this business about you not treating employees properly because I served under the previous

administration when Democrats willingly turned a blind eye to Biden administration retaliation

against my whistleblowers. They didn't get due process when their careers and lives

were upended. I'm talking about people like Dina Perkins, Jeffrey Veltri, Timothy Dunnan, were removed

from their positions. Several whistleblowers were reported that they targeted FBI employees for their political

beliefs by suspending and revoking security clearances.

One FBI whistleblowers said that Perkins, Vectry, Dunnan, and other FBI leaderships were,

quote, responsible for what happened to me and my family ensuring that

they no longer work at the FBI isn't retribution it's responsible leadership

another whistleblower that is a registered Democrats said they spoke out against

abuses and security clearances processes committed by FBI senior leaders,

particularly Veltri and Perkins, then Perkins and Dunnons suspended their security clearances

and put them an unpaid leave. I'm going to put some more examples like this in the record so I don't

take up a lot of time for my colleagues. Senator, you're watching the war room. This is the,

this is the Senator Judiciary Committee, a grilling of Cash Patel, the FBI director. We're

going to follow this. A lot of news going on this morning. We'll jump out of this maybe moment here. Let's go back to it.

How to be an FBI agent. You've made a decision that local law enforcement folks,

people who've served in law enforcement without a college degree, are able to apply now.

Is that correct?

Yes, sir.

Makes sense to me. So experience out in the field might be as valuable as the college should agree, believe it

or not.
