The FBI is undergoing extensive and controversial transformation under the new director of Kash Patel, appointed by President Donald Trump. According to The New York Times, the Patel pushed higher officials, increased the use of printing tests, and centralized control in the apparent effort to settle the Bureau by the political agenda of Trump’s administration.
Behind the closed door, the patella’s aggressive shock is “quietly forms”, and the initiates describe the climate of fear and retaliatory measures. “The FBI has become so thoroughly endangered that it will remain a threat to people if drastic measures are not taken,” Patel wrote in his gangster book government and set his vision to dismantle and rebuild the structure of the agency.
The leaders have excluded or degraded
More higher officials, including seasoned female agents who led field offices, received an ultimatum: to accept degradation, move into less influential roles or retire. In Los Angeles, a senior agent was responsible for intelligence assigned to a low -profile post in Huntsville, Alabama. Similar incidents were reported in San Diego, St. Louis, Jacksonville and Washington, interviews with almost a dozen of contemporary and former law enforcement officials.
The rise of political denominators and “reform teams”
Dan Bongino, a representative of the patel and the former right -wing media host, said on the social media: “Director and me and I will have most of our incoming reform teams until next week … That will help us both double our reform agenda.”
The new leading team reportedly revise politically accused cases, including the escape of the Supreme Court of 2022, the discovery of cocaine in the White House and the bombs pipes near Capitol 6 January. He controversially referred to Bongino as a “case of” public corruption “than domestic terrorism than in domestic terrorism than in domestic terrorism”, which was “covering” incidents concerning the “incident” concerning the incident.
Concerns about retaliation and censorship
According to the news report, the agents were included on an administrative holiday, often without explanation. Two officials associated with the case of the Hunter Biden notebook were reportedly pushed-one of them were previously disciplined for its processing of Trump-Rusk’s investigation.
According to the report, a lawyer responsible for human resources was removed during a medical leave, while a higher official was reportedly displaced after the patel found that his wife was kneeling on the protest of 2020 against police violence – despite the official handover of the printing and leaving with undamaged record.
Aggressive use of prints to stop leakage
Patel’s FBI has increasingly relied on prints to identify potential leaks – even on problems unrelated to classified information or open cases.
“I never used them to clean the gossip,” said Stern, a former FBI agent who made hundreds of prints. “If an agent who spoke legitimately with the news media in the previous role, he had to take one, it would be a problem.”
Sources said the New York Times that the executives were printed at a “fast pace”. The incident included a higher official who was partially pushed out of his husband’s political act and raised concerns about loyalty tests within the Bureau.
Despite the riots, the Patel reportedly insists that the agency is stable: “We have been able to maintain a significant level of leadership in Washington and throughout the country,” he told the senators during the recent budget.
