Mr. Patel

If I was employed by the FBI, I would definitely be working on updating my resume sooner rather than later. Especially if I had any type of administrative/desk position.

Edit for the new troll handle below: I don't give a fuck what race the guy is. He's just another Trump puppet who will follow orders to do what Trump wants him to do to change the FBI.

Well he's Indian and if you have anything bad to say about him or even question anything he has ever said or done it's because you're racist.

Good morning everyone.
My name is Kash Patel and I am your new boss.
I have an urgent assignment for each and everyone of you.
This task must be completed by Close of Business today.
I need to have one or both of the following items on my desk:

• Your resignation
• Your list of the top 3 things we can do to improve the Bureau

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It only matters what they feel. They claim to THINK about things, but really they just feel the way their talking points tell them to.

By someone who knows more than the OP who supposedly doesn't care about all this political stuff...

As Democrats try to stymie President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for FBI Director, an influential retired bureau supervisor says a large number of agents support Kash Patel for the job because of his national security experience and his vision to replace the law enforcement agency’s leadership who allowed politics to usurp crime fighting.

“This guy is completely and 100% qualified to run that organization. He's what's needed today. He's the right fix,” retired FBI Supervisory Special Agent Jeff Danik told Just the News in a wide-ranging interview Monday.

While Democrats and news media critics have suggested that Patel was selected to be a loyalist seeking revenge on Trump foes, Danik noted Patel's extensive career experience, which includes stints as a federal public defender, federal prosecutor, counterterrorism director at the National Security Council, senior counsel to the House Intelligence Committee and chief of staff to both the Defense Secretary and the Director of National Intelligence.

“He has the correct balance, in my view, having been there for almost 30 years,” Danik said of Patel. “He has the correct balance of prosecutor, which is what we do. We feed the prosecution tube. Defense attorney, so the other side of that coin. Intelligence, the intelligence agencies, which is a key element to the FBI's either success or failure.

"And then also, I think this is personal, that he's been a victim himself of the system,” Danik said. “And the combination of those things uniquely qualifies him beyond his, you know, substantial accomplishments.”

Those accomplishments, Just the News confirmed, include two major government awards for Patel’s work on national security during the Obama administration.

The recognitions included a 2017 Assistant Attorney General’s award of excellence for Patel’s prosecution of 12 Al-Shabab terrorists who killed 72 and injured dozens more with suicide bombings targeting sports fans watching a 2010 FIFA World Cup soccer match at two locations in Kampala, the capital of Uganda. They also include a Central Intelligence Agency Award for Human Intelligence Gathering for his work combating terrorism in East Africa.

Well he's Indian and if you have anything bad to say about him or even question anything he has ever said or done it's because you're racist. Originally Posted by MT Bowels

Patel is Trumps most outrageous nomination yet.

What could,go wrong???

I have no problem if Trump wants to drastically change things at many of these government agencies for the good of the people in this country whom he was elected to work for. I do have a problem if he wants to drastically change things at these government agencies only because they hurt his pussy in the past and he is still acting like a vengeful little bitch about it.

Regardless, I don't work for the FBI and Trump is going to do what he wants to do so I'll just sit back and continue to casually watch the Trump circus from afar like everyone else should.

What is the proper attitude towards an agency that executed a raid on his home, created FRAUDULENT images during that raid of classified documents in order to influence the public?

What is the proper attitude he should have towards an agency that worked at the highest levels to prevent his election, reelection, refused to investigate assertions of vote fraud, and worked to prevent his re-election a 2nd time?

Me? I'd shutter that agency.

Since you've never taken an oath to the Constitution, I will allow for your ignorance on the matter. The Director is duty bound to follow the LAWFUL orders of the President.

If the order is lawful, it doesn't matter how much you personally may not like said order.

Nothing about what the OP is wetting his panties over could be argued to be unlawful. So... yeah, the director should do EXACTLY as he's asked by the President.

Get over your feelings, and understand the law.
