The FBI previously refused to hire job applicants if they admitted to hiring sex workers or stealing from an employer — or engaging in acts of bestiality.

In June, the FBI quietly lowered some of the standards it uses when it conducts background checks on would-be federal agents and other personnel. According to multiple sources briefed on the matter, the FBI did so to facilitate hiring in some cases, even if candidates acknowledged they engaged in sexually deviant activities or stole from an employer.

Ya know? I gotta plead ignorance on this one. I've never applied to work for the FBI. So I can't comment on what the process is like....but never had I once considered the fact that the FBI not only asks on the application, and follows up on a background check who fucks animals.

I don't ever have thoughts that people fuck animals. 10 years ago when the epstein stuff came out, I was surprised to learn that not only do grown men fuck kids, but it's also not even that uncommon among the rich.

Now I'm finding out this animal fucking is a big enough problem that it was something they have to look into with applicants.

And even weirder, they have abandoned that barrier to entry.

What the fuck are we even DOING on this planet???

"The FBI previously refused to hire job applicants if they admitted to hiring sex workers or stealing from an employer — or engaging in acts of bestiality." They want sex traffickers and sexual abusers.
