, FBI director, pushing ahead w plan to decentralize the agency’s command structure & divide bureau into 3 regions

The move will mean that in effect, the top agents in 52 field offices around the country will no longer answer to the deputy director, a signif departure from the way the bureau has done business”

The swift decision to alter the hierarchy of the F.B.I. comes just weeks after Mr. Patel was confirmed and raises questions about the thoroughness of the plans.

@GottaLaff I'm recalling Nixon back then ... but now squared.

@WillyECoyote69 Quintupled (I don't know how to say squared x5)

@GottaLaff You're doing great things ! And often i think .... 'Take Care of Yourself' but nevermind, i am just a passenger.

@GottaLaff Can I post you a music, since i'm most posting music here, besides my politic views ? X

@WillyECoyote69 No thanks. I don't listen or watch vids that people send me only bc I have no time.

@WillyECoyote69 I'm really sorry. I just know they'd be wasted on me.

@GottaLaff No sorries dear. Stay put and stay strong ! 💪

@GottaLaff

Ka$h Patel's cartographer must come from the Ohio Gerrymanderers 'R Us store.

A more defensible arrangement for his unprecedented move would have been to use the federal circuit court map. He may have started with it, but this is very different. A lot of hidden mischief ahead.

@GottaLaff yes, at least, I can click through to and read the bsky post. Oddly, and I don’t expect @GottaLaff to know, the color key doesn’t show what “grey” states indicate, and the posts say that the eastern seaboard is ignored in the letter but that isn’t what’s shown.

@GottaLaff

The de-Baathification continues. I wonder how it will turn out?

@GottaLaff Sounds like he’s adding a level of bureaucracy. I’m guessing those three regional directors will be Trump sycophants that will filter out crimes committed by Trump’s or Musks organizations. Anyone who donates to Trump gets a get out of jail card.

@GottaLaff

Ka$h Patel, his own formulation, would seem to be trying to make it harder to know what the FBI is doing and to hold it accountable. The Sgt. Schultz defense, which means he is planning to do a lot of nasty stuff for his lord and master.

@GottaLaff That’s great, because intelligence failures like 9/11 have typically been caused by *too much* connecting the dots.

@Twotired Siiiggggh, yeah. I wanna hibernate so badly
