Kash Patel orders redeployment of 1.000 FBI agents.

"Patel orders major redeployment of FBI agents


Ken Dilanian and Michael Kosnar

FBI Director Kash Patel is ordering a major redeployment of personnel, sending 1,000 FBI agents from headquarters in Washington, D.C., to various field offices, three current and two former FBI officials briefed on the matter told NBC News. He also ordered another 500 agents at headquarters to go to the bureau's facility in Huntsville, Alabama.

The reallocation isn't without precedent: When he became director in 1993, Louis Freeh ordered a number of supervisory agents at headquarters into the field. And many at the FBI can do their jobs from anywhere.

That said, the redeployment is likely to cause turmoil for families, as spouses have to leave jobs and their children are pulled out of school. It’s unclear exactly how long those affected will have to make their moves, the redeployment is happening soon, sources said."




Put them in the most dangerous urban areas in America to fight violent gangs. Let's see how many G Men quit.

It is not unusual for Feds to be assigned to offices that require family relocation. When I was with them, the cost reimbursement packages for moving expenses were inadequate to cover all costs, but if you love that job you will do it.

In this case they are moving from one of the highest cost of living areas in the country, probably to one that is significantly cheaper.

They consider themselves "professionals" so should be fine with it. Otherwise, God be with you.

And I can't avoid pointing out, it happens all the time in the private sector and people do it without complaint.

Indeed, that is especially true for the military, They are reassigned at a minimum every 3 years. One tour overseas and one tour stateside, repeated until discharged.
 
Excellent, what good are 1500 agents doing in Washington D.C.? Get them out of the Woke Mecca and get to work tracking down bad guys.
Exactly right. Under Biden, massive numbers of FBI were congested in Wash DC, while Tren de Aragua, MS-13, and Mexican cartels are planting themselves all over the country.

Biden had no interest in going after these creeps. Trump & Patel do. Good.
 
There has been talk over the years of moving more FBI operations into West Virginia where the fingerprinting lab already is. I think they do a lot of the evidence processing there already besides just fingerprints based on blurbs and asides I have seen in various articles over the years. It is near Morgantown so not a horrible far drive from DC.

Forensics has expanded in leaps and bounds since the FBI Fingerprint Lab was established in West Virginia.
The building should be expanded and possibly the FBI Office itself might be better served if it were outside the D.C. area.
