Face The Nation: Frank Figliuzzi and Scott MacFarlane on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan,” Feb. 2, 2025

FRANK FIGLIUZZI: Yeah, when you combine that essential layer of leadership, executive assistant directors control multiple operational divisions, so at least a half a dozen of those reportedly are gone, and then you get down to the level of at least two or three special agents in charge in the field, including Miami, Washington Field Office, you are starting to lose too much experience. And if this plays out next week, as reportedly it might, with regard to dismissing hundreds or thousands of special agents in the field who have touched January 6 cases or Trump related cases. This makes America less safe. This is not reduction. This is not efficiency. It makes America less safe when you lose that much expertise this quickly.
