Summary
New FBI Director Kash Patel, a Trump ally with no FBI experience, has made unusual security requests, showing distrust of his own agency.
He asked for a private security detail instead of FBI protection and sought a direct secure line to the Oval Office, bypassing the attorney general.
FBI directors since J. Edgar Hoover have maintained independence from the White House, but Patel is closely aligned with Trump.
Known for promoting conspiracy theories, he has also been accused of leading an FBI purge.
The FBI dismissed reports on his requests as “false leaks or distractions.”
I dunno. Do we start off being regular human, or do we make a choice along the way to accept that other humans are worth basic respect until proven otherwise.
Did they choose to be had, or just not choose to be normal?
That’s a “nature vs. nurture” question. Generally, I think racism is a learned behavior. Personally, even as a child growing up in a mostly white area, I didn’t even notice that some of the other kids were black until years later when I looked back on it.
