To say that there is a chill in the air at FBI HQ, and its field offices, is an understatement.  Perhaps I should call HQ the future “Museum of the Deep State” on day one if Kash Patel is confirmed as its director, as he’s said publicly.  Between firings, exposure of agents, analysts and others involved in the Trump and January 6 investigations, and Trump loyalists occupying the 7th floor of the executive suites of the FBI, it is hard to  imagine how vigorously wrong doers in America and our foreign enemies are celebrating when they see the confusion, chaos and morale destruction at play.  Breaking it all down for us is Frank Figliuzzi a former assistant director for counterintelligence at the FBI, where he served 25 years as a special agent and directed all espionage investigations across the government.  He is the author of “The FBI Way: Inside the Bureau’s Code of Excellence.”  Imagine this, and it’s not a Hollywood screenwriter’s fantasy, careerists at the FBI have filed two lawsuits against the Department of Justice, the agency that the FBI reports to.  If you don’t think our safety and security is on the line, please listen to this podcast.
