The FBI reassigned many agents that were photographed kneeling during a 2020 protest after the death of George Floyd. The reassignments are part of President Donald Trump’s efforts to remove “woke” and other politicized elements from within America’s intelligence community. One former FBI official told CNN the reassignments raise concern the bureau bypassed its typical disciplinary process, which can reportedly take months or more than a year to review incidents. “This notion that the bureau would go after these people, it’s just disgusting,” the former official explained. CNN continued:

A former FBI analyst who resigned over the Trump administration and boasted about working on January 6 cases is running for Congress as a Democrat. John Sullivan is challenging New York Republican Rep. Michael Lawler for New York’s 17th Congressional District — and he’s wasted no time in blasting the Trump administration and invoking January 6. Sullivan worked in the bureau for almost 17 years but resigned in April over the Trump administration, according to his Substack Since leaving the bureau, he’s slammed the Trump administration and Elon Musk. Sullivan claimed President Donald Trump and FBI Director Kash Patel pose...

The judge who has emerged as a top foe of Trump's deportation efforts previously let a well-known Trump-Russia collusion hoax proponent off the hook. But newly-declassified Crossfire Hurricane records show the FBI's Kevin Clinesmith was deeply involved in in the bogus Russiagate saga.. Convicted FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith — whom Judge James Boasberg gave a slap on the wrist for his crimes years before becoming a public foe of President Donald Trump’s deportation policies — was more deeply involved in the deeply flawed Crossfire Hurricane investigation than previously known. Clinesmith, who worked on both the FBI’s Hillary Clinton email investigation...

Rogue agents within the Federal Bureau of Investigation are reportedly chafing at being asked to participate in arresting illegal immigrants, a slight that’s leaving immigration agents “stranded” in the field without backup during dangerous raids. A report by “War Room” correspondent Natalie Winters describes how career bureaucrats are bucking calls from Director Kash Patel to jump on board with cross-agency task forces intent on removing dangerous undocumented criminals from America’s streets. According to FBI whistleblower Steve Friend, concern is growing about a cohort of “certain rogue agents” who appear to be making excuses for why their field offices are unavailable...

Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson 🚨Mike Benz says U.S. Intelligence Agencies KNEW AHEAD OF TIME That Ryan Routh Had Plans To Assassinate President Trump, He Was On Their Radar: "Routh was on their radar. He was specifically referred to DHS for investigation. Highly likely they knew Ryan Routh had this plan." 0:27 / 4:55 2:21 PM · Apr 15, 2025

You do not have to wade far into the recently declassified Crossfire Hurricane documents to be shocked. I had only read three pages of the FBI’s December 19, 2016 interview with the DoJ’s Bruce Ohr before learning just how early in the game the FBI brass knew that the Steele dossier was worthless. In the way of background, on July 31, 2016, the FBI launched its counterintelligence operation into the Trump campaign, codenamed “Crossfire Hurricane.” FBI agent Peter Strzok was assigned to head it up. If the goal was to cripple Trump regardless of the evidence, Strzok was the man...

Former National Security Agency Director Mike Rogers told FBI agents that the crux of a Pulitzer Prize award-winning Washington Post story on the Russian collusion hoax was “wrong," according to newly declassified documents obtained by Just the News. Admiral Rogers, who retired in 2018 after four years as National Security Agency chief and commander of U.S. Cyber Command, spoke with FBI agents and a key member of special counsel Robert Mueller’s team in June 2017, where he threw cold water on a May 2017 story by the Post titled, “Trump asked intelligence chiefs to push back against FBI collusion probe...

An internal FBI chat log newly obtained by the Committee shows the FBI deliberately withheld information about the FBI having Hunter Biden’s laptop and an ongoing criminal investigation involving the Biden family’s corruption: “do not discuss biden matter.”

BETHEL PARK, Pa. — It’s been almost nine months since a seemingly mild-mannered 20-year-old attempted to alter the course of history by trying to assassinate then-Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump at a rally in Butler. Sources told The Post the FBI has obstructed efforts to solve the mystery of why Thomas Matthew Crooks, who left no manifesto, did what he did. It’s left local law enforcement as well as Crooks’ former friends, classmates and teachers and even Elon Musk frustrated. Those who may know, Crooks’ parents Matthew and Mary, have refused all interviews so far and remain in their small,...

Former FBI assistant director Frank Figliuzzi said on Monday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Deadline” that those who voted for President Donald Trump should question whether they are American anymore. Figliuzzi said, “This Reince Priebus clip that you played, Nothing to see here, don’t worry, remain calm, he occasionally likes to take a grenade out and throw it on the floor to see what happens. I’ll tell you what happens when you play with a live grenade and toss it on the floor eventually it explodes. The only question for us is whether it’s going to explode back on Trump or explode...

What do we have here, a banana republic? According to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem: The FBI is so corrupt. We will work with any and every agency to stop leaks and prosecute these crooked deep state agents to the fullest extent of the law. https://t.co/HNW1ujf0Gd — Secretary Kristi Noem (@Sec_Noem) February 9, 2025Things like this, where the army fights the navy, are exactly what happen in a night-haunted tinpot dictatorship.If what Noem says is right, this is an amazing breach of professionalism at the FBI, leaking news of raids to the press in order to undermine another federal agency.It's...

Should Kash Patel secure Senate confirmation to lead the FBI, he will face the daunting task of subordinating a bureau of 13,000 agents with personnel actively begging Congress to intervene against the White House’s agenda and whose agents are suing the administration to block its implementation.When nominating Patel, then-President-elect Donald Trump praised him as the “one guy” who could “make the FBI great again.” Patel’s reputation as a Trump stalwart and vocal critic of the deep state’s career bureaucrats already had FBI agents warning of mass resignations should he enter the post. But now, some seem more inclined to work...

A poster on the FBI Reddit thread warned FBI leakers on evading DOGE and his team (see post below). It’s unclear if the poster is connected to the FBI or just trying to be helpful to any agent stupid enough to leak this carelessly. The Reddit poster also shared information on this link. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/remove-hidden-data-and-personal-information-by-inspecting-documents-presentations-or-workbooks-356b7b5d-77af-44fe-a07f-9aa4d085966f In other news, there are rumors online that the FBI plans a protest today and will walk off the job. The posts are drawing mockery after the way the FBI handled Antifa and Black Lives Matter compared with their handling of J6 protesters. People aren’t mentioning...

Florida Republican Sen. Ashley Moody detailed on Thursday the obstruction she faced when she tried to investigate the second assassination attempt against now-President Donald Trump. Moody recently served as attorney general of Florida until she was appointed to take the Senate seat vacated by now-Secretary of State Marco Rubio. In her last office, she took up the mantle of investigating the second attempted Trump assassination, which took place one Sunday morning in September at Trump International Golf Club in Florida while the then-Republican presidential nominee was hitting the links. She detailed the absurd levels of resistance to her investigation mounted...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -FBI employees were ordered on Sunday to answer a questionnaire about any work they may have done on criminal cases related to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, stoking fear about a fresh round of firings at the law enforcement agency. The list of questions in the memo, seen by Reuters, direct employees to give their job title, any role they played in the investigations into the Jan. 6 riot by supporters of President Donald Trump and whether they helped supervise such investigations.

Squads of FBI agents were escorted out of field offices in New York, Miami and Washington. Agents who were escorted from the Miami office were involved in the Mar-a-Lago documents case ... Everyone involved in that raid knew it was wrong ... We were just following orders ... Fire Driscoll immediately. File charges against him and prosecute him in the Miami courts. The next one will comply. Play by their rules. They set the precedent. ... If Mr Driscoll felt so strongly about not complying with a lawful command, he should have resigned his post. Instead, his “team” drove him...
