Mark's piece is a timely one especially in light of the article by Sundance. Yes, the FBI is nervous and so are many of the rank and file who gleefully joined in on abusing regular Americans both J6'ers and the Mar-a-lago bunch. Pleading for the lawfare folks to keep them from direct line of sight:
They brought this upon themselves. If they would have just done their jobs and not gone on witch hunts. Or organized false crimes, like the Michigan governed assassination case, this would not have happened to them. No empathy for them...They had it coming.
Another major problem, if not the problem, is the use of Metrics in promotion and advancement. This was prevalent in FBI operations afghanistan. The FBI, in country, did not care what reality was, just as long as their metrics were obtained.
From an outsider with a window in I can attest to what Mark (and Steve Friend) say. I’m a FBI National Academy (NA) 200 Class(March 2000) and LEEDs (May 2005) graduate. The political attitude change at Quantico during those 5 years was amazing. I met with some previous instructors who all said they were counting the days to get out. This was so different from the 80’s and 90’s where agent friends were filing for extension on mandatory retirement.
The final straw for me was in I believe fall 2013 or maybe ‘14 when a government shutdown occurred. The NA sent 250 local and federal students home mid class, because “government shutdown”. Now let’s pretend the NA’s already approved budget magically disappeared during this shutdown. All the Hoover Building was trying to do was inflict suffering on these 250 to try to win them over to the spending mob and garner favor with the Obummer administration.
I resigned from the National Academy Association the next day. For years colleagues tried to get me to rejoin, nope, I’m an asshole that way.
Remove the DC FBI field office and reduce HQ staff; if investigation is needed, bring in agents from other offices around the country, distributed or randomly selected. Get rid of the DC federal court and appeals court for the same reason. In order to bring justice to DC we must rid ourselves of the operational justice institutions within DC.
What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Law enforcement has long used the technique of making a few examples of notorious prosecutions in order to "send a message" to the public at large, and thereby discourage misconduct generally. I believe that this should apply equally to DoJ and FBI malfeasance. There should be a few notable prosecutions to prove that no one is above the law. In my opinion, the raids conducted against Manafort, Stone, and even Trump at Mar a Lago, were examples of Gestapo tactics solely motivated by politics. The persons who authorized those assaults should do prison time, God willing.
I can see the logic of avoiding mass bloodshed in these organisations, no matter how satisfying it would be. Most people are followers. If the top and upper middle managers at these organisations change, the foot soldiers will tag along. I hope now that Trump turns to the armed forces. 90% of the upper hierarchy needs to go and Milley needs to answer for his treasonous statements during Trump's first term about contacting the Chinese about any plans Trump had for confronting them. It's lovely to see the Deep Staters having to don their brown trousers!
Hunt them all down, boot them out, prosecute if possible. No mercy, as they dispensed none.

Looks like the DOGE folks aren't having that. Some High Noon action in the works:

That's not the DOGE people, it's the DOJ people. Similar spelling, but different people.
My old office was at 9th & D with HQ right outside my window. Would love to have that ringside seat back right now.

I wonder if Musk’s purchase of Twitter was an ideological honey trap and catfishing operation all along, with AI fishing for major nodes?
Seems like this Administration ‘knows’ who they are looking for. The speed of things taking place is mind boggling.

Thank you for your service. And for sharing this.
I got paid for it. In fact, I'm still getting paid for it. Thanks for paying your taxes.
LOL. Then get back to work!

The questionnaire is also a trap.
If the person answers it wrong, it’s easy to cross check it, since the doge team has access to this information from databases they have access too.
Perhaps it’s also a way to encourage retirements / resignations.
Yep. If that doesn't work, I'm sure the soon-to-be annexed Greenland will have a crime wave that requires urgent attention from selected FBI members.
