James Dennehy says he was forced to resign in an email to staff.
“Late Friday, I was informed that I needed to put my retirement papers in today, which I just did. I was not given a reason for this decision,” Dennehy said.
Dennehy had previously told his office to “dig in” after Trump was elected.
The resignation comes after AG Pam Bondi instructed FBI Director Kash Patel to launch an investigation into claims that the New York field office was hiding thousands of documents.
Bondi said a source came forward claiming the field office had thousands of pages of docs.
“I repeatedly questioned whether this was the full set of documents responsive to my request and was repeatedly assured by the FBI that we had received the full set of documents,” Bondi said.
“Late yesterday, I learned from a source that the FBI Field Office in New York was in possession of thousands of pages of documents related to the investigation and indictment of Epstein.”
“Despite my repeated requests, the FBI never disclosed the existence of these files. When you and I spoke yesterday, you were just as surprised as I was to learn this new information.”
Another deep state swamp creature bites the dust. Dennehy is a real corrupt lowlife thug who has ruined many lives.

In the old days, J. Edgar Hoover used to run the FBI, with an iron fist. He had many faults, but he kept discipline within his organization. If he caught an agent who was not performing up to standards, he was promptly transferred to Butte, Montana, which in those days was considered a demotion, as it was a very isolated area. He ran the show for forty seven years, as the Director of the FBI. Since his death fifty three years ago, in 1972, there has been about a dozen FBI Directors, who can’t seem to last very long.
He wasn’t told to resign, it was made clear to him that he should resign or face consequences. Dennehy will probably get a job with CNN
This is probably misdirection.
Dennehy was also accused of protecting agents who had been involved with the January 6th investigation.
