Have you taken your place on the wall?

James Dennehy, the New York field office’s now former assistant director in charge, was ordered to send in his resignation papers on Friday or else be fired, The Washington Times has learned. …

Last month, Mr. Dennehy urged the New York field office not to comply after Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove ordered then Acting FBI Director Brian Driscoll to produce a list of bureau employees who worked on criminal cases related to the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

“Today, we find ourselves in the middle of a battle of our own, as good people are being walked out of the FBI and others are being targeted because they did their jobs in accordance with the law and FBI policy,” Mr. Dennehy wrote to employees at the field office. “Time for me to dig in.” …

The New York FBI has been under scrutiny in the recent days, as Attorney General Pam Bondi sent a letter to FBI Director Kash Patel demanding to know why thousands of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein were withheld from her by the bureau’s office there.
