And any BS about rank and file, **** them too. They are just as complicit in everything as they’re doing the actual field work and know the results.

Wow, talk about painting with a broad brush. I came from the private sector and started working for the FBI as a uniformed police officer (read highly-trained (eventually, mostly on my own efforts) glorified security guard) in 2006 and was quite proud of the agency. Then Comey completely ruined that with the politics that became blatantly obvious with his awful and disgusting actions. I couldn't hate that sanctimonious prick or what I think he did to our reputation any more if my life depended on it; then we find out about the agents that plotted right along and perpetrated all this against Trump.
You are 100% right to think the Bureau has become a disgrace but there are also are a ton of employees who agree with you. Personally, I now run the operations center of the Philadelphia office and have no qualms about pointing out the crap we get into when it's deserved, like all the grandmas we're locking up for Jan 6. Matter of fact, I've been in to see people in our executive management on a number of occasions to ask about stuff, not believing it could be true or trying to see if there was another side to the story. For example, we are still locking up and actively looking for the terrorists that tried to burn down the country all last summer. But we only get publicized for the Jan. 6 people because that's all the media care about. I wish we could put out the word more but our powers that be, choose not too, sadly. BUT, like so many other agencies and businesses and communities, there are people who feel both ways about what's happening in our country. Support personnel, read "non agents," are about as complicit in this crap as the guy who sells the tires to the guy who grows the crops where the sugar is made to sell to woka cola. Support personnel, secretaries, electricians, computer IT people, facilities managers, HR personnel have NOTHING, ZERO, NADA to do with field operations, what the squads are looking at, who they pick as a snitch, how they work.
I do agree, the guys that tried to blow up Fort Dix in NJ years ago are an example. There wasn't a 67 IQ if you added them all up. NO WAY they hatched that plot all on their own or had the slightest idea how to make any of it come together. I felt very strongly that they were entrapped and this Michigan thing is looking much the same. Don't get me wrong, there are a bunch of, mostly younger, newer employees who are just as woke as can be and I hate every one of them for that. I do my best to inject a little reality into the world of those that work for me, not as carefully as I should in this day and age as I am sure I run afoul of the hatch act regularly, but I'd like to think I'm a decent boss and am just passing along things I've learned and experienced to people who have not learned and experienced much of anything but what they were force fed in school.
So, I get your frustration but don't for a second think that you're even close to right on what the average, non-agent, FBI employee knows or has even an inkling about where field operations are concerned. And I have met a TON of truly superb people working here, along with plenty of the typical "everyone owes me a living" career government employee too. And no, I'm not going to just throw away 15 years of work toward my pension and retirement because the jackasses at the top of my agency and quite a few below that, have lost their moral compass and forgotten what we are supposed to stand for. I'd like to think I can still be part of what's good about what we do. I continue to do my job and support what, as I see on a day to day basis, is pretty good work, with lots of local law enforcement partners. We lock up a lot of truly awful people for things that they should be locked up for every day. If the situation continues to degrade to the level that it did in the collusion delusion and now this type of thing in Michigan, at some point it just may be time to find a company with better leadership.

"Why "zombies"? Because calling it 'training to stop a rioting, starving, panicking, desperate mob after a complete governmental financial collapse apocalypse' is just too wordy." or in light of current events: training to stop a rioting, looting, molotov cocktail throwing, skinny jeans wearing, uneducated bunch of lemmings duped by, or working directly for, a marxist organization attempting to tear down America while hiding behind a race-based name
