FBI Agent Leading Assassination Investigation is Anti-Trump

The lead agent in the FBI’s investigation into the second attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump has reportedly posted anti-Trump content on social media.

A report from Fox News explains that a whistleblower told Congress last year that FBI agent Jeffrey Veltri was ordered by the bureau to remove the anti-Trump posts.

“The home of President Donald Trump is located in the area of responsibility of the Miami Field Office. It was well known that Veltri was adamantly and vocally Anti-Trump,” the whistleblower disclosure read, as reported by The Washington Times. “Wray, Abbate and Moore wanted to ensure that Veltri appeared non-political, Veltri was ordered to remove all of his Facebook and Social media posts that were Anti-Trump.”

According to the whistleblower, the FBI was not concerned with Veltri’s political bias, but whether evidence of his bias could be “removed from the public domain.”

Following the whistleblower’s allegations, the FBI said, “Special Agent in Charge Veltri was selected through a competitive process to lead the Miami field office and is charged with carrying out the FBI mission in a fair and unbiased manner.”

“The reported allegations about political bias impacting decisions, the targeting of former military employees, and SAC Veltri’s social media accounts and posts are demonstrably false,” the bureau claimed.

The whistleblower’s claims resurfaced after Veltri addressed reporters during a press conference on the assassination attempt.
