According to a whistleblower, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is revoking the security clearances of agents who lean conservative or who decided not to take the COVID shot.
Per the FBI whistleblower, the Bureau’s “Security Division has been suspending or revoking clearances for employees whose political affiliation or COVID-19 vaccination status are suspect,” The New York Post reported Tuesday.
The Post identified the whistleblower as “a registered Democrat” who had once worked in the Security Division.
The agent disclosed that “if an FBI employee fit a certain profile as a political conservative, they were viewed [by the Security Division] as security concerns and unworthy to work at the FBI.”
The Post’s report highlighted the example of former FBI Staff Operations Specialist (SOS) Marcus Allen, who “was suspended without pay for more than two years after he told supervisors he would not take the COVID-19 vaccine shot.”

the [FBI] officials ignored “possibly exculpatory information” and overruled investigators who “concluded SOS Allen’s ‘Allegiance to the United States’ was not in question and that the suspension of his security clearance was not warranted.”
Former FBI agent and CatholicVote 2023 Hero of the Year Kyle Seraphin wrote on X (formerly Twitter) that the “political purge in federal, state, and local agencies should actually shock Americans.”
Seraphin noted that this “purge” of conservatives should especially surprise “those on the Left who claim to be liberal and want to ensure civil liberties.”
“In the professions trained for violence, a conservative bend is statistically dominant,” he added, replying to the post of a former New York Police Department (NYPD) officer who said he was “purged” for supporting former President Donald Trump.
Garret O’Boyle – like Seraphin, an indefinitely suspended former FBI agent – also took to X to voice concern about the Biden administration’s apparent weaponization of intelligence offices against conservatives.
“About a year and a half ago [House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-OH] mentioned a sampling of protected disclosures made by [FBI] Whistleblowers,” O’Boyle wrote.
“They’re all true,” he added. “Always were true. More whistleblowers have come out since then and the latest is a registered [Democrat] who saw the retaliation, raised issue with it and then was retaliated against too.”
“Not sure how anyone from any ‘side’ can continue to claim that the [FBI], and government as a whole, isn’t weaponized,” the whistleblower emphasized.
