Patel fired a dozen FBI agents last Wednesday after learning that his and White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles’ phones had been under subpoena as part of the probe into Trump’s hoarding of top secret records at Mar-a-Lago.

His firing of the global espionage unit, known as CI-12, came days before the U.S. and Israel jointly launched Operation Epic Fury, with airstrikes on Iran that have led to a wider conflict throughout the Middle East.

Strikes on Iran during Trump’s first presidency were followed by a series of Iranian operations in the U.S. to try to assassinate Trump and some of his allies.

CI-12 probes illegal media leaks and the mishandling of classified documents. The unit consisted of veteran agents trained on threats and spy operations, with a special focus on the Middle East, including Iran, sources told MS Now.

This story has been told as a revenge story from trump. No, it's a destroying of evidence and firing any witnesses story.
