Several senior FBI officials, including the directors of the bureau’s Washington and Miami field offices, were escorted out of their offices on Friday after being fired by the Trump Department of Justice. Several prosecutors who worked on the politicized investigations into President Trump and the January 6 Capitol protests were also terminated.

Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove sent a memo to the acting FBI director Friday evening directing him to terminate eight senior bureau employees effective immediately. Acting Director Brian Driscoll was further instructed to identify all current and former FBI employees who worked on January 6 cases for a formal review.

In the memo titled “Terminations,” which was obtained by Fox News, Bove laid out that the “subversive” employees cannot be trusted to carry out President Trump’s agenda. “This memorandum sets forth a series of directives, authorized by the Acting Attorney General, regarding personnel matters to be addressed at the Federal Bureau of Investigation,” Bove wrote.

The deputy attorney general then instructed Driscoll to fire eight employees by 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time on Monday, February 3. “I do not believe that the current leadership of the Justice Department can trust these FBI employees to assist in implementing the President’s agenda faithfully,” Bove, a former defense lawyer, wrote in the memo.

Smokin Joe:
I believe, from the political weaponization of the agency in the recent past, that Trump is justified in his lack of faith that certain people in the FBI would either slow walk or actively hinder investigations, especially in view of the J6 persecutions and subsequent attempts to portray Trump as some sort of "insurrection" leader. A considerable amount of material had to be suppressed or ignored in order to paint Trump in the worst light and it was done out of political ideology, not a true and complete finding of fact.

Fishrrman:
Fire them ALL.

Declare an "FBI holiday" and close the offices for 60 days, while EVERY existing employee is evaluated.

Then offer jobs and positions back to those who are qualified.

Works for me.
