FBI fires agents seen kneeling in iconic photo during George Floyd protests five years ago

The FBI has terminated up to 20 agents, including approximately 15 involved in a 2020 incident where agents knelt with George Floyd protesters. This follows a review by the FBI’s inspection division. The FBI Agents Association criticized the dismissals, calling them a violation of due process and harmful to the bureau's integrity. The firings appear to be part of a broader initiative by new leadership to address "woke" or politicized elements within the agency.
