It’s starting , a new day in America,Chris Wray is gone!

[riclag]

 

 

FBI Director Christopher Wray announced Wednesday he was stepping down as head of the bureau, just days after Republicans expressed a loss of confidence in him.

 

Something tells me he’ll be sitting next to another ex , Andy MCCabe,

in a  Cnn activist roll.

But according to the Vacancies Reform Act of 1988, on the day Wray would resign, he cannot be replaced by Mr. Patel.

I've got a little bit of empathy for Wray.  None for his boss (Garland) and even less than none for his boss, Biden.

 

Almost everyone who's ever worked in a hierarchy has experienced doing distasteful deeds because that's what the boss tells (and pays) you to do.  Wray wasn't steering the boat.  He was just rowing.

That said, he needs to go so the new management can investigate how deep the rot is, and was.

It seems under the Vacancies Act as above, Wray has handed Trump a nice going away present in that it would much better for Trump if Wray had waited until AFTER Patel had been confirmed (if he eventually is) to resign or be fired rather than on the (morning of) the day that Trump takes office.

 

While others would be qualified for an immediate interim appointment, Patel would not be.

Americans want accountability in the FBI , Doj ,  state & federal agencies .

Chris Christy’s recommendation of Wray was for the establishment .

Kash will be a agent for accountability!

 

Looking forward to his confirmation hearing!

the FBI has been a thorn in the side of America since 1934.

 

Reorganize it

The worst thing a decision-maker can do is to surround himself with 'YES' people.  It results in 'tunnel vision' and inability to think outside the box.  The second Trump presidency is already shaping up as an even bigger disaster than the first.

FBI= Famous but incompetent.  They are mostly book worms and computer geeks.  Very few have any real field experience.  Add, there are way too many law enforcement agencies in the U.S.  And, they mostly hate each other and do not trust one another.  The entire system needs a do over, updated training adjustments and renewed focus.

Imagine being put in Leg irons for a

Misdemeanor  charge of violating  a congressional j6 committee subpoena!

 

FBI corruption

Maybe Kash was facetious, but he said fire the troublemakers at FBI in DC, send the rest of them out in the field to pursue criminals, and then reopen the building the next day as a Museum of the Deep State. 
I kinda like this guy…

So according to you, when President of USA you should surround yourself with " no " people. People actually against you? Can you elaborate on this?

The failure of not stopping the 9/11 terrorists even after they had been spotted is a good example of the lack of coordination and cooperation of these agencies you speak of.  Things have improved, but now it is local law enforcement that have been ordered not to cooperate with federal agencies.  I am referring to orders by mayors and governors subscribing to the resistance movement regarding immigration issues.

In the past, the U.S. military also had a similar problem.  That too, has mostly been fixed.

It seems that the fastest and most efficient way to fix the problem is to cut funding.

I worked for a guy who almost always consulted with me when new projects came up. I did not always agree with his ideas.  One day he asked how come I was in the office in the morning, but gone most of the day.  I told him I was out in the field making sure no one was ripping him off.  He thanked me and never brought up the subject again.  When I left to start my own business the guy that replaced me was caught stealing thousands of dollars of material.  He died in a traffic accident before he could be prosecuted.

In other words, you can have someone who is loyal, but not necessarily a yes man.

When people ask me what I think Trump will do I tell him to just stop. Conjecture is worthless and just causes emotional distress.

What I tell them is no matter what you can imagine what will actually happen will be much worse.

Identify Trump's policies that would personally affect you and focus on mitigating any harm for yourself and stop worrying about other people and the problems he's going to cause them.

I'm sure Donald Trump feels safer tonight, but does anyone else?

We agree … on looking forward to the confirmation hearings and the information brought forth. We can also agree on constant review of laws, regulations and agency oversight. We disagree on Patel being the person fit to carry out a review … I can only judge him on his pledge to shutter the FBI building and opening it the next day as a museum to the deep state and his published enemies list. Yes, I trust he will be summarily stopped …

I'm assuming Wray resigned to protect himself financially. It's a pity he did not stay on in order to give trump brief with firing him. His proposed replacement by trump seems to be a complete prat, like many of trump's nominees. Plus trump filling a number of posts with unqualified family members - nepotism.
