“Why would you even get into bestiality?” he asked. “We’re not into bestiality,” said Patel.

In a further exchange, Patel explained to Senator John Kennedy, the Louisiana Republican, that previously, regulations had barred anyone who engaged in bestiality “on either side of it.”

“Either side of what, the bestiality?” asked Kennedy. “So you disqualified the animal?”

“We have great canines, but we’re not going to disqualify them,” said Patel.

      They could have just added the word “willingly” to the rule. They didn’t, because they’re trying to hire some fucked up people for the next stage of their reich.

      I feel like the framing of whether they are victims or not is kinda irrelevant. I just don’t want people who won’t say no to fucking animals just to get into a frat to have any kind of authority.

        You know what, I particularly don’t want people who are willing to admit to fucking an animal during a job interview to work.

        Not just at the FBI, kinda anywhere.

      I was sitting here wondering why there would be such a wide spread issue such that they would move to change the rules instead of just covering up some isolated incident.

      I didn’t think of hazing as a possibility, but that totally tracks and just reiterates how totally screwed up their candidate pool is…
