Last week, William Webster, the only person to have served as both the Director of the FBI and of the CIA, wrote a letter to all Senators urging them not to confirm Kash Patel or Tulsi Gabbard to the FBI and DNI, respectively. Here is his statement on Pres. Carter's passing:

I know you can only try and inform, and for your ignored efforts, I weep.
Kash Patel will destroy the fbi, and he will do it knowing nearly everyone connected to that agency voted for it.
Let's see your proof.
This is misleading at best.
This isn’t a school play where people are driven by morals. This a bad movie with super wealthy villains and stupid henchmen.
Thank you for sharing this, Asha. He sounds deeply worried about the state of the nation, doesn’t he?
Aren't you curious?
I choose all.
appears in Trump, Republican andMAGA, laws do not apply. They are immune. What in the name of God has happened to our country 😢

Our politics has always been rough. But not rabid, like now.
Since cops were already doing racist, classist, sexist shit it ofc meant imprisoning more Black
So yeah fuck this guy and everyone else at the CIA.
FBI - ehhh, depends. They're responsible for catching pedophiles and serial killers (ya know - people who actually pose a danger to society.)
He also got to see the end of law and order and democracy ..
how's that feeling?
It reminded me of President Biden, too.
🤔
You seem very confused.
Yes "destroy"
FBI was founded (as BI) by Roosevelt and Bonaparte as a political police. It has been mainly that ever since.
the very concept of the FBI is unAmerican.
we may disagree on whether the Fbi should stay or no. No problem, this is America. We can disagree and still be friends.
Do we disagree on the founding of the BI/FBI? do we disagree on the reasons? Do we disagree that the Fbi has always been largely a political police?
Is there any place in American democracy for any kind of political police? (fbi or something else)
I say none whatsoever.
What say you?
And anyone else who feels inclined to jump in
It’s the bottom of the 9th and we’re losing. Better start acting like it.
a sexual predator who incited an insurrection was worthy of the presidency. 😔
This is a bigger topic than I will engage in w/strangers on social media, but know I am far from silent on this issue (& others), & many churches/people are in accord w/my thinking. Not as many I would like, & I take your point, but it’s a mistake to paint all w/ same brush.
