Several FBI employees have accused the bureau of politicization in congressional testimony, a day after the agency announced two of them had seen their security clearances revoked over concerns about how their views of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack affected their work.
The three men who described themselves as whistleblowers alleged overreach and retaliation by the FBI in front of a House panel on what Republicans assert is the "weaponization" of government against conservatives.
The two former employees had been stripped of security clearances after either attending the Capitol riot on Jan. 6 or espousing alternate theories about the attack.
