Yesterday, The Gateway Pundit reported on a claim by former FBI Agent Kyle Seraphin, a member of “The Suspendables,” that all of the Executive Assistant Directors (EADs) were to be terminated if they hadn’t resigned by Monday, Feb. 3rd.
There are six EADs in the FBI, according to Seraphin, and they are below the Director, Deputy Director and Associate Deputy Director.
Seraphin also said he was told by his sources that around 25 of the Special Agents in Charge were given the same ultimatum. This would account for almost half of the 55 FBI Field Offices around the country.
According to an email from acting Director Brian Driscoll and reviewed by The Gateway Pundit, each field office is required to submit a list of all personnel, current and former, who were involved in January 6th investigations/prosecutions by noon on Tuesday, February 4th.
The email reads:
“We understand there’s a lot of media reporting and rumors surrounding potential changes at the FBI. This includes reporting and rumors about actions very seriously impact our workforce. Consistent with our commitment to share information with you as we receive it, acting Deputy Director Kissane and I wanted to provide you with an update.
Late this afternoon, I received a memo from the acting Deputy Attorney General notifying me that eight senior FBI executives are to be terminated by specific dates, unless these employees have retired beforehand. I have been personally in touch with each of these impacted employees.
The memo also directs me to provide by noon on Tuesday, Feb. 4, the following:
‘All current and former FBI personnel assigned at any time to investigations and/or prosecutions relating to (1) events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021; and (2) United States v Haniyeh, et al. 24 Mag. 438 (S.D.N.Y).
These lists should include relevant supervisory personnel in FBI regional offices and field divisions, as well as at FBI headquarters.
For each employee included in the list, provide the current title, office to which the person is assigned, role in the investigation or prosecution, and date of last activity relating to the investigation or prosecution.
Upon timely receipt of the requested information, the Office of the Deputy Attorney General will commence a review process to determine whether any addition personnel actions are necessary.’
We understand that this request encompasses thousands of employees across the country who have supported these investigative efforts. I am one of those employees, as is acting Deputy Director Kissane.
As we’ve said since the moment we agreed to take on these roles, we are going to follow the law, follow FBI policy, and do what’s in the best interest of the workforce and the American people – always.
We will be back in touch with more information as soon as we can. In the meantime, stay safe, and take care of each other.

Here’s tonight’s email from Acting FBI Director Brian Driscoll (see photos)
When I was a new agent trainee at Quantico, our ethics instructor taught us that “…an FBI Agent’s greatest power isn’t in their ability to arrest or take a life, but in their ability to say ‘No.’”

The email starts out by acknowledging rumors in the media and confirms the reports that “eight senior FBI executives are to be terminated” unless they retire beforehand.
The Gateway Pundit had previously reported that it was six Executive Assistant Directors. Since there are only six of those positions, according to Seraphin, it is unclear who the other two executives are.
It could potentially be referring to Director Christopher Wray and former Deputy Director Paul Abbate, who both retired following President Trump’s inauguration.
The email calls for the consolidation of all of those involved in the January 6th investigations.
The Gateway Pundit has reported on numerous situations where Special Agents were pulled from violent crimes, including child sex trafficking, to instead pursue J6ers charged with misdemeanors.
Countless raids took place with full tactical teams and up-armored vehicles for those charged with misdemeanors and no prior arrests, often conducted in early morning hours and utilizing methods such as deploying flashbangs outside of homes, which has no tactical value.
However, interestingly, the email also calls for those involved in the investigations/prosecutions of anyone involved United States v Haniyeh.
This case was brought in September 2024 and charged Ismail Haniyeh and five other Hamas leaders with multiple terrorism-related offense.
The charges included conspiracy to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization resulting in death, conspiracy to kill U.S. nationals, and conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction.
Initially, the case was filed under seal on February 1, 2024 and unsealed on September 3, 2024.
Ismail Haniyeh is the former political leader of Hamas that was reportedly killed in July 2024 by Israeli forces.
Two other defendants, Mohammed Deif and Marwan Issa, are also reportedly deceased, both killed by Israeli forces.
