Summary
FBI Director Kash Patel, appointed by Donald Trump despite lacking law enforcement experience, has frustrated current and former FBI and DOJ officials with what they see as a lack of seriousness and professionalism.
Patel skipped or scaled back key briefings and ended routine field office meetings, citing leaks.
Critics cite a leadership void, public relations stunts, and excessive travel including multiple trips unrelated to work.
Patel also briefly led the ATF but was quietly replaced after being absent.
They think that when the revolution hits, they can use Peter Theil’s spy tech to crush it, and then they will go full mask off.
