FBI -- firing of staff at top levels but not by Musk's raiders

 One FBI Lawyer was removed from a key job

overseeing human resources and notified while

on medical leave.  Others have been forced out

of jobs, typically with no explanation.  A succession

of job agents, all women, were given an ultimatum

Take a different post or be forced to retire.

. . .It is not clear how Director Patel is reaching

such arbitrary and vindictive decisions, but former

FBI officials say such removals would typically be

set off by behavior that warranted being investigated

and adjudicated. . .

Not Since 20 Jan. 2025 - - - - - The FBI's increasingly

pervasive use of the polygraph / lie-detector technology

has only intensified a culture of intimidation. . . Former

officials say, senior executives among others were being

polygraphed at a "rapid" rate.
