FBI Investigating ‘Dishonest Leakers’ Accused Of Giving Media ‘False’ Info

The FBI has launched an investigation into “dishonest leakers” inside the bureau who have recently pushed “false information” to the media – leaks that FBI officials say has undermined the mission of the nation’s premiere law enforcement institution, Just the News has learned.

The internal investigation by the bureau comes weeks after Kash Patel, a longtime ally of President Donald Trump who held a number of national security positions during the first Trump Administration, took the reins as FBI director.

FBI sources told Just the News that the media leak investigation will be wide in scope and aggressive in finding those who have or will share what the sources characterized as misleading and inaccurate information with the press, with the sources saying the probe could include the seizure of phones, polygraph tests and criminal referrals.

“Director Patel’s FBI will not tolerate the dissemination of false information designed to both undermine the FBI’s mission and put our brave agents at security risk,” FBI spokesman Ben Williamson said. “Dishonest leakers will be identified and dealt with appropriately.”
