The FBI has asked the Justice Department’s office of the inspector general to withhold from Congress the names of three bureau employees found to have exchanged anti-Trump text messages, including from one attorney who worked on the special counsel’s investigation.
“We went to the FBI. The FBI raised a concern because they work on counterintelligence matters, and we are working with the committee to try and get the information you’ve asked for,” Michael Horowitz, the DOJ’s inspector general, testified to Congress on Tuesday.
“So the FBI does not want their names released?” Texas Rep. Ted Poe asked Horowitz.
“Correct,” the inspector general replied.

They should lose their jobs for the very reason stated; they are politically partisan and therefore cannot perform their jobs to protect the Constitution without malice.
Name them and hang them for their crimes.
To think that a government agency like the FBI can tell Congress what it can and can't do is outrageous.
Federal Bureau if Insubordination?
Somebody needs to be fired and fired soon.
