David Maltinsky, a 16-year veteran, says in lawsuit agency retaliated against him for engaging in protected speech
A longtime FBI employee has filed a lawsuit alleging that he was fired for displaying a Pride flag at his desk, naming the FBI director, Kash Patel, the justice department and the attorney general, Pam Bondi, as defendants.
According to David Maltinsky, an intelligence specialist who had served with the bureau for 16 years, his wrongful termination earlier this year was “unconstitutional and politically motivated”.
The lawsuit claims the FBI violated Maltinsky’s first amendment rights and took retaliatory action against him for engaging in protected speech. Maltinsky is seeking a court order to restore his job.
Yeah, they are worse. They are the guys infiltrating and destroying socialist and communist parties, propping up union-busting corpos, and defending big capitalists’ property.
Do countries need national/federal police? Yes. But FBI is doing so much heinous shit (as does every other policing institution in the US) that everyone working for them is a class traitor even if by willful association.
