Driscoll, for his part, served as acting director of the FBI prior to the confirmation of FBI Director Kash Patel, and Jensen played a key role in the January 6 investigations.
Senior FBI officials told the agents in question that they needed to leave by Friday, with no specific reason given to them individually.


One individual with knowledge of the removals described it as “retribution.”
The FBI did not respond to Fox News’s request for comment.
