(Discern Report)—In a significant shake-up within the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), at least six senior leaders who were promoted under former Director Christopher Wray have been instructed to retire, resign, or face termination by Monday, according to sources familiar with the matter. This move continues a broader purge that started last week at the Justice Department, signaling a clear intent by the Trump administration to reshape the leadership of these key law enforcement agencies.
Transition officials from the Trump administration have been vocal about their plans to sideline leaders who were elevated by Wray, who was appointed by Trump himself but resigned early due to the President’s expressed intent to replace him.

This personnel overhaul comes at a time when many FBI agents, particularly those who worked on investigations related to the January 6 Capitol attack and Trump’s alleged mishandling of classified documents, are on edge about potential repercussions or career setbacks, mirroring the experiences of several career Justice Department attorneys.
In short, they’re scared and they should be with Kash Patel’s confirmation hearings for FBI Director going well.
On Inauguration Day, amidst heightened national security concerns, Paul Abbate, who was then serving as the acting director of the FBI following Wray’s resignation, also stepped down. His position was immediately filled by two senior agents from the FBI’s Newark and New York offices, appointed by the Trump transition team.
Tom Ferguson, a former agent and aide to Representative Jim Jordan, known for his critical stance against the FBI, has recently joined the FBI headquarters as a policy adviser, further illustrating the administration’s direction.
These changes reflect President Trump’s commitment to his campaign promise of dismantling the weaponization of the FBI. He promised to take down the Deep State and it starts with the Federal Bureau of Investigations.
The rapid reshuffling of leadership within the FBI underlines the new administration’s approach to ensuring the nation’s top law enforcement agency is going its job.

Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
