A former FBI agent slammed the bureau Tuesday for wasting taxpayer money after receiving a document from an alleged field office insider in New Jersey, which announced a “wellness room” that includes massage recliners, lounge furniture, and a yoga space for employees.
Steve Friend, a former FBI agent and current senior fellow for the Center for Renewing America, tweeted two photos sent to him by an apparent insider at the bureau’s Newark Field Office that shows a memo announcement from the Health & Wellness Committee and a sign of self-care “reminders” outside the wellness room.
Friend, who was suspended after making a whistleblower complaint about the Department of Justice, slammed the bureau in his tweet, saying, “this is not a serious law enforcement agency.”
“I definitely see a value in activities that could build morale, but I don’t think that it should be done on the taxpayer’s time and dime,” Friend told The Daily Wire. “And when you see things like massage chairs being made available to federal employees to have access to during their workday — as a taxpayer myself, I find that insulting.”
According to the document posted by Friend, a Newark Wellness Committee volunteer issued the memo citing the mission statement and how to enhance the bureau’s so-called culture of excellence to maintain current and retired employees’ physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.
“The Wellness Committee seeks to encourage employees to prioritize their physical, emotional, and mental health by offering a wellness space, program, and resources,” the document reads. “The Committee will support employees in their development and maintenance of healthy and positive habits that increase their overall wellbeing.”

Too many millenial women in the FBI.
Funny how they need safe spaces. Fascists are usually snowflakes at their core.
Do they also have a “Safe Place” for employees to go? I read an article by a Millennial woman who has to interview Zero G idiots for jobs. She said their biggest problem is that they operate on emotions. They want to be “nice” people all the time. That’s why GoFundMe pages are so hot. Zero Gs borrow money to send to GoFundMe pages.
The FBI is just another bureaucracy that serves the Democrat party instead of the citizens of The United States.
spending down the budget by the end of the fiscal year to avoid cuts.
Very understandable. Stalin gave his NKVD and KGB henchmen all the vodka they could drink. Biden gives his goons “wellness rooms” and eliminates drug testing. Its very stressful work.
True, but the common proletariat could buy it for less money than safe drinking water. A drunk and/or stoned population is much easier to control.
It’s tough work persecuting innocent Americans.
Isn't that exactly what is NOT supposed to happen to 'whistleblowers"?????
I DO NOT WISH TO SEE A CADRE OF SNOWFLAKES RUNNING THE FBI
My brother lives next to an FBI agent. A real tw@t
The guy has sued all his neighbors, blaming them for water issues on his property - even though he lives at the bottom of a hill, next to a pond and swamp area. Even used his Fed connections to pull EPA into the issue, who eventually ruled - “its just the natural flow of the topogrophy.”
Its easy to understand where they get their entitlement and arrogance from.
As long as the room is padded with jackets to wear and no way to get out what is the problem? Heavy meds might be good thing to add.
HEY! Let’s not be so judgemental! “SWAT-ing” innocent citizens can be very draining!
The rest of us unentitled schmucks have to wait until quitting time to go home to our ‘safe’ spaces. It must be nice to be in the king’s court!
Thought male agents used female agents for that???
Where they go after the sex reassignment surgery?
Welness room for the women, bath house for the men. Makes sense.
I attended the FBI Citizens’ Academy many years ago. We got a tour of the FBI facility. They had a gym that was better equipped, with better quality equipment, than I have seen in any commercial gym.
