Unlike any other @POTUS before, @realDonaldTrump faced @fbi retaliation and corruption first hand. He understood my testimony that, "the fbi will crush you" if you dare stand up for the truth. I'm looking forward to the President's administration rectifying this immense problem. https://t.co/5d5vBFmcr5

It has been two years since I testified with @tristanleavitt, @praywithmarcus, and @RealStevefriend. I had already been suspended for 8 months. It's now nearly 32. When will the retaliation against whistleblowers stop? Not sure how much more we can take. https://t.co/TFagcAg3qL

The speaker testifies about the weaponization of the FBI and DOJ against its own employees and the American people. He served in the Army in Iraq and Afghanistan, then as a police officer, and later as an FBI special agent. Despite receiving high performance reviews and being selected for specialized units, he has been smeared as a subpar employee after witnessing weaponization within the FBI. He states that too many in the FBI prioritize avoiding difficulty over upholding the Constitution, leading to an Orwellian atmosphere that silences dissent. He is speaking out despite the potential personal cost, including the loss of his job and family's home. He claims the FBI allowed him to accept orders to a new position, sell his family's home, and report to the new unit before suspending him on his first day, rendering his family homeless. He concludes that bad actors have begun running parts of the government, but he will never stop trying to serve the nation and protect the innocent.

Speaker 0: Chairman Jordan, members of the committee, thank you for addressing FBI malfeasance and allowing me to speak today. Aside from that point of gratitude, I'm sad, I'm disappointed, and I'm angry that I have to be here to testify about the weaponization of the FBI and DOJ. Weaponization against not only its own employees, but against those institutions and individuals that are supposed to protect the American people. I'm here today because even though I am wrongfully suspended from the FBI, I remain duty bound to the American people to play my small role in rectifying these issues. After all, I never swore an oath to the FBI. I swore an oath to the constitution. I served my nation and community my entire adult life, first in the United States Army, then as a police officer, and late lastly, as an FBI special agent. Shortly after high school, I joined the United States Army where I served in the infantry, and I was quickly promoted through the ranks. I deployed to both Iraq and Afghanistan in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. I served in the historic hundred and first Airborne Division. I received the combat infantryman's badge, which is awarded to those infantrymen who engage in ground combat with our nation's enemies. The army's official motto is this will defend. Along with numerous others, I volunteered to serve this nation, risking my life in combat to protect America and her values. I know some of the best men and women this country has to offer. They come from all backgrounds, races, and creeds. They helped mold me into the person I am today. Each was willing to sacrifice, and many did, to protect this great nation. It is our duty to honor their sacrifices by standing up for what is right regardless of the difficulty. After serving in the army, I became a police officer. Police officers like me are imperfect beings, but we strive to uphold the law and the constitution. People who go to work every day trying to make their communities better, yet who nonetheless are faced with budget cuts and calls for defunding as we continue spiraling away from law and order as a nation. While serving as a police officer, I finished my bachelor's degree graduating with honors in criminology and law studies. Shortly thereafter, I began the long road to becoming an FBI special agent, a position I once understood to be the pinnacle of law enforcement in a way to continue to serve this nation and protect and defend the constitution. During my four years as a special agent, I received the highest annual review an employee can receive. I volunteered for, tried out for, and was selected for an FBI SWAT team. I also volunteered for, tried out for, and was selected for a new unit the FBI created. I also received an award for my work on an anti abortion extremism case. I've been smeared as a malcontent and subpar FBI employee. This smear stands in stark contrast to my life in public service. This smear campaign, disgusting as it is, is unsurprising. Despite our oath to uphold the constitution, too many in the FBI aren't willing to sacrifice for the hard right over the easy wrong. They see what becomes of whistleblowers, how the FBI destroys their careers, suspends them under false pretenses, takes their security clearances and pay with no true options for real recourse or remedy. This is by design. It creates an Orwellian atmosphere that silences opposition and discussion. We know what is right to do, yet we too often refuse to do what is right because of the difficulty and suffering it incurs. I couldn't knowingly continue on this path silently without speaking out against the weaponization I witnessed, even if it meant losing my job, my career, my livelihood, my family's home, and now my anonymity. It's up to members of this committee, current and former FBI employees, and indeed all Americans to ensure that the weaponization of our own government against the people comes to an end no matter the personal cost. As James Madison prude prudently opined, in framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this. You must first enable a government to control the governed, and the next place, oblige it to control itself. The safeguards currently in place at the FBI are clearly inadequate and must be reworked to protect whistleblowers and others who are inappropriately targeted. The FBI can extract whatever they want from me. I'm willing to bear that burden. I've sworn to defend this country from enemies, both foreign and domestic, even if that means sacrificing my life. I've lived that oath out since first enlisting in the army, consistently saying, here am I. Send me. My oath, however, did not include sacrificing the hopes, dreams, and livelihood of my family, my strong, beautiful, and courageous wife, and our four sweet and beautiful daughters who have endured this process along with me. In weaponized fashion, the FBI allowed me to accept orders to a new position halfway across the country. They allowed us to sell my family's home. They ordered me to report to the new unit when our youngest daughter was two weeks old. Then on my first day on the new assignment, they suspended me, rendering my family homeless. They refused to release our goods, including our clothes, for weeks. All I wanted to do was serve my country by stopping bad guys and protecting the innocent. To my chagrin, bad guys have begun running parts of the government, making it difficult to continue to serve this nation and protect the innocent. But I, for one, will never stop trying, and I'll never forget my oath. Thank you.

The FBI's claims against me have always been false, as I've maintained from the beginning. What they've put me and my family through would be terrible even if true, but since they're not, it makes it even worse. Here we are, 30 months later, amidst this so-called "new FBI."

@GOBactual - Garret O'Boyle

The @fbi's claims against me have been false from the start. Just as I have asserted from the start. What they've done to me and my family would've been reprehensible even if they were true. Considering they weren't makes it that much worse. Yet here we sit, 30 months now, amidst "the new fbi" we keep hearing about.

🧵My whistleblower disclosures—ranging from exposing questionable COVID-19 mandates to highlighting politically motivated investigations—triggered a retaliatory suspension of my security clearance, undermining my constitutional right to report internal abuses.

@GOBactual - Garret O'Boyle

Why would any whistleblower ever come forward again? The executive branch does the wrongdoing, the legislative branch takes the protected disclosure, writes a letter, holds some hearings, and the judicial branch does nothing. Meanwhile I've been suspended w/o pay for over 2yrs.🙄 https://t.co/G6whxZGiLi

The speaker claims "they" wanted to make an example of Garrett O'Boyle and send a message, disregarding his six years of army service, including time with the 101st Airborne and selection for a special unit. According to the speaker, "they" suspended O'Boyle the day he arrived at his new job, preventing his family from accessing their belongings, to send a message. This allegedly occurred because O'Boyle reported the first major mistake of the administration as a whistleblower, specifically regarding the school board issue and the Biden administration's actions. The speaker states that the FBI investigated 25 parents reported via a snitch line but prosecuted none. O'Boyle came forward because he believed the federal snitch line was wrong. The speaker also alleges the FBI, via a memorandum from the Richmond field office, spied on Catholics who are pro-life and pro-family, placing people inside the church to spy on fellow citizens.

Speaker 0: They wanna send a message, don't they? Absolutely. They wanna make you an example, don't they? Yes. And they don't care. They they wanna send that message so hard, so strong, they don't care that you'd served 6 years in the army. Remember, the 101st airborne took enemy fire, was selected for a special new unit they were putting in Quantico. They wanted to send such a message that they said, we can get this guy. We can get this guy to be quiet. We can get everybody to be quiet. That's what they were doing, wasn't it? Yes, sir. Especially since I just had a a baby who was 2 weeks old and we had just sold our house. Just to put just to put the emphasis on it, they said, we're gonna do it the day he arrives. The day we've we've worked with him, we selected him, he's done a great job in the FBI, he served our country, took an oath to the constitution, took an oath to defend this country. He's gonna move. We're gonna send all this stuff in this van to this movie. We're gonna do that. When the day he arrives, we're gonna suspend him. We're not gonna let his family get their belongings. We're not gonna let him get his clothes for his kids, his winter coats for his children. We're gonna send a message. And they did. They suspended you. They took your pay. They don't let you get health insurance. They made life miserable for you to send a message. Because you know what? You reported on the first big screw up they had in this administration. The first big one. You reported to us as a whistleblower about the school board's issue. The the the the the Biden administration, they thought this was gonna be a win for them politically. They thought it was gonna make Terry McAuliffe governor of Virginia. Backfired on him, and you reported. Would it surprise you, mister O'Boyle, to know that the FBI told us they looked at 25 parents who were reported on this snitch line that was set up with this memorandum from the attorney general? They looked at 25 parents. How many do you think of them were actually ever investigated and prosecuted? How many think were prosecuted, mister O'Boyle? If I had to guess, I'd say 0. 0. 0. And you came to us because you say this is wrong. This is wrong to set up some federal snitch line, some neighbor calling in because they don't like their their neighbor's politics reporting to the FBI. Go investigate these parents. They said, we gotta get this guy. We gotta get we gotta get Garrett O'Boyle because you had the courage to step forward. And it's not just with this issue because we have the memorandum from the Richmond field office about Catholics. Right? If you're pro life, pro family, and you're Catholic, look out. The FBI wanted to put people inside the church, inside the parish to spy on fellow citizens.
