I am a former FBI Special Agent and whistleblower who has spoken out about retaliation and misconduct within the FBI, particularly regarding the misuse of national security powers. My husband, an FBI Special Agent and U.S. Marine, faced severe retaliation after exposing violations of law and policy, leading to an ongoing legal battle. The FBI targeted me in attempt to pressure my husband into dropping his lawsuit.
I am sharing my story, promoting accountability, and advocating for reform within the Bureau. We must raise awareness about the lack of whistleblower and USERRA protections for FBI employees, the misuse of national security authorities, and the dangers of government overreach.

These Agents were recently purged from a politicized FBI over their deeply held personal beliefs
It sure would’ve been nice if they had our backs FOUR years ago
Maybe none of us would be in this mess

But why did it have to get to this point?
There was plenty of time to get behind those forced out of the FBI under the previous administration. I feel like everyone just looked the other way.

@RShillingburg1 It is so sad and exceptionally disappointing for people to question the small payouts to whistleblowers that don’t begin to cover the harm that was done.
@RShillingburg1 That is sad. Those employees gave up so much of their lives in support of the FBI. It’s a 24/7 job, not an easy 9-5 where you can turn off your phone for the night.
@KimforSenateVA Please consider strengthening whistleblower protections as a way of supporting your priority to eliminate fraud, waste, and inefficiency in government programs. You are right that this must be a priority.
@RShillingburg1 Old-school FBI management had a lot to improve upon. But do I think the old-school rule of trying to stay out of the news was a good one.
