Trump Begins Aggressive Purge at FBI

President Donald Trump’s push to reform the federal government is now picking up pace as his aggressive purge of top officials begins.

Trump’s deep state purge has now reached the FBI.

At least six top FBI officials have just been told to resign now or face termination.

The individuals affected were at the executive assistant director level or special agent in charge level, CNN reported.

They were promoted by former Director Christopher Wray.

Wray resigned before he could be fired when Trump took office.

Dozens of FBI agents who worked on the prosecutions against Trump are also facing termination, CNN reported.

A current FBI official complained to NBC News that the shakeup is “highly disruptive.”

However, the Trump administration would probably agree with this description.

Trump has repeatedly pledged to clean house at the FBI and turn the page on a dark era of weaponized government.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has already fired a dozen lawyers who worked with Special Counsel Jack Smith.

Those lawyers worked on the unsuccessful, and unprecedented, effort to prosecute Trump during his re-election campaign against former President Biden and, later, Vice President Kamala Harris.

The DOJ ordered an additional round of firings Friday, terminating over a dozen D.C. prosecutors who worked on January 6 cases.

Trump’s acting deputy U.S. Attorney General Emil Bove blasted “subversive” last-minute attempts by the Biden administration to make those jobs permanent.

“I will not tolerate subversive personnel actions by the previous Administration at any U.S. Attorney’s Office,” Bove declared.

“Too much is at stake.”

CNN reported Friday that dozens of FBI agents who worked on the Trump and January 6 cases are also facing termination.

The purge has rattled FBI insiders, who say individual agents have little control over their caseloads and in some instances were reluctant to move forward with the politically sensitive investigations.

Still, the FBI’s troubling interventions in politics – including the infamous raid of the president’s Florida home – have convinced many that a clean slate is needed to restore trust in the agency.

President Trump has been feuding with the FBI for years.

The feud began with the agency’s unprecedented surveillance of Trump’s 2016 campaign.

The spying campaign was based on spurious opposition research collected by Trump’s rival – twice-failed Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

The FBI’s public reputation was further tarnished by its handling of Hunter Biden’s laptop, the notorious raid of Mar-A-Lago, and efforts to combat so-called domestic terrorism that targeted conservative parents and traditional Catholics.

The news of Trump’s FBI purge was leaked Thursday as his nominee to lead the agency, Kash Patel, was grilled by Senate Democrats over his loyalty to the president.

Patel pledged to “de-politicize” the FBI and disavowed any plans to pursue retribution against Trump’s political enemies.

“I have no interest, no desire, and will not, if confirmed, go backward,” Patel said at his confirmation hearing.

“There will be no politicization at the FBI.

“There will be no retributive actions taken.”
