The Romans invented the method of military discipline called "decimation". It meant that 'one in ten' members of the Roman Army, no matter their rank or degree of misconduct, by lottery, were slain by the other nine members.
When the New Orleans V.A. leadership, after Hurricane Katrina, had sent their employees in a form of diaspora across the nation to keep them working. Later, the decision of consolidation from over 5,000 to less than 1,500 employees came via an Excel spreadsheet sent to every employee, wherever they had been sent.
I propose that President Trump utilize the Roman principle, along with the demonstrated Excel spreadsheet, among all the employees and agents of the FBI. This time, the lottery can be done via OMB, and can remain objective.
The FBI has demonstrated that it cannot 'deliver the goods' anymore, as it once had in prior years. It is evident that to 'prune the tree', good branches as well as others will have to be so 'pruned'.
And to offer an answer to "How will we fill those pruned slots?", you don't. OMB can delete the positions, thereby saving the taxpayers money from paying possible traitorous individuals.
Not bold enough. Disband the FBI. They can’t or won’t do the job we paid them for.
In the past, we have waged total war on our enemies. The FBI is a domestic enemy.
What about merit?
It is a simple rule of writing: If you are going to use an acronym, you spell out the phrase the first time and add, in parentheses, after it, the acronym. And then just use the acronym the rest of the time.
You do this even with phrases that most of the audience of the paper are familiar with. What does OMB mean?

What’s the difference between a Volkswagen?
And you can bet a supposedly "random" list will turn out to be not so "random" after all.
I'm thinking of an Olympic athlete who was upset about the outcome of a totally random coin flip.
Rot is cultural and systemic - decimation will only make the rot stronger and harder to remove. End it. Start investigative arm of US Marshals.
So is the Democrat Party, and we aren’t even coming out to vote.
Office of Management and Budget. They control the $ and manpower.
I think it’s Office of Management and Budget...but with all the acronyms out there...who knows
I’m with you on this one. Could not make heads nor tails of either statement (not sentences).
I’m not sure its necessary to completely disband the entire FBI, but the President does need to remove the higher-level positions immediately, especially those politically-appointed POS from O-hole and prior administrations. It might do the organization well to remove all leadership down to the regional level and then begin a process where regional directors are interviewed for their jobs. Just a suggestion, but the organization has obviously corrupted by years of liberal scum, which has to rooted out completely or the organization is of no use to the country.
That reminds me of my most memorable horticulture lab class on pruning.
For some reason the lab was rescheduled for Saturday morning and I had other plans for that day. Our assignment was to prune the shrubbery around the administration building. Did I mention other plans, I had planned to go home for a date with my girlfriend.
So being a little ticked off, I vigorously attacked the bush right beside the main entrance. I took that shrub down to nubbins. In my endeavor, I failed to notice the prof standing behind me. He told me to STOP and then called the rest of the class to stand around me. Didn’t feel as smart at that moment, it was an ugly bush even in my eyes.
Then he told the rest of the class. “Now this is how you do it. You remove 70% of the growth and take it back to the growing points, closest to the root.” And then he chewed out the rest of them for being too tenuous and wasting his time on a Saturday morning.
Next spring the bush looked pretty good when I went to pay tuition.
So to put in in horticultural terms, it is the new growth closest to the root that we want....................
Fewer, better fruits and less disease.
Thank you!
Thats why you always write it out first then give the acronym most don’t here
Again, the Left have become Wile E. Coyote....
Just a couple of weeks ago, they built a narrative that NO ONE be allowed to criticize the FBI, now, the Institution is laid bare as incompetent and needing major reform.
I would love to see the President USE the Florida shooting as justification and demand a complete overhaul of the FBI, getting rid of anything that even SMELLS like a Democrat.
I’ve actually been zinged on it in my technical writing. Once I got lazy and figured that since I included the acronym in my glossary there was no need to obey the rule. I had to modify it.
