President Trump fired the head of the FBI Washington Field Office, according to NBC News reporter Ken Dilanian.
David Sundberg is the highest ranking FBI official to be fired in Trump’s second term. Trump fired FBI Director James Comey during his first term.
Sundberg oversaw the January 6 investigation and the investigation into the so-called DNC pipe bomber.
According to NBC’s Ken Dilanian, the purge is much larger than originally reported and includes more than 20 heads of FBI Field Offices.
NBC News reported:
David Sundberg, the assistant director in charge of the FBI Washington Field Office, was notified Thursday that he was going to lose his job and is preparing to leave the bureau, according to two senior law enforcement sources — the latest step in an unprecedented purge of top executives at FBI headquarters as well as leadership in FBI field offices across the country.
Sundberg is the highest-ranking field agent so far to be fired from the FBI in Trump’s second term.
Sundberg, who joined the FBI in 2002, was put in charge of the Washington Field Office by then-FBI Director Christopher Wray in December 2022. It is one of the highest-profile positions an agent can achieve in the field at the FBI.
Special agents from the Washington Field Office were heavily involved in former Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigations of now-President Donald Trump, as well as the sprawling investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol that resulted in criminal charges against hundreds.

Wonderful!! Now replace them with true qualified Americans who will not weaponize the agency against other citizens!
It would have been better to keep the FIBBERS onboard for a bit, waterboard them and then summarily fire.
I would say there is not a criminal on the planet that believes they will get caught.
Raid must be scheduled at 4 AM with armed personnel toting AK-47’s
And goes through his wife’s underwear drawer.

Sundberg should have been a whistleblower, not a go-along to get along guy.
Like a rat, he must not be allowed to leave the agency.
Put him in charge of cleaning toilets, but make sure he is still a sworn LEO.
That way, he can be ordered to answer questions; no such thing as the fifth for LEO’s under investigation by their agency.
If criminal activity can be proven to have occurred ‘under color of law’, he can then be fired with NO Pension.
This Trump fellow, he sure seems to have learned from last time!
How can he restore a quality to the FBI that never existed? They’ve always been a bunch of scumbags.
Yes. I think that both Strzok and Page are gone from their jobs. Not sure. But they still can be arrested for election interference.
OK... lets be honest. WHEN has the FBI really EVER been an org people can trust????
I like the sound of that.
When anyone complains, I point out that Billy Jeff Clinton fired every US Attorney in all 57 States. Not a peep from the Drive-By Media.
I wouldn’t trust an empty box with an FBI sign on it.
Never thought I’d ever say this, but, “Scalp ‘Em!”
Lurch, is that you?
