Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove reassured FBI agents that those who ethically carried out their duties in the Jan. 6 investigations are not at risk of being fired. This statement comes amid concerns of a potential purge of agents deemed disloyal to the Trump administration. Bove's earlier memo indicated a crackdown on senior officials and those who acted with partisan intent. Amid these tensions, the FBI provided the Justice Department with information about employees involved in the Jan. 6 cases, although without identifying names, heightening anxiety within the bureau.
A top Justice Department official stated that FBI agents who acted ethically during Jan. 6 investigations are safe from termination amid ongoing turmoil.
Emil Bove clarified that only those who displayed corrupt intent or defied leadership orders could risk termination following investigations into the Capitol riot.
