Journalist Michael Shellenberger has exposed so much corruption over the past several years, We the People have learned that when he drops a bomb on Twitter, it is worth paying attention to and it is usually HYUGE.

His latest nuke dropped on Twitter involves the FBI. This news is early in development and so far it is brief, but it sure seems like he—and a noted FBI whistleblower—have some interesting and incriminating things to say to Attorney General Pam Bondi, FBI Director Kash Patel, and newly named Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino.
Check it out:
FBI whistleblower @GOBactual confirmed to me that a source inside FBI said FBI employees were destroying evidence on servers, and that he informed @Kash_Patel
I hope he & @AGPamBondi @JohnRatcliffe @elonmusk @realannapaulina are preventing this.
We urgently need disclosure! https://t.co/hhEU2z9r8i

Shellenberger was prompted to post the tweet amid a conversation between Rep. Anna Paulina Luna and conservative pundit Charlie Kirk involving corruption at the CIA and other intelligence agencies … and whatever sick things are going on at the NSA right now.
The whistleblower Shellenberger mentioned in his tweet is former FBI agent Garrett O’Boyle, who previously testified before Congress about the weaponization of the FBI under the Obiden Regime and the retribution the agency took on him and others for exposing its actions, despite whistleblower protection laws.
Here is what he had to say in 2023:

Yeah, we think he knows what he is talking about when it comes to corruption at the FBI.
This is not the first time O’Boyle has mentioned the possibility of FBI employees destroying files. Earlier Monday, he spoke with conservative podcast host Benny Johnson and said the same, as well as talking about other ways in which FBI employees are seeking to subvert the Trump administration.
🚨BOMBSHELL: FBI Whistleblower Reveals The FBI is Actively DESTROYING Evidence after Kash, Bongino Takeover:

What was new in Shellenberger’s tweet, however, was the fact that O’Boyle has been in touch with Patel to provide him with a report about the server shenanigans taking place.
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) February 25, 2025
O’Boyle noted to Johnson that he did not think even Musk’s team of DOGE whiz kids could recover the files if they were erased from stand-alone servers, but if anyone can, it is likely that team.

We the People sure hope that is true.
Destroying evidence is a serious crime and the people responsible must be investigated by Patel and Bongino.
Violation of the Federal Records Act just for starters. If true, prosecutions must happen. Then proffer those convicted to give up more people. https://t.co/bP05lVGow7

Yes. Just like law enforcement does with other criminals.

Patel has been the FBI Director for less than a week, but we hope that has been long enough for him to put a stop to some of this criminal subterfuge.
The deep state is hiding their crimes, which means they know they are guilty. Destruction of evidence is a serious charge and every one of them is risking prison time. This is a very stupid mistake, and they will likely live to regret it, albeit in a prison cell.

They have to be caught first but, again, there are people in place now who can and hopefully will do exactly that.
I’m sure the @DOGE geniuses can figure out which FBI employees logged into and/or accessed the servers to destroy evidence. Look how quickly they found the decades of waste, fraud and abuse in almost every agency they’ve visited. imho, wouldn’t be much of a heavy lift for them. https://t.co/vlKMhzNRxX

I trust Schellenberger. He and Matt Taibi broke the Twitter Files. https://t.co/fsLCmK5WpH

We trust Shellenberger too, but just as importantly, we trust O’Boyle based on what he has exposed in the past.
Shellenberger did not elaborate on his initial tweet Monday night, but he did offer a valuable follow-up message to President Trump, DNI Tulsi Gabbard, and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
Also I hope @realDonaldTrump @TulsiGabbard and @Sec_Noemare are alert to any insider threats that could be destroying evidence that belongs to the American people. Don’t let abusers of power cover up their tracks!

What Shellenberger and O’Boyle reported is shocking, but hardly surprising. Everyone knew the FBI in Washington was filled with bad actors long before Trump won the election and took office. We have to imagine his team anticipated this and are prepared for it, along with other illicit actions from the deep state across federal agencies.
If O’Boyle is right and evidence truly is being destroyed, everyone involved must be prosecuted.
God speed to the DOGE team and their recovery of that data.
