I really don’t think it’s that hard. Start with the supervisory agent in charge of the field office for southern NY and tell him to get in their car with the documents and deliver them to her office by COB or they are fired (or sent to Minot in the winter lol).
When they don’t show up, fire/transfer them effective immediately and give the same ultimatum to next in line the next morning. Fire/transfer if they do not. Rinse and repeat.
Can you guarantee that that is not already being done?
The rinse and repeat cycle would take time I would think.
IMO, if the entire field office is insubordinate firing them all would be no loss to the country. Insubordination should never be tolerated and is sufficient cause for legal termination.
I think it would be pretty hard to tie some metrics to where the insubordinate line is drawn.
I guess I should have better stated the "nobody in the FBI" part. My feelings are that 90% of any failure to cooperate would be from the upper management/top of the food chain within the FBI.
I don't think most of the agents at the lower levels that actually do work are pushing back. I saw a poll where a huge majority of the agents were glad to see the new administration get seated and also applauded KP being confirmed as Director.
