FBI director fires trainee agent for displaying Pride flag

FBI director Kash Patel has reportedly fired an agent for displaying a Pride flag at his desk. Insiders have claimed that the staff member, who was training at the academy in Quantico, Virginia, was handed an immediate-dismissal notice last week. He had previously worked as an FBI support specialist in Los Angeles. Two FBI veterans told CNN that the trainee had won awards for his service. The dismissal letter, signed by Patel, did not specifically mention the Pride flag but said the agent was being dismissed for past "poor judgment" and "inappropriate display of political signage" on his desk in LA.
