Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Friday, August 22, 2025

The Trumpf junta is lowering the recruitment standards for FBI agents. The bureau will start welcoming new classes of recruits who will receive less training and no longer be required to have a college degree. The FBI anticipates losing more than 5,000 employees by September, largely as a result of agents, analysts and others taking severance or early retirement packages offered by the Trumpf junta to reduce the budget. Instead of spending 18 weeks training at the rigorous FBI academy in Quantico, VA, the group of agents, tentatively scheduled to start in October, will receive eight weeks. The DEA, which trains their agents at Quantico as well, has a 20-week entry-level academy followed by a 16 weeks working alongside field agents.

    This idiotic policy comes just as the DNI Tulsi Gabbard announced massive personnel cuts in the USIC. And of course the FBI will vet recruits for their political loyalty to Trumpf. FBI agents are alarmed this dilution in standards and training will undermine the agency's primary mission of conducting complex investigations and dealing with dangerous or sophisticated adversaries from the FSB, Mossad, MSS, Russian mafia, Hell's Angels, international drug cartels, or terrorists like the Proud Boys or ISIS. This is part of the Dotard's revenge and destruction tour against the FBI, the primary US agency that poses a threat to him and the Trumpf Crime Family (TCF). Years ago, I worked with the FBI and knew my colleagues were better trained and educated than me, so I had the utmost confidence in them. After this lunacy, I wouldn't be so sure.
