The GOP wants to defund the police
Republicans Step Up Attacks on FBI as It Investigates Trump
WASHINGTON When George Piro learned that some of his former colleagues were spreading unfounded rumors about him, he was stunned.
Piro, 55, was a highly decorated agent in the FBI. During his 23-year career, he earned a national intelligence medal for the months he spent interrogating Saddam Hussein, supervised several high-profile shooting investigations and consistently earned reviews that were among the highest for agents who ran field offices.
Now, he stood accused of misconduct by a group of former agents who had been placed on leave and called themselves the Suspendables. In a letter sent this month to FBI Director Christopher Wray, the group surfaced persistent accusations against the bureau, saying it had discriminated against conservative-leaning agents. The groups letter also falsely suggested that Piro, who once ran the FBIs office in Miami, had played a suspicious role in the bureaus search this summer of Mar-a-Lago, former President Donald Trumps private club and residence in Florida.
These claims are absolutely false, Piro said in an interview. I dedicated my life to the country and the FBI. I am disappointed that former agents would spread lies about me.
