CNN — fBI officials have complied with demands to provide the Justice Department with details of thousands of employees who worked on investigations related to the January 6, 2021, US Capitol riot, according to people familiar with the situation.

The demand has caused consternation among FBI employees who fear it is meant to amass a list of personnel for possible termination by the Trump administration.

Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove, in a Friday memo with the subject line “Terminations,” had given FBI officials a noon deadline Tuesday to submit the details of thousands of agents and analysts. Bove previously ordered the firing of eight senior FBI officials, including those who oversaw cyber, national security and criminal investigations.

More than 5,000 employee details were submitted, including employee ID numbers, job titles and their role in the January 6 investigations, sources said, but not their names. There are more than 13,000 agents and 38,000 total FBI employees.

Meanwhile, officials dispatched by Elon Musk have been seen at FBI headquarters. Musk has headed up efforts by President Donald Trump’s newly formed Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE. . .

Emphasis added:

FBI employees, who for months have braced for massive changes with Trump’s election victory, have been surprised at attempts to punish agents and analysts who don’t have a choice on which cases they are assigned.

Bullshit - they ALL had a choice: To cave and be slaves to the beast, or to hoist themselves up by their own moral compass and quit. That they chose the former is all I need to know. I quit a job on moral grounds in 2005 - even though the job market sucked and it took me 5 months to land another one. To this day I know it was the right thing to do and I still have no regrets.

Fuck them - fire them all.
