So he’s firing them out of revenge.
Typical dickless wonder Donald Trump
They might have been fired. But they should be commended for patriotism. God bless you America. You will come good again. It will take time.
They were doing what they were told to do. Now where does that leave all the MAGA who were told what to do?
Stop censoring the Charlie Kirk story you fascists.
>“Patel explained that he had to fire the people his superiors told him to fire, because his ability to keep his own job depended on the removal of the agents who worked on cases involving the president,” the complaint says. Patel explained that there was nothing he or Driscoll could do to stop these or any other firings, because “the FBI tried to put the president in jail and he hasn’t forgotten it”.
>The complaint also alleges Emil Bove, a staunch Trump ally and former top justice department official, asked Driscoll to compile a list of agents who worked on the investigation into the [January 6 attack](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/us-capitol-breach) on the US capitol. When Driscoll said that the mass firing of those agents would not comply with FBI protocol and endanger national security, Bove said they would be referred to the justice department for a misconduct review.
>Bove also told Driscoll, the complaint says, that he received pressure from White House aide Stephen Miller to fire agents en masse at the FBI.
>Bove also expressed his displeasure that he was being depicted in videos that appeared to be created by FBI employees depicting him as the [Batman villain Bane](https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Bane_(DC)) while Driscoll was portrayed as Batman. “Driscoll responded that he did not make the video, nor could he control unknown individuals’ feelings or expressions of said feelings,” the complaint says.
>The firings of the three men was one of the most brazen examples of how Trump is politicizing and weaponizing law enforcement to target his political rivals.
>“Driscoll, Jensen, and Evans were the targets of defendants’ retribution for their refusals to politicize the FBI, and they seek to vindicate their constitutional and legal rights,” the complaint says.
>Driscoll was fired after he opposed the firing of Christopher Meyer, an agent who had been wrongly accused of being involved in the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago.
>“Driscoll stated that summarily firing Meyer would be illegal based on his military veteran status and would also violate all established FBI policies for adverse actions against personnel,” the complaint says. “Patel responded that Meyer would be fired by Friday, August 8, 2025, and that there was nothing either Patel or Driscoll could say or do that would stop it.”
>“Patel acknowledged that the FBI would be sued and would lose in court,” the complaint says.
This is absolutely corrupt, it in and of itself is grounds to impeach Trump. We know that will never happen but we are watching law enforcement turned into Trump’s own secret police. The violations of people’s rights and frivolous criminal charges will continue and escalate. We cannot trust anything that the FBI or the DOJ says, any evidence they provide, they are now completely illegitimate Trump entities.
I hope these guys win and awarded millions of dollars. They did their jobs and investigated Trump for the numerous felonies he committed. They did nothing wrong.
There is going to be a lot of wrongful termination lawsuits and it likely the administration will lose most of them. It will end up costing quite a bit.
Good luck with that. The crooked DOJ and SCOTUS will never let that happen
I’m sure there will be punishments….
Kash has double digit IQ, he is a seat filler and does what he is told. He wanted power, now he has it
They were fired for doing their job ? Following orders ?
WhaT a sUrPRise!
“I was just following orders” is a well known defense that works 😂
Typical dictator actions.
TL:DR version of Kash Patel’s response: „I wanted to keep the high profile job that I am blatantly unqualified for so that I can remain relevant and I am also scared shitless of Trump so I did whatever he asked to do even though it meant that I fucked-over many, many qualified and dedicated FBI agents but none of that is my fault. Oh look, a squirrel!!“
Even the ones flagging trump in the Epstein files? All 1000 of them?
This was explicitly the idea. They literally published 900 pages of Project 2025 years ago. You can read this right now.
It all stems from that edgelord Curtis Yarvin’s concept of RAGE – Retire All Government Employees.
Trump plays VENGEANCE POLITICS and should be locked up for pedophilia
Not being snarky – does Kash officially have a lazy eye?
Or does he just make goofy faces constantly?
Catch 22 – either revenge firings are unconstitutional or the next Dem president will be able to fire all the Repub loyalist
Have you REALLY looked at Kash? He looks like he’s just taken at least 6 Speed pills or just done some Cocaine!🤔😂
If they know Trump is going to pardon them so they are committing crimes. If part of the payment for their crimes is a pardon is that pardon legal?
Roberts in a few months: „It’s legal for justice department officials to obstruct justice.“
My hands are tied. I’m only the *looks at name plate* FBI director…
