In an escalating confrontation with the Trump administration, Acting FBI Director Brian Driscoll is pushing back against orders to dismiss eight senior agents involved in the Capitol riot investigation.

Driscoll’s resistance has sparked growing tensions within the bureau, as he argues that the request could undermine the integrity of ongoing investigations.
