I just hope that it’s not the quality of people that they are hiring these days. I’ve always believed, perhaps naively, that we could always count on the FBI, CIA, Secret Service, U.S. Marshals, etc.
Mid level management has been decimated by not having to tools and backing of leadership to weed out slackers and those that don't have the cojones to do the RIGHT thing. I left federal service after what I saw. It's actually worse than what I describe.
