Yet, the average agent fails to speak up where their voices can be heard by the public. Complaining over drinks in a bar is just not the same. I understand they fear loss of a job and a career. But, the FBI can’t fire every agent. An organized movement, like #WalkAway, would offer protection to those who speak out and would reassure those in “fly-over” country that there are men and women with honor trying to do the right thing.
I don’t know. I hate it, but I suspect that those involved in the bureaucratic power structures in Washington at this point are there because they want to be there. I bet a very high % of the USA’s high functioning sociopaths are drawn to DC in one way or another. It was probably too late to do anything about it 50 + years ago.
