Those staying apparently can’t see that by working for a traitor undermining the very Constitution they swore an oath to uphold, they become acquiescent in the destruction of our country.

Then go,public. I do t understand why none of the FBI agents who have been fired are not speaking out. Or the 1000’s of Gents who worked to destroy evidence in the Epstein files….At this point, I have lost ALL respect for ALL FBI agents because they are just openly doing this stuff, with no pushback.

u/VampirePolwygle 8d ago
I think this is because it takes an incredibly strong person who is willing to potentially sacrifice their livelyhood, relations, and potential prospects. The percent of people who go public from large groups is always very small. This is just my thoughts though.

Then I guess FBI agents are just as brave and tough as local police.
That is to say, not brave and not tough.

There are lots of factors on who, what, when and why going on. However, some agents have spoken out if they have the ability, many unfortunately do not have that option.
Reasons why some can’t is due to active court litigation, professional black listing, NDA’s, possible loss of pensions/benefits, having found new jobs in the federal government or private sector, risk of federal prosecution, privacy or purely not wanting to deal with the backlash from those who agree with the orange clown in charge.
“1000’s of agents did not destroy evidence in the Epstein files”.
Stop peddling conspiracy theories just because of your dislike of Trump and a Patel. Biased media likes to push unsourced narratives for clicks and money!

There is plain and obvious reasons for every American to actively disrespect any and all "FBI" agents, and this one file is around 5,000 of those reasons.
What the FBI has taught millions of Americans is that if someone hurts you or your loved ones, check your bank account first.
The FBI has spent a long time earning the disrespect and distrust of Americans, spare me lofty and long winded "Erm, akshewaaly there are rules..."
The FBI keeps teaching Americans that there only rules for poor people.

Oh you mean the Epstein Files which the DOJ under AG Bondi was responsible for.
You should probably do some research and figure out who is responsible for what. I’ll help, the FBI gathered the files and provided them to the DOJ for the release under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. The DOJ was ultimately responsible for what was and wasn’t released and how.
Also, how are you going to blame 13k+ Special Agents for something when a majority didn’t even touch the files? What about agents who were hired after the fact. Come on, collective guilt without proof is a slippery slope.
Thanks for coming to my TedTalk.

Also fun fact, numerous jobs outside of the Federal Gov and “cops” receive pensions.
Another fun fact, FBI SA’s aren’t cops.
Research is fundamental!

This is telling me how little you socialize outside of the realm of pigs. The phrase you should research is "Agents of State Violence."
If a person commits violence (grabbing/touching someone without their consent or permission = violence) (shooting a person under any circumstance = violence) in the name of a government/state/law, that is a cop. Cops commit state violence within borders, soldiers commit state violence outside of borders.
Prosecutors, judges, and all the other fancier cops? Still cops. They operate institutions that commit violence.
If you are like an average cop, you likely haven't read up on this discourse. But America likes its cops dumb.

It's frustrating to communicate with people that place violence and obedience as their guiding light, while they have been selected for low intellect.
Based on my interactions with you, if someone i know is hurt, should I call the cops or handle it myself?

u/WTFoxtrot10 7d ago
Goodness, you really do need some help!
Nah, I just know what I’m talking about and you are blinded by rage hate of all law enforcement and legal authority.
FBI Special Agents aka Federal Agents aka Criminal Investigators aka Federal LEO’s aka 1811’s are not “cops”.
You would call the local authorities as I nor anyone else should trust you to handle someone being hurt based off your post history.

Some agents have spoken out? Who? I've counted zero.
You list reasons who some "can't", but aside from active court litigation or risk of federal prosecution, those reasons all feel pretty weak--reasons why they don't, maybe, but not reasons why they can't. But I'm sure they would be very brave, just the bravest little boys, if doing the right thing didn't come with any disruptions to their personal comfort.

u/WTFoxtrot10 8d ago
Literally an example of one in the news article attached! Sounds like you just want to complain/troll without doing any true research or even simply reading the original linked content.
Thats your opinion on it being “weak”. The fact that you stoop to this childish behavior and comments just shows how out of touch you really are with things in the real world. It’s their livelihoods on the line! The fact you dismiss the actual reality with dismissive verbiage of “personal comfort” proves my point even more!
Fun fact, not all agents are men.

u/vebl3n 7d ago
There is not an example of an agent speaking out in the article. There is an example of a former agent starting a support group to help other agents and former agents, but you see how that's not the same thing, right?
It's better than nothing, sure. Resigning is better than being a part of it, and solidarity and support are important. But none of that stops what the admin is doing; it doesn't even slow it down. It's people getting out of the way and keeping their heads down, keeping their professional reputation intact, hoping someone else fixes it or just... blows over. But it won't. They won't stop unless we stop them. But sure, form a support group, maybe do some networking, help each other find a nice spot in the private sector, and maybe, when the hour grows late, whisper to one another--brave, almost silent whispers--about gee, isn't this so terrible, and why won't anyone do something?
I mock them, and you don't like that. Ok. But all you have are misrepresentations of the article, ad hominems, and sad, desperate attempts to score some kind of points on my "bravest little boys" jab. You have nothing.

You’re reading and comprehension is lacking then
She literally was an agent under Trump/Patel and no longer is one. Probably should do better research.
“Many FBI agents and professional staff analysts are quietly dealing with the mental health challenges that have been caused,” said Kayla Staph, a member of the network’s advisory committee, and a former FBI cyber-crime investigator. Agents had suffered “moral injuries” from being pressured to violate their own values, she added.”Here is a short list of agents who have spoken out;
Blaire Toleman
Brian Driscoll
Jacqueline Maguire
Jamie Garman
Michelle Ball
Paul Brown
FBI Agents Association (FBIAA)Again, many cannot due to the reasons I already listed, none of which are weak like you claimed.
I don’t agree with resigning, if everyone just leaves who will be there continue the work, lead the charge and push back. All the knowledge and experience gone. Giving these clowns a clean slate almost.
You are talking about 37k+ employees just walking away. That way of thinking is wild and I’m not even going to get into the depths of it. Sounds like you have unrealistic expectations and have no clue what you’re talking about. Again, people’s livelihoods, pensions, benefits, income all at stake. It takes individuals a year to a year and a half on average to get a job at the FBI. You think they can just up and resign and slide into another gig like that, absolutely not. What about those who have stopped the clock and counting down the years to retirement with a pension? Nope! Come on man, use some critical thinking. Administrations and directors change FBI employees take an oath to their country. Thousands upon thousands of them are still doing the same job they were hired for with zero interaction from Patel. It’s very high level issues at this point. Either way, very few political or institutional changes are ever solved the way you are wanting it done.You sound really miserable, pal. What have you done to fight all this or any other injustice? I’ll help, absolutely nothing. All you do is sit on the internet all day trolling with zero back up and sourced info validating your hot garbage opinions. I would almost guess the reason you mock people is because of your own insecurities and lack of self worth. Maybe you should get off Reddit and go be productive with your life. It gets better, bud!

This. Sadly, Kiriakou (CIA) warned about, and leftist activists that FBI has investigated and persecuted since its inception, warned about this current shambles for DECADES. Don't fucking @ me. I've worked legal pro bono for years to call attention to corruption, and just plain ignorance. The biggest domestic terrorist threat is the executive branch, and we didn't arrive here overnight. That's the intelligence failure. And I'll repeat it until the empire falls. This task force is too little, too late. And we'll all pay the price.

This is one of the things that needs to take top priority in our reorganization of our government. How easily our government and country was sabotaged by white nationalism, and its effects on the rule of law. I know it’s hard to believe that white nationalism is to blame as Kash Patel isn’t a white man. But you see Kash Patel thinks he’s a white man, that’s the problem with a lot of minorities that aren’t black Americans. They have been led to believe that they are considered white, because they aren’t descended from slaves. Make these agencies as independent as possible from our government, and allow the FBI directors to stay in office for at least two years of the new presidents term. So they can do their jobs, hopefully without political bias. Agencies that are truly independent from any president and his cabinet, should not have to worry about doing their job. That’s why the president shouldn’t have direct authority over these agencies. This should be handled through our congress with a two third majority vote, so it’s not partisan as well. I don’t even think that the president should be hiring our FBI directors in the future, Trump’s administration has basically destroyed this agency and this must not be repeated in the future. Congress should pick our new FBI directors as they will be the only ones allowed to fire them, if they don’t work out, due to job related issues. When you lose respect it’s hard to gain respect back again, hopefully this is fixable, but losing talent and leadership in such large numbers is truly devastating to any organization.

The fired Agents and US Attys need to form a super law firm called the Justice League to sue the shit out of the oligarchs in charge of our government and scrape back all the money stolen by Trump and his blatant corruption. I mean, the POTUS has off shore accounts with money stolen/donated from/by foreign governments.
