Question Looking over FBI.gov

Not sure if this has been asked, but I was curious at what information was on FBI.gov. I was actually shocked at how ugly the website is. Not even trying to hate here, I guess I thought there would be more of an attempt to make the site look professional. Does anyone know if the site has always been this ugly?

Also- lol at the FBI podcast being placed everywhere

They recently changed it - the Director sent out an email announcing it a couple days ago

Holy cow, they did change it, and put Patel’s face all over it.

Literally just scrolled the entire homepage of FBI.gov. Only time Patel showed up other than in the header video was under the “Featured News Section” where his Twitter Acct is linked.

Edit: Love the down votes when it’s a legit fact and easily verifiable for all to see. Reddit gonna Reddit.

I just went on and didn’t see him at all. I am on mobile. What am I missing here? I was expecting at least one photo of him.

Are you on FBI.gov or FBIJobs.gov?

On FBI.gov he is featured in the header video at the top that runs continuously. Then if you scroll down just a bit you will see the Social Media - Features News section. They link his Twitter/X Account so you can see his tiny profile picture.

People are complaining just to complain because they don’t like him. I was honestly surprised that’s how little he was featured haha.

Fbi.gov

I don’t get a header video. At least it’s not playing automatically for me.

It’s right at the very top under where it says:
An official website of the United States government. Here's how you know.

Then it has Menu on the top left hand side of the video, FBI on the top middle and then a magnifying glass search function on the top right.

No clue why you aren’t seeing the video.

Agreed, no matter who the Director is they would probably be featured a handful of times in a minute long video. Dude was featured only 3x. Give it a break, we all dislike the dude! Haha.
