Kyle,
Episode 545 when task is divorced from purpose.
You were on fire today! I think you are appropriately fired up about the lack of action at the FBI. I agree personnel changes are necessary in order to change the FBI culture. They all went to the holocaust museum just like you. You are right, if they forgot that lesson and did the wrong thing anyway they should go. If they were threatened, then their supervisor should go.
I remember Bongino talking about TOTAL PERSONNEL WARFARE being necessary on his podcast. I found it on his X on 1/10/25. Where is it Dan? Cash? Anyone? I realize we are talking about families and pensions but sorry, that’s the job. Do it or leave.
I have a belief that Cash and Dan were talking the talk during the transition which led Trump to pick Dan for DD. Now the Do matters. Maybe they need to go to a Linda McMahon seminar.
Perhaps what is required here is legislation that converts government service into being vetted in social security. It would apply to those with less than 20 years service to not see all their efforts disappear. This would allow people to move on in peace with a level of security.

Out of curiosity , while grappling with the betrayal of yet an unchanged FBI (despite our guy winning the office) I asked Grok for some data mining. And something interesting was uncovered. I recall Dan saying that the Crimes he had investigated were financial crimes.
Could they have been loosely connected in the past, that gives him some sense of false loyalty? Worth further investigation? Not really I don’t see it changing. But I find the dichotomy of their behavior infuriating & fascinating.
Here’s what Grok had to say:
There’s no definitive evidence that Steven J. Jensen and Dan Bongino worked together during their time in the U.S. Secret Service. Here’s a breakdown based on available information:
