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.

The Southern Poverty Law Center long ago abandoned civil rights work and turned into a partisan smear machine, Patel wrote. He reserved criticism for the centre's interactive hate map, which identifies groups associated with hate and antigovernment activity and maps their bases of operation. Their so-called hate map' has been used to defame mainstream Americans and even inspired violence. That disgraceful record makes them unfit for any FBI partnership, Patel said.

The complaint retells stories already reported in the press, such as how the Trump Administration intended to hire Robert Kissane as interim FBI Director but fucked up the announcement, so Driscoll served instead.

This is not the kind of thing that any FBI director has ever done. FBI directors don't gratuitously point towards search warrants and the people who are the targets of those warrants in any sort of way that could possibly be interpreted as grandstanding and nonsensical, as this one certainly suggests.
