There has been a significant shake-up within the FBI as one of its top officials has been forced out.
NBC News reported Monday that James Dennehy, the head of the FBI’s New York office, threw in the towel just days after his office was revealed to have been hiding thousands of Epstein documents.
“Late Friday, I was informed that I needed to put my retirement papers in today, which I just did,” Dennehy wrote in an email obtained by NBC. “I was not given a reason for this decision.”
Two sources confirmed to NBC that Dennehy was given the choice between getting fired or resigning. He chose the latter.
She later announced that a key FBI official involved in withholding these critical documents “will not be working for us anymore.” Was it Dennehy?
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Attorney General Pam Bondi revealed that the FBI was withholding thousands of Epstein files. She ordered the FBI to provide the complete Epstein files by Friday morning, February 28, and directed an immediate investigation into the oversight.
Last Thursday’s much-hyped release of “The Epstein Files: Phase One” fell flat for many Americans hungry for the truth. The 120-page dump, handed over to a select group of MAGA influencers, was a heavily redacted dud—mostly rehashed information previously seen.
NBC News also noted that Dennehy previously wrote an email to his staff after the Trump Justice Department requested a list of employees who had worked criminal cases against the hundreds of Trump J6 supporters persecuted by the Biden regime.
As TGP readers know, then-acting FBI Director Brian Driscoll refused to hand over the names of the officials involved in the J6 and Trump investigations.
“Today, we find ourselves in the middle of a battle of our own as good people are being walked out of the FBI,” Dennehy wrote in the email. “And others are being targeted because they did their jobs in accordance with the law and FBI policy.”
“Time for me to dig in,” Dennehy added.
Now, it is time for the Epstein files to be fully released. No more excuses.
