Summary
FBI agents involved in January 6 investigations are suing the Justice Department, citing retaliation under Trump’s leadership.
Two lawsuits, including a class action, claim Trump’s DOJ is compiling lists of agents for potential punitive action. Agents cite First Amendment and Privacy Act violations, fearing demotions, job denials, or exposure to Trump’s supporters.
The FBI Agents Association has also filed suit.
Trump’s nominee for FBI director, Kash Patel, has allegedly compiled an “enemies list,” raising concerns about political purges and protection of Trump loyalists.
Only the ones that get fired and are no longer fbi-cops will actually learn that though
