About 300 FBI agents who worked mostly on national security matters have left the bureau since President Donald Trump began his second term, including 45 who were fired, according to an internal count by current and former FBI employees.

Most of those agents hunted terrorists and spies, and at least 50 of them were in leadership roles. Current and former officials say it’s a talent drain without precedent in modern bureau history, and one that leaves the nation vulnerable amid heightened terrorism threats due to the Iran war and a relentless Chinese espionage campaign — which current FBI leadership rarely discusses.

Lots of agents fired because they participated in the criminal investigation of trump. Lots of others quit because they were reassigned to immigration duty and local law enforcement.

It was a highly coordinated banana republic style witch hunt Alan, carried out by deranged lefties that knew(correctly) that if Trump was allowed to run he would wipe the floor with the lefts DEI candidate.

Fortunately democracy was saved. Big failure of Trump not to bang up all the lawfarists.

However you characterize the investigation of trump, the fact is that these FBI agents were assigned to the task. They weren't volunteers. Can you ignore the fact that a lot of these losses are do not to the Trump investigation but to the fact that agents encounter intelligence quit rather than hunt for hunt for legal immigrants or patrol the streets of Washington DC
