Americans often question the ethics of politicians and government leaders, and trust in our elected officials has fallen to an all-time low.

It doesn’t help when high-ranking people within the administration suddenly come under heavy scrutiny—which involves a mystery investigation and authorities raiding an office.

But that’s exactly what happened in Washington this week, and insides sources are calling it “shocking.”

Most probably won’t recognize the name, but the Transnational Organized Crime Mission Center is run by Brian Sulc. He’s the executive director and as you might expect, he holds a lot of power and influence.

Now he’s in some serious hot water, though we’re not exactly sure why. All we know is that DHS has kicked off a big investigation.

From Fox News:

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed a Biden administration official’s Washington, D.C. office was raided by federal law enforcement with the official being placed on administrative leave.

DHS confirmed to Fox News Digital that Transnational Organized Crime Mission Center executive director Brian Sulc’s office was raided and cordoned off with police tape on Monday.

A DHS spokesperson said they’re “conducting an inquiry into a reported security incident,” and they can’t comment on internal investigations.

However, if an office was raided and police tape was set up, most assume it’s a big deal. Whatever it is they were looking for, it’s likely highly important and confidential, and it leads to many questions.

In his position of executive director, Sulc runs intelligence assessments on critical policy issues. Now he’s on administrative leave while the investigation moves forward.

Currently, Sulc is accused of violating security protocols by “taking a personal electronic device into the secured office.”

So far, he hasn’t been charged with any crime but his office remains closed, and Sulc was escorted out of the building by security. One inside source was quoted by Rolling Stone as saying:

He is a big deal. He does the border, all the big issues and crises. This is why this is all so shocking.

It seems as if the FBI and other law enforcement agencies have been especially busy in recent years, as some of the most high-profile individuals in the country have come under fire.

This includes former President Donald Trump and current President Joe Biden for having allegedly classified material on personal property.

And every time we turn around, some other high-ranking member of the government appears to be involved in something shady, or potentially guilty of some violation or another.

None of this creates a lot of trust in our leaders, that’s for sure.

Key Takeaways:

• A high-ranking official in the Biden administration is under investigation, and DHS has raided his office.
• Transnational Organized Crime Mission Center executive director Brian Sulc is accused of “taking a personal electronic device into the secured office.”
• A source familiar with the event said Sulc is “a big deal,” and handles a lot of major issues such as border security.
