Trump's people seem to have fired everyone competent from the FBI.

Nothing but DUI hires left

The crazy thing to me is that I've never seen so much noptism in our government. Trump is against merit-based hiring, yet he projects DEI as the very thing he himself is most guilty of.

I don't think any president in the history of the United States is more guilty of ignoring competence.

someone with any amount of intelligence might question orders.

they poisened workers and animals with meth, ffs. Why can't the FBI buy an incinerator? Insane they use a shelter from the start for these operations

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

Cheaper and easier for the FBI to use a shelter's incinerator than to equip every field office with an incinerator that would rarely be used.

You don't need one in every field office; just one in each region that several nearby offices can transport narcotics to for destruction.

I'm guessing that adds too much complexity to the whole chain-of-evidence thing.

'it's too much paperwork' is a pretty weak excuse for exposing the public to narcotics residue. The ashes in those furnaces are often collected and returned to families.

I don't understand how this is even possible. Did someone forget to open a chimney flue?

Well, they're cops, and then they fired all the literate ones.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

Dunno. Many police departments in the US have maximum IQ restrictions for new hires.

World's biggest crackpipe.

but local authorities said it can also be used by law enforcement to burn seized narcotics.

The incident was caused when smoke was pushed in the wrong direction because of negative pressure, according to Assistant City Administrator Kevin Iffland.

I guess it’s normal practice to do this, but not normal to be incompetent about it.

Also: hehehe

FBI spokesperson Sandra Barker told CBS News that the agency routinely uses outside facilities for controlled drug evidence burns.

Double funny because her job is a spokesperson, which is the human way of saying barksdog.
