeply concerned by reports of FBI agents and senior managers being
fired or forced to resign without explanation -- as are the nearly 9,000
former agents I represent. The FBI must remain an independent law
enforcement agency that is protected from political interference. This
principle comes from the oath every agent takes to protect the American
people and uphold the Constitution and the rule of law. FBI Special Agents
are trained to treat all defendants with due process throughout the
investigative process and during any subsequent prosecution. Federal law
protects FBI employees from being dismissed without due process, and that
standard must be followed every time and with every employee.

We recognize that our country is in a time of sharp political divisions and
competing realities. People may disagree strongly on policy, politics, and
priorities. The work of the FBI must be guided by facts and the law, not by
politics or pressure. Protecting the American public from terrorism, espionage,
cybercrime, violent crime, and other threats demands it.

When senior FBI employees, including a former Acting Director, former Executive
Assistant Directors, former Assistant Directors, and Special Agents in Charge,
as well as other employees, are removed without being provided due process,
it raises questions about the lawfulness of the action and the independence of the
Bureau. Political interference in personnel decisions can damage ongoing
investigations, weaken national security, and erode public trust.

Even when the country is red or blue, FBI agents must be red, white, and blue.
Their duty is to the Constitution, not to any political party. The badge belongs to
the American people, not to politics. Due process is not optional. It is enshrined in
the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments of the Constitution and it is essential to
fairness and to the trust that allows the FBI to do its job.

We call on FBI leadership to provide a written statement of cause to every employee
who has been removed or forced to retire in the past eight months and to commit
to doing the same in all future cases. We also call on FBI leadership to follow
established due process procedures for all personnel actions going forward. Without
such commitment to following established procedures, confidence in the FBI will
continue to suffer.

Michael Clark, President, Society of Former Special Agents of the FBI

No, it's not. Not if the administration is breaking the laws or violating the constitution.

This particular administration has done more of that than all others combined.

Illegally suspending due process and deporting people to concentration camps, massive graft through bitcoin, accepting a gift from a foreign government that he intends to keep (the jet), the entire national security leadership communicating secret information over non-approved, non-secure channels, the whole mess with DOGE - it is the sole purview of Congress to create and fund/eliminate and defund programs, firing career civil servants en masse: those are just the illegal actions. There has been much much more that is harmful, especially firing people doing their jobs because facts are inconvenient. That is toxic to a reliable civil service.

You obviously object to Trump's actions, but none of what Trump or his administration has done is illegal.

His crime is investigating traitors. I can see why someone of your caliber would not like that.

These agents will get their job back and be able to sue. Patel is a moron.

You will never see the forest through the trees. Agents need to worry about the President’s personal opinion?
