Sounds like the police academy. You don’t have to have a degree and their training is way too short. Why do lawyers have to go through 7 years of school to practice law, but cops are handed a gun and badge after a few months to enforce the law?
Those FBI agents are going to get the shit beaten out of them or worse the moment they step onto the streets.
If you are dumber than fuck your can be like Kash? Is that the messy they are sending?
To qualify all you really need is a 6th grade education, the ability to climb a gym rope and must always wear a red MAGA hat to bed.
"Make FBI dumb again".. just not a good slogan
Funny how incompetent leaders always feel safer surrounded by folks dumber than they are. Kash Pitiful needs 'em scratching their asses and grunting. 🚬😎
And you’re going to tell me that’s the eyes and face of a normal sane thinking man 😂 Hell no
Looks like he took a peek at the Medusa.
😂
If you lower the educational requirements for application, it necessitates reducing the training time from 18 to 8 weeks … … because the new agents are not really “learners”, not really into reading and that whole education thing.
Good luck America. 🫤
Gotta give jobs to all those J6 rioters. Why else?
He didn't pay her anything at the time.
fartface is well known to stiff his contractors
"Meritocracy??? Who in the current Administration has any proven merit for the job they hold???😲
You don’t need a degree to kick in the doors of your political rivals.
Did they also scrap the drug usage restrictions?
I knew people that obtained masters and law degrees to qualify for the FBI. They didn’t join to be glorified security guards and beat cops in tourist towns.
Oh yeah, those recruits are *totally* going to get respected by their peers.
Thug-ification
Army basic training takes longer.
If a Gypsy can be an FBI director, who needs education and training then? 😂
I wonder if they would accept a slightly overweight 64 year old with a bad hip? Just asking for a friend.
Will they take a degree from Trump university?
So... less than what DEI called for, with lower standards to allow garbage people to thrive. Shocker.
I guess Patel wants to match the sub-standard requirements of this Administration.
We shouldn't be surprised that the bar is being lowered to become an FBI agent. The bar is already on the ground to become a republican.
How about the bar to become president? How many felonies do you need, how many children must you abuse?
An expendable thug force requires little education or training
When this admin does the opposite of what it said it would, that’s not irony, it’s fraud.
The director and the assistant director are incompetent AF so it all makes sense.
Magats don’t have college degrees that’s why. Gotta lower the standards to fit the slop they hire
He looks cross-eyed.
You know all those people who become security guards because they couldn't become agents due to being mentally unstable? Welcome to the FBI!
This guy is a total dork
I guess it's perfect if you are only seeking out those who will practice forceful policing (thugs) vs sound investigative work (criminal justice).
Merit based! Merit based! 🙄....only the best people. 😑
Federal Bureau of Imbeciles...
God, how far we have fallen here. It's heartbreaking.
That's right!😖💯‼️
I always wondered what happened to the slow kids in high school now I know !
Sounds about the same as the 🧊 requirements?
Going to make Ruby Ridge and Waco look like picnics.
Do you love Trump? Yes - You're hired No - Investigated by the guy who said Yes
Nothing ... nothing could go wrong
For an administration that campaigned on anti-DEI this is an inverse perversion by the perverted. So do we guess as long as they are maga-loyal & white they pass? If they look like Kash do they have to do extracurricular or just extra drug screening? That guy always looks out of his mind.
Overtraining recruits to be brutal thugs is just not cost effective.
Dumb it down and kill the credibility of the institution!
Jethro Bodean and his merry band of fuckwits
Donald J Trump, Corruptor in Chief...everything he touches, turns to shit.
“I love the poorly educated.”
Lawless crime syndicate Kash Patel- Coup ringleader. He & Chris Miller delayed response during Jan6 Insurrection. Also involved in Classified Docs case. Perjury in Colorado case. Never held accountable.
Please tell me this is The Onion.
They should also not hire democrats period. Due to lawless behavior
They forget the brown guy in charge is one of them and rat him out to ICE?
They want to train new recruits to just follow orders. I can’t think of another valid reason for theses changes.
Patel…..ignorant asshole!
I just listened to Andy McCabe (former FBI deputy director and very smart) on the Unjustified podcast. He had a few things to say about this. It was kind of painful to hear, frankly. Their training program is legendary for good reason.
This is obviously da serous for citizens of this country, but it's dangerous for these new essentially untrained personnel as well.
Dumbing down with the dummies
They’re building a force of followers. No brains. Just do and think what they’re told. Dummies collecting a paycheck.
It's opposite-speak all the way around.
Mall cops assemble!
OMFG
training to be a thug takes less education than training to be an investigator
Proving once again. They dont know WTF they're doing. Distract, deflect and destroying.😟😳👎
New requirement: have both eyes in the same socket.
The dumber they are, the easier it is to convince them to do unlawful acts. Makes sense. 👀
So local cops are better trained? “Awesome.”
When dipshit maga is your base and the rancid pool you have to draw from...yeah, you WILL need to lower all the standards. I'm shocked they haven't done recruitment drives directly at kkk gatherings and cross-burnings.
I'm sorry. All I see is a cross-eyed Oompa Loompa. No offense meant to Oompa Loompas.
You gotta be shitting me
Man, future FBI shows are going to be stupid
Criminal minds mixed with Dukes of Hazard
Everything. What a shame this administration is low functioning low IQ’s , bottom leadership For Sure.
Easier for the arrested charges to be thrown out of court
I would say it will get us attacked. However, any aggressor with half a brain could see we are already being attacked, from within.
For some reason, the nation's changes to the agencies that protect our security just make me feel less safe. Keep wondering if this leaves us open to another 9/11, or some type of cyber disaster.
So now the FBI will be another source for Trump’s goon squad, just like ICE.
Unreal. We are less safe, less free, less healthy and have less money.
Guess what? Qualified people don’t want to work for the pos Ka$h
Pfffft my manicurist gets more required education FFS
America is unreal
Only the best people
In my heart of hearts, I pray there is a shadow FBI in training to take the imbeciles on. The men and women who were fbi agents, and those who would meet the former criteria.
To take them out!
The culture of organisations starts at the top. The standards set by leaders are an example for all. So when POTUS is a convicted felon with terrible morals.. US - unambiguously stupid
Omg. Make it stop.
Education is a risk factor in fascist regimes.
Too bad this isn't the kind of training the SS- which provides security doesn't get.
Don't worry. I'm sure they will post someone of Big Balls stature to oversee the new crop of High School dropout recruits. Oh wait - they all work for ICE and DHS. Well gramps needs something to do after his Walmart greeter shift is done.
Once ICE is disbanded they’ll all be running (waddling) to join the FBI instead 🤣
Or advertising their services as “consultants” or “technical advisors” for crappy tv shows! 🤣
Signing up with their mark.
It’ll be a swastika instead of an X 😂😂😂
Everything.
WTF!
Too smart to be a cop? Not smart enough for the CIA? Have we got a job for you!
They're looking for thugs. An education isn't required for brutality and lawlessness.
cf: McNamara's Morons vvaveteran.org/36-3/36-3_mo...
There is no returning from this shit. The normal you knew. Or thought you knew. Is never coming back.
This guy can see who he hired and it’s outcome at the same time
😂😂😂 Nail beauticians have stronger requirements
If by wrong do you mean those boys with short fuses start violence and then Orange Poopy Pants sends on the military and declares Martial Law? Yeah, that's the plan. And it will work. I haven't heard of a single solution to that outcome. Someone prove me wrong.
OMG. Every PTSD reject from cop school will think they're Elliot Ness, but not nice!!
Lowering academic and intellect standards is a prerequisite for filling the ranks of the FBI with low IQ Trump supporters. Patel and every other member of this criminal administration all need to be locked up in prison for life.
A donkey by any other name.
Shocking. These persons should work successfully against criminals? Are your political leaders strong consumers of crime series (netflix, prime, Disney...)? Real police work is otherwise. Are their bodyguards also only with 8 weeks training? If not, they only wants Security for themselves.
You’ll wind up with an entire agency filled with Gary Busey’s and Keanu Reaves’.
I personally don't have the ability for this, but everything they do, seize their momentum and turn it on its head. This is an opportunity. INFILTRATE. The fckn fbi will not be doing legit ✔️s Yes i wish i had the ability myself. Anonymous, please help us fill out about 50 million applications.
You can be cross eyed too!
.. His eyes look better here ... Looked like he was in a K-Hole the other day ... Bug Eyes ..
We’re abt to have the ‘poorly educated’ as our principal crime fighters…dumb chasing the dumber…smfh
Be honest. Given the change in job descriptions, a new FBI recruit needs only a 2-day orientation and some tommy guns.
They're going to recruit all of the testosterone driven psychopaths that couldn't pass the evals to become a cop.
People will be disappeared or murdered.
Only 2% of Trumpists have a Bachelor's
Federal Bumbler Investigations
Is the training now moved to Vegas?🤣😅😆😂
🥺
Nothing good🙄 JFC
You're gonna get loads of angry overweight adulescent incels.
I will bet that the Jan 6 mob are already in line.
Crazy eyes is unfit.
Government needs well trained qualified individuals, who have integrity and competence, otherwise many people will be harmed.
Can I smoke weed or nah?
Calling all Pride Boys 😮💨
This won't be the only requirement they drop, how else will guys like Dean Cain and the Proud Boys get in.🙄
All you have to do is pass a loyalty test to the king.
California: 6months for police and highway patrol. 10&1/2 months for a cosmetology license👮✂️ 🤷🏻♀️
We went from a capable Clarice Starling to "I applied for this because it sounds neater than working at Hardees."
Could it be the available work force that could pass #FBI hiring criteria does not give two shits about working with or for these cabinet lunatics? Lowering the hiring age is the only solution lesser experienced managers could conjure up. This will end badly.
Next thing you know, he will make Harvard will award degrees to certain students who have a D- average...
Clearly, looking at many of the Harvard graduates in Congress, they should not have been able to graduate.
So, DEI?
Absolutely nothing, right?
Just means less time learning what is illegal and can scrap classes on the Constitution
They want the same kind of idiots who’ve joined ICE🤬🤬🤬🤬
Next on Criminal Minds: the criminals are working down the hall
Watch the incells flock to join! They're protecting CHILD RAPISTS! It's a great look. 👍
FYI- even the BA minimum was a drop from the old standards of law degree, Accounting degree, or MA.
Lower IQs are more comfortable with violence and will follow any order no matter how illegal. German police agencies did the same from 1933 on. Got rid of the educated professionals and brought in the moron thugs.
Ok, hear me out, FBI, if you're reading this. One has a somewhat notorious career in the Underworld. Some of those unsolved crimes? Who really Knows about those. But can you Imagine what organized crime With a badge could Do? And not that effete Wall Street crime. One means a bit of Business.
WTF
Trump loves the uneducated, and welcomes people, white preferably, who are blissfully unaware of their own incompetence. Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
When we were kids, the joke was that FBI stood for Fart Blowing Idiots. Turns out it was true.
wow. They obviously want people who can be influenced, not people who can think for themselves. ICE 2.0
Donald Trump is lowered the standards of America. We’re a cess pool of dirt bags and criminals.
There's going to be a surge in Barney Fife field agents. It's a crude way to degrade the agency from within and weaken it's mission, but effective. And with that buggy-eyed, mentally unbalanced poser Kash Patel running the show, I'm certain it will go swimmingly well. 🫤
This is unbelievable. They are looking to hire those cops from Mayberry.
Hashish can't have agents smarter than himself🫤
⚡️⚡️ Is their new logo.
Of course they did. How else can Trump hire J6ers to the FBI?
fbi has never been worth a warm bucket of spit though. degrees or not. an agency that started w j edgar hoover in a ball gown using agents to make porn of his enemies while denying the existence of the mafia while tossing kids in prison for partying for FIFTY YEARS as epstien cavorted can fkn go
They want no-nothings. Will be like the Keystone Cops.
Jeezus
Gotta get them Poud Bois and booogerlo sucker in there some how. those fucks could not qualify as a cop in lake city TN. The stupid is hilarious.
In the land of the blind .....
They don’t want anyone better qualified than ka$h. I also hear everyone will be required to look more crazy than ka$h.
They could turn out just like Patel
Because trump can't recruit elite, intelligent people.
Wow gonna be a great time to commit interstate crime in the US. Sure hope nothing coming up that requires shipping massive amounts of weapons and explosives across state lines from red states to blue to fight against tyrants. Because the Feebs just got feebler
We are going to have a bunch of kids running around with weapons and thinking they are so cool
I thought they wre already at Rock bottom when he appointed this fuckwad. Good God.
JFC..
They want 'em young and dumb and full of cum. Hitler did that too.
Only the best people right now?
Loves the poorly educated!!!
Bonkers.
Creating an army of ignorance & intolerance——Aligned to the Dumb Fuck Dictator they will serve in the future.
So basically, any Yahoo with an axe to grind and a penchant for white nationalism and a pro at playing Call of Duty in their basement can apply! 🙄
Are you writing the job description for the FBI now?
#FBI #DOJ #SCOTUS protect the #PedophilePresident You just need to be ok with a child rapists Seems like a betrayal of non-pedo and non-raping Americans.Can’t trust any of the people that are supposed to be protecting citizens. How easy they were to turn #StarsandStripes are dying. For #Trumpstein
"Apperance must be sweaty and confused or open to be laminated"
I don't know what 'open to be laminated' is but I imagine it as being squeezed between 2 hot pieces of thick plastic, and I say, HELL YEAH!
It's a term I've seen on the internet ti describe the plastic surgery that many maga women and a few maga men (usually below 50s) get. I liken it to them self-mutilating as a signal of devotion to such incredible sin. That they are no longer human. They are something else.
Thank you! I know what you mean now. They really do hate themselves a lot.
I should! 😄
Don't forget to add, "Democrats need not apply."
Complicit Democrats Preferred
And you know they're all going to be white males- mostly southerners I would imagine.
A majority will be J6 jack asses.
Don’t forget pledging unwavering loyalty to Dear Leader.
Yep.
Liddle Kash has Michelle Bachmann's CRAZY EYES! This regime is filled with freaks of nature!
So it takes the same requirements to work at Cracker Barrel as it does the FBI?
And, hey! Here’s a gun — no training required.
The dumbing-down of America continues. Poorly-educated people are more likely to be obedient servants of the dictator even when ordered to break the law.
As does the third worlding of America.
Yep, easier to just have thugs
The lunatics are running the asylum.
Something fcked up every day. Jfc we cant have one day without more stupid nazi bullsht happening? Historically the FBI is the Republicans baby. They always fight tooth and nail for more more more. If trump is cutting the FBI as a republican, is it cuz he dosent want them used against him?
My 18 y/o just started barber school. It's 9 months long and requires 1500 hours of training before they can test for their certification.
It truly makes one wonder if there is a plan of some sort or is every decision simply random.
And the 1 pull up requirement. The requirement Hegseth couldn't do.
Rasing the standards by lowering them: that's the Trump philosophy in a nutshell.
Other than everything?
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/COINTEL... They had college degrees. I’d burn them since flags are off limits. They are both as useful as tits on a bull
Nazis back in the FBI? As if they ever left
More orcs for Sauron.
Loyalty over qualifications is the standard for this regime.
What a disgrace this man is! But no different from anyone else in this administration. All working overtime to destroy country, with not a single peep from Republicans in Congress or Senate.
That’s an incredible salary for high school only. Yet teachers make half of that- literally, and require a degree. Go figure. Priorities?
Full Blown Incompetency. Much like ICE, but may also be allowed to wear Jedgar's silky undies.
Water seeks it's own level
"Famous But Incompetent" takes on a whole new meaning.
"They could also lay off all those background check investigators"...Trump probably
Realizing that half of his cabinet would not qualify to get any of the jobs that they supervised... Trump took a radical shift to Bro-ocracy. Elon would (and maybe did) approve.
Yikes 😳
