Three senior FBI officials, including the head of the Washington bureau, have been fired by the Trump administration amid pressure from MAGA supporters. They were involved in the investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol assault. The purges are seen as a sign of politicization of the agency, and Democrats are calling for congressional intervention, calling the actions alarming and harmful to national security. The FBI Agents Association has raised concerns about due process in the firings.
