The FBI needs to be forthcoming, open and honest.

While all the details of the back and forth should be thoroughly
reviewed and reported on by the IG.....the concept that the FBI can
revoke security clearance and suspend pay while the investigation is
ongoing while prohibiting the agent from taking another job to live
for 14 months is beyond absurd....it's borderline criminal. Who does
this if not to be "punitive". I'll bet lump summing back pay has a
fat tax penalty with it too.

horribly formatted that the useful information is all but hidden. Things like the names of the allegedly singled-out agents.
I don't believe there was a profiling of Marine FBI agents for Trumpism
as such.
I will look elsewhere...okay, reader view to the rescue:
“It is wholly irresponsible of The Washington Times, and this reporter,
to include outrageous and demonstrably false allegations that the FBI singled out former military employees. It is offensive that The
Washington Times chose to publish, on Veteran’s Day, such baseless, unsubstantiated claims and include the names of FBI employees, one of
which is a veteran. The FBI has not and will not retaliate against individuals who make protected whistleblower disclosures. We do not
target or take adverse action against employees for exercising their
First Amendment rights or for their political views. The FBI is proud to have many veterans in our workforce and we thank all veterans for their service,” the FBI said.

Blah....blah....and blah.
The aren't denying they have an agent suspended without pay for 14 monthsHe's not prohibited from taking money from Kash Patel.
and remains prohibited from seeking other employment.
That sure reeks of an absurdly slow moving bureaucracy as punishment.
The FBI has a duty to either terminate or reinstate him a timely manner.

Another indicator the FBI wants no part of discovery or cross examination under oath in a courtroom. Why?
