URGENT: FBI Agents Fired, Including Those Who Kneeld During 2020 Protests in Shocking Mass Dismissal.

BREAKING NEWS: FBI Agents Fired in Mass Dismissal, Including Those Who Kneeld During 2020 Protests At least a dozen FBI agents have been fired, including some who were photographed kneeling during racial justice protests in Washington, D.C. in June 2020. The firings occurred on Friday, according to the FBI Agents Association and news reports. The affected agents had been sent by President Trump and then-Attorney General Bill Barr to deter protesters from vandalizing federal property in Washington, D.C. in June 2020. Some of these agents were reassigned earlier this year, widely seen as demotions, The Washington Post reported. This move comes after a 2024 review by the DOJ watchdog found that FBI agents with the Washington Field Office expressed confusion over Barr's requests and said they were not trained on or equipped to handle the situation. The firings have sparked immediate concern among law enforcement officials and civil rights groups. The FBI Agents Association has confirmed the dismissals, but details are still emerging.
