My name is Dave Sundberg. I spent 23 years with the FBI protecting this country from criminals and national security threats before I was forced out by the Trump Administration. Now I’m running to represent Maryland's 5th District in Congress. nytimes.com/2026/02/23/us/…

In the FBI, I had a choice: protect my job or stand by my principles. I chose my principles. I won’t bend for Donald Trump, and I won’t bend in Congress either.

I’ve already taken on Donald Trump and paid the price for it. I investigated January 6th. I investigated attempts to overturn an election. When I wouldn’t fall in line, I was fired. That’s exactly why I’m running for Congress.

Congress is supposed to make your life easier. Right now, it’s doing the opposite. I’m running to change that.

As Assistant Director in Charge of the Washington Field Office, I oversaw some of the most complex cases in the country—including the January 6 investigations. I don't just talk about holding Trump accountable, I've done it.

The President had the option to fund TSA but told Republicans not to, so he could deploy ICE agents into airports. This is not only disastrous for the American people, but a huge waste of tax dollars.

I knew Bob Mueller and he was a good man. A decorated Marine and dedicated public servant, Bob rebuilt the FBI into a highly capable national security organization. The Trump administration doesn’t have leaders like Bob Mueller. Bob, his family, and our nation deserve better than this.

National security is not a talking point. War is not a game. These are real decisions with real consequences—and they demand seriousness, discipline, and respect for the people who serve.

I will always take on powerful people who deserve to be held accountable—even the President of the United States. If you can't do that, you shouldn't be in Congress.

Dave Sundberg@DaveSundberg·18 Mar

I believe in taking accountability for your actions. I was proud to lead the investigations into the January 6th rioters and in Congress, I'll make sure no one is above the law.

ICE has already lost the trust of the American people. Adding anger issues isn’t going to help.

🔥 GOP Sen. Rand Paul blasts Trump’s DHS secretary pick, Sen. Markwayne Mullin: “You told the media that I was a freaking snake and that you completely understood why I had been assaulted… I just wonder if someone who applauds violence against their political opponents is the right person to lead an agency that has struggled to accept limits to the proper use of force… Explain to the American public why they should trust a man with anger issues to set the proper example for ICE and Border Patrol agents."

The Trump administation didn't just push out experienced federal workers, they pushed out institutional knowledge, national security expertise, and the people who actually know how to respond in a crisis.

We are all less safe during this war with Iran because of the unjust firing of experts within the FBI.

I'm not running to win the endorsement of powerful people. I'm running for the people who are tired of watching those in power avoid accountability.

From investigators and analysts to scientists and public health experts, federal workers do the work most Americans never see but depend on every day. MD-05 has so many federal workers who deserved better under the Trump Administration.

When I was fired from the FBI by the Trump Administration, I was told they lost confidence in me to execute the president's agenda. The only problem is it's never been my job to execute the president's agenda and never will be in Congress.

The attacks in Michigan and at Old Dominion University are deeply disturbing. During my career in the FBI, our mission was simple: stop threats before they become tragedies and protect the communities we serve. We must stand together against terrorism and the hatred that fuels it.

During my time in the FBI, election security meant protecting voting systems from hackers, foreign adversaries, and real criminal threats. We never saw evidence of widespread voter fraud that would justify barriers like the SAVE Act.

For 20+ years I held people accountable for breaking the law. In Congress, accountability has gone missing. I’m running to bring it back.

Our troops should never be pawns in the president's personal ambitions. Every life lost in war is one too many.

Mixed Martial Arts training is not going to replace the expertise lost in the vindictive firing of agents and analysts who had specialized experience in countering threats from the Middle East. ufc.com/news/ufc-and-f…
