“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.

This is what happens when you elect a degenerate, he'll bring other degenerates to positions that they would never have gotten in a normal situation.

    Why would human trafficking victims be denied a job a the FBI? He is talking about trafficked individuals who were forced against their will into sexual acts with animals.

    he’ll bring other degenerates to positions that they would never have gotten in a normal situation

    If you truly believe victims are degenerates, you need to go work on yourself before sharing opinions on the internet.

    The idea that such victims exist is a stretch. That is to say ones that were forced into bestiality as children, sought out a career in the FBI, and were rejected upon revelation that they were victims. The first two conditions I would expect to be vanishingly rare, and that last one should nail the coffin shut. I don't believe a functioning FBI wouldn't be able to make exceptions for agents that would be qualified if not for conditions far outside their control as children.

    Far more believable that Kash has sex with animals and wanted to hire his buddies.

    I don’t believe a functioning FBI wouldn’t be able to make exceptions for agents that would be qualified if not for conditions far outside their control as children.

    The entire point of the article is that there was exactly that limitation and the rules are now coming into line with your prior expectation of how the rules should work.

    From the article:

    multiple individuals have been disqualified from applying for the agency because they were victims of human-trafficking-related bestiality.

    the FBI has had a number of applicants in previous years who suffered sexual abuse in their past, causing questions about prostitution, bestiality, or other similar issues to affect their background check process through zero fault of their own. Previously, those applicants would be barred from consideration. Now they can be considered.

    “Applicants who have engaged in bestiality means they were victims of bestiality because they were forced to do so,” replied Patel. “At this FBI we are not going to criminalize and prevent victims from serving.”
