Multiple whistleblowers from within the FBI will testify Thursday against the agency's leadership, describing what they've characterized as abuses of power.
The House Judiciary's Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government is preparing to host suspended FBI special agents Garret O'Boyle and Steve Friend.
Former FBI State Operations Specialist Marcus Allen and Tristan Leavitt, president of the pro-whistleblower group Empower Oversight, are also slated to attend the hearing, according to a news release from the judiciary panel.
The hearing, organized by Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, will reportedly dig into accusations that the FBI has harassed conservatives and inflated domestic terrorism statistics.
In a late development on Wednesday, the FBI moved to revoke the security clearances of three agents who either took part in the Capitol breach or later voiced views on it that raised questions about their "allegiance to the United States, the New York Times reported.
Two of them are slated to testify on Thursday -- Friend and Allen -- with the bureau letter about the stripped clearances to congressional leaders coming just a day ahead of that hearing.
The third man named in the letter was Brett Gloss. All three have been suspended by the FBI as the bureau reviews their cases, the Times said.
