24 SACs/ADICs and all EADs are being fired/retiring to not be fired

All EADs for FBI were walked out yesterday.

And 9300 probationary employees will be fired next week.

All Special Agents involved in the Trump investigation are being terminated.

Trump is retaliating against the FBI and crippling one of the best departments in the DOJ. Men and women who have dedicated their lives to their country are being punished for doing their best to uphold the law.

Hey there, thanks for the post!

While I absolutely believe it, do you have a source for this info?

Why are all comments starting to show as folded/closed?

How do you fire (removal) career civil servants without using civil servant processes? What you "can"do is re-assign them to sit in a cube and lick stamps or relegate them to a bs position or transfer them. Those who are retirement eligible, most of the 15s/SES probably would probably go. This is not as easy as saying you're fired . They could re-assign the entire 7th floor but "fire them"? I don't think there are many Political Appointees at FBIHQ which could be fired. I'm not a BU Agent or former but this doesn't add up.

Mark my words - we will have another 9/11 before the end of the year. And the orange fucktard will blame it on DEI and Biden. Again.

What a child, this is horrifying news. This is the equivalent of shooting yourself in the foot....with a sawn off shotgun.

A fascist takeover. A replacement for loyalists for an authoritarian.

I just can't even with this bullshit anymore. I've know three year olds that were more mature (and smarter).

The far right absolutely does not want agents who uphold the law. They want agents who do what they are told.

He's going to hire a bunch of loyalists that the Heritage Foundation have screened. The FBI will be headed by a co-conspirator of "The Big Steal", heading a group of domestic terrorists who will help carry out Project 2025. If you aren't scared yet, you really should be. Shit is going down and they are using Hitlers playbook.

I guess that rest's my case of all the evidence of Trump trying to turn America into a so called communist state affiliated by Russian oligarchy system.

We are so fucked!
