FBI officials have submitted a list of thousands of employees who worked on investigations related to the January 6, 2021, US Capitol riot to the Justice Department, as per sources familiar with the situation. This demand has raised concerns among FBI employees who fear it may lead to terminations by the Trump administration.
Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove issued a memo titled 'Terminations' on Friday, instructing FBI officials to provide the names of thousands of agents and analysts by a noon deadline on Tuesday. The memo followed the firing of eight senior FBI officials overseeing various investigations.
