Case Summary

[This summary is temporary while we research this case.]

On October 22, 2025, plaintiff Kelli-ann Reilly filed suit against the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI), U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), and these agency's directors. In her complaint, plaintiff alleges that she was targeted in the FBI Security Division's orchestrated campaign to purge employees who supported President Trump and held conservative viewpoints following the disputed November 2020 election through the pretextual use of security clearance revocations. Plaintiff claims that Defendants revoked Plaintiff's security clearance without due process under shifting pretextual grounds, subjected her to an ideological inquisition known internally as the "Trump Questionnaire," and ultimately forced her into early retirement through constructive discharge.

This case is ongoing.
