FBI Director Kash Patel’s overhaul at the agency is setting off alarm bells among current and former officials, according to a bombshell report.
Since the Senate confirmed Patel in February last year, the bureau has suffered a staffing crisis due to voluntary exits and purges ordered by the former podcaster, who is primarily focused on advancing President Donald Trump’s agenda.
In response to shortages, management at the FBI and the Department of Justice, which oversees the agency, has eased hiring requirements. This is tantamount to a loosening of standards, according to concerned former and current officials who spoke to the Associated Press.
