The FBI has distributed detailed questionnaires to about 4,000 employees regarding their roles in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot investigations. This directive follows a Justice Department order for a review of these employees as part of a backlash against the agency's involvement in politically charged cases. The FBI Agents Association expressed concerns over potential reprisals, emphasizing that employees should not be viewed as having engaged in misconduct for performing their duties. Critics, including lawmakers, condemned the move as retaliation while some GOP members supported the dismissals.
