Trump's FBI Pick Marks Clear "Authoritarian Takeover," Expert Warns


//politics-government.news-articles.net/content/ .. s-clear-authoritarian-takeover-expert-warns.html
Published in Politics and Government on Monday, December 2nd 2024 at 12:00 GMT by Brian Stokes   Print publication without navigation

  • On Saturday, Trump nominated Patel, a former chief of staff at the U.S. Defense Department, to replace the FBI's current director, Christopher Wray, who still has more than two years left in his 10-year term. Trump appointed Wray in 2017 after unceremoniously firing James Comey.

The article from The New Republic discusses Donald Trump's recent comments and actions that suggest an authoritarian approach to governance, particularly focusing on his interactions with the FBI and his former aide, Kash Patel. Trump has publicly stated that if re-elected, he would appoint Patel to a high-ranking position within the FBI, aiming to use the agency to target his political adversaries. This move is part of a broader pattern where Trump has expressed intentions to weaponize federal agencies against his enemies, as evidenced by his previous statements about investigating President Joe Biden and others. The article highlights concerns over Trump's apparent desire to dismantle the independence of the FBI and other institutions, transforming them into tools for political retribution. It also notes the dangerous implications of such actions, drawing parallels to authoritarian regimes where law enforcement is used to suppress opposition.
