Well, it’s pretty obvious by now, especially with the resurgence of the claims of him raping a child, that mere accusations are proof that he did it because “he’s a liar and I can imagine him doing it.”

So they don’t care about the truth.

With context, it wasn’t harsh at all. Long story short, she said, “Hey, I’m going to wear a tiara to graduation.”

Staff responded, “Uh, what? No, you’re not.”

Classmates advised her, “That’s a terrible idea; don’t do it.”

Despite this, she proceeded to wear it anyway. I saw a picture of it myself—an actual tiara.

I know it’s hearsay but someone I know over there that interacted with the class a lot told me she was very entitled and insufferable know-it-all.

She continued into HSISAT while management figured out what to do. News of the incident reached her SAC and everyone at her office, including the Executive Associate Director (the top HSI leader), who was furious.

During the investigation, she was instructed to write a statement about what happened but lied about it. Since she was on probation, they were probably going to fire her for insubordination. However, she made it easy for them by lying during the investigation, which is called “lack of candor.”

She lied on a written statement she was told to make after the incident. So technically lack of candor, right? I think it was something like she got permission or no one told her not to wear when several people told her she can’t do it.

Perfect example of why you never lie to your supervisors/HR/OPR. If she told the truth, said “I was dumb, it won’t happen again”, she probably would have kept her job. I’m not saying she should have, I’m glad they canned her but just an example.

Yeah, that’s what I meant. They were awesome ladies but they would never have to leave the building, not even their cubicle unless it was to get something from the printer. But I guess ERAs do much interaction with the public in different offices so I see why they might need them.

Yes, but having lived in LA in the past and knowing 1811s that work in LA/NYC/SF, it is an insane cost of living and you either need roommates or dual income. Also, you have to remember that those cities and the AUSAs (for the most part) by extension are not very aggressive on crime. Even crimes that you’d think everyone is on the same page about, like child exploitation.

Can’t answer your second for sure but I’m sure it happens. Especially with the magic voodoo box.

I think things that would nix your chances would be any disciplinary problems and stuff done off duty like DUIs (yes, some agents keep their jobs after these).

According to some whistleblower FBI recruiters, FBI literally been hiring people like some girl that had a, no joke, Gender Studies degree and only 3 years of work experience at Starbucks. So if those people can get hired then I’m sure you and I have a chance haha.

Ah, well I do know that FBI makes everyone go through the same hiring process. They don’t care that you’re an 1811 and will make you do a whole new background investigation and polygraph just like the guys off the street. The only parts that your 1811 experience would help is in the Meet & Greet and Interview as you’ll have the experience to give great answers to the questions. Your time as a 1811 can also prove to them that you can “fit in”.

The way they don’t tell you your duty location until you’re in the academy (although someone that responded to me says it is different now?) and having to do their full academy are the biggest reasons I am iffy about even applying.

My #1 agency to get with eventually is USPIS and through their lateral program.

At the time of FO and not 6 weeks in (or whatever time it was)?

Are you asking about getting hired by the FBI when you’re already an 1811, or about getting hired by the FBI as a new 1811?

They “give you between the top three”? What does that even mean? Do you mean that you choose 5 locations and they give you an offer of three of those? And what’s the point of selecting 5 if they only give you the top three?

And let me get guess, as long as your choices are SF, LA, NYC, Chicago, Detroit, you’ll get it. Yeah, I know and I would never want to work at any of those cities ever.

Anyway, unless they have just changed it, that’s not how I’ve heard it works. You rank all 56 field offices from 1-56. And if you put Indian Country or a big city like the ones I mentioned as your top choices, you have a very high chance of getting them.

Interesting, I’m already an 1811 but am currently redoing my resume so I think I’ll give that a shot and see how it looks. I was thinking about applying to FBI for shits and giggles but not knowing your duty location is pretty bad.

I mean, there’s definitely a clear bias making fun of conservatives. Kripke is pretty clear on where he stands and that he doesn’t like conservatives.

But that being said, it’s his show, he can do whatever he wants and I like the series enough I’m doing a full rewatch from the beginning.

Most conservatives aren’t like that. The ones that are like that are the ones that go online and bitch so they seem to be the vocal majority.

No, we think he is a narcissistic and murderous psychopath just like you do.

I’m somewhat conservative and I’m don’t give a shit. In fact, I laugh at it or am pissed that the actual thing happened.

Like the Jewish Space Lasers, that was hilarious because there some crackpots who actually believe in that shit. Rest assured, a majority of conservatives don’t believe most of the crazy shit this show pokes fun at.

And then the moment where the Speaker says that line to Neuman about rape and how the woman’s body rejects it. I was disgusted to remember that a real POS actually said that. I thought the scene was hilarious, her reaction specifically.

And I thought the “torture” scene where they get Tek Knight to spill the beans by giving his money away to Elizabeth Warren and BLM was one of the funniest scenes this season.

Ultimately, the show turns conservatives into this super caricatured version which is a little on the nose sometimes, you have to admit. At some point, I was like: “Okay, I get it, you really want to make Conservatives look retarded (which isn’t hard sometimes haha). Can you focus on storytelling and writing instead?” I do wish they satirized liberals in the same way because there are plenty of dumb things liberals say too.

Like, list examples of each of those for every job in your resume?

Small RACs are the best, unless it wasn’t where you wanted to be geographically. But within the AOR the SAC could move you around at any time so you could have moved next year.

Okay….OP said the same thing. I edited my comment right before you responded so I don’t think you saw it.

Dismantling is not defunding. Yes, they mention dismantling the Department so they can consolidate a bunch of agencies and reform them into a new cabinet level agency that’s even bigger!

The DOJ EOIR for example is under DOJ but they only handle immigration cases. I’ve always thought that was weird and we have different systems, etc. They suggest absorbing them into this new agency and this makes a lot of sense.

Also, they mention combining ICE with CBP to become the Border Security and Immigration Agency (BSIA). While the name needs some work, I’m telling you from the perspective of someone inside ICE (HSI), it’s makes sense to combine them.

I’m saying I condone anything else they say, my point was that some stuff does make sense from an inside perspective.

Dismantle is the not the same thing as defund. Holy shit, brush up on that reading comprehension.

The chapter suggests dismantling it, reorganizing, consolidating a bunch of agencies, and create a new cabinet level agency in place of DHS with over 100,000 employees. That’s not defunding it, dude.

Okay, I’ll bite. I was curious about the DHS stuff as I work there. Just a few things I found in less than 5 mins:

The word “birthright” appears only once on page 803 in the Trade section. Additionally, there is nothing about “defunding DHS and FBI” on or after page 133. In fact, that chapter doesn’t even mention the FBI at all.

Nowhere is there a suggestion to defund DHS; instead, the discussion is about restructuring it and combining certain agencies. On the contrary, they advocate for more funding for these agencies to hire more employees and for other purposes.

As an employee of DHS, I find that much of the proposed restructuring makes sense. For example, combining CBP and ICE seems logical. However, I disagree with the idea that HSI should only focus on Title 8 and 19 crimes.

I am very knowledgeable of the structure of DHS and what it looked like before the Homeland Security Act created it and consolidated all these agencies. They didn’t really get it right and it does need an overhaul.

The proposal to split up the USSS, so they solely handle protection while their investigative responsibilities are transferred to the Treasury, is also interesting. It is well known within the community that the USSS struggles with investigations because agents are often pulled for protection assignments. I know two former USSS agents who moved to HSI, and during their entire three-year tenure with USSS, they didn’t start a single case.

Well, the actual Project 2025 is a real document but this list with page numbers is rife with BS. Take a look yourself and see. Page 133 (and the whole chapter after it) for example mentions none of that stuff.

You got downvoted for telling the truth. I read the whole chapter and it actually advocates for more funding and it doesn’t mention the FBI once. I swear to god no body does their own research anymore. It took like 5 minutes to check it.

Edit: They do mention “dismantling DHS” but mention reorganizing it into a new cabinet level agency with more than 100,000 employees making it the third largest department. And consolidating a lot of smaller agencies within it.

Dismantling /= Defunding as OP seems to think in a response to one of my other comment.

Wow, way to be a patronizing asshole dude. You could have gone without that first sentence; you questioned my decision which in turn gets an explanation. That’s how human conversation works.

If you weren't concerned, you sure put a lot of effort into sounding like you were. A concern can be a matter of interest, and I appreciated your "matter of interest" initially, but now I don't.

As for leaving money on the table, let me break it down for you. I made $9,900 tax-free from the BAH for 9 months of GI Bill use. If I had used it on classes instead of OJT, I would have only made $4,500.

Also, do you not know what I mean by “60% GI Bill”?

The TA is use-it-or-lose-it, and as I mentioned, I had unused TA by the end of last year. I should have also mentioned that I already had about 2 years of credits before I got the GI Bill.
