Need to fire way more than a hundred. They need to be completely gutted. We saw the photos of all those fat young woke agents kneeling as BLM walked by. A hundred would barely touch the home office. The entire DC office needs to go along with the practice of not assigning an agent to run a field office unless they have done a rotation in DC.
They should be stripped of the civil rights division, and of all investigative powers against local police departments and government officials.
The NEW FBI should be minimal. State resources utterly eclipse what they were in the 1930s. There is little to no need for a National Police Department.
The FBI should be reduced to the very basics. Kidnapping, bank robbery, foreign spies, low end bank scams etc.
This new FBI should be lead by a law enforcement professional, not a lawyer or US Attorney or Judge. No FISA no 702.
After what they have done, they should be stripped of anything even remotely associated with politics.
Every remaining FBI employee should also be frozen, no transfers to any other agency. They should be watched with the highest scrutiny, bodycams, etc.
I favor your approach.
I think the FBI is beyond salvation now.
The same problem with the DOJ. Need to put someone in charge that’s not a lawyer to clean it up.
Then there is still the IRS, EPA, Energy, Education, and other three letter acronyms....
I could see firing the entire FBI Washington office. No transfers, immediately leave government service.
Then slowly repopulate it with field office people with a good record on actual criminal investigations.
