We were embarrassed *for* the FBI following the Charlie Kirk assassination. We followed the local coverage since this hit close to home. Patel was a clown creating a circus. It seems the biggest break was when the parents of the alleged assassin called law enforcement. We wondered how much Patel damaged the investigation. I've often speculated since Patel took over how much the FBI can still be trusted under his influence. It is a dark place for the agency to find itself.
I appreciate what you've written here. I hope, someday soon, that we can restore much of what we lost in this administration. It may mean rebuilding everything. I hope we have that opportunity.
Thanks, Andy. The nation and the world is grateful for your wise words and respected experience. Great to see you in print where so many can read your pieces!
Excellent first article. Patel is already counter-messaging with "statistics".....how many criminals arrested, indicted, convicted, even deported; how many terrorist attacks stopped, etc.
Any easy way to look at comparable stats from recent past directors' tenures? Something the news media should be doing, but I have not seen it.
Grateful to hear a voice of knowledge, career based experience, and reason.
