Driscoll refuses order to list FBI employees involved in Jan. 6 cases amid ouster of agency leaders
Washington Times ^ | 2/2/25 | Kerry Pickett

Posted on 02/02/2025 12:37:23 PM PST by hardspunned

Acting FBI Director Brian Driscoll is on shaky ground with Department of Justice leaders for refusing to deliver the names of bureau employees involved in Jan. 6 cases and other Trump investigations. President Trump tapped Mr. Driscoll, an FBI veteran, to lead the bureau temporarily while his nominee for director, Kash Patel, goes through the Senate confirmation process. But questions remain over whether Mr. Driscoll can stay in the job before Mr. Patel is confirmed and sworn in. Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove on Friday ordered Mr. Driscoll to compile a list of all current and former FBI employees assigned “at any time” to the investigation of the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol for review “to determine whether any additional personnel actions are necessary.”

“These lists should include relevant supervisory personnel in FBI regional offices and field divisions, as well as at FBI Headquarters,” read the memo instructed the acting director. “We understand that this request encompasses thousands of employees across the country who have supported these investigative efforts,” Mr. Driscoll wrote in a response. “I am one of those employees.”

Mr. Driscoll sent an email late Friday to all FBI employees that included a DOJ order to fire eight FBI executives. In his email, Mr. Driscoll expressed his reluctance to comply with the Justice Department’s first request to identify employees who worked on Jan. 6 cases.

Say goodbye Brian, and don’t expect a job recommendation to follow.

Emil Bove is as aggressive with these traitors as Kash is. Bove, like Patel, is not obedient. He’s hot for action. He’s been raising hell for two weeks.

exactly.

The FBI, part of DoJ, is under the CABINET under the EXECUTIVE.

The President has given him a lawful order for release of data.

he has refused.

Insubordination calls for immediate removal.

I recommend being hauled out by his heels, incisors dragged on the asphalt parking lot, curb-stomped for “resisting,” and thrown into the drunk tank for 24 hours. US Marshalls would do just fine here.

Maybe even have NewsMax and/or OAN camera crews on hand in advance.

Nothing the dementiacrats would do differently.
