#1 Yes. Look at Law Enforcement people to fill that slot. Lie in the FBI. And stop listening to the idiocrats on anything important.
They are all stupid, ignorant, brainwashed, and un-able to learn.

Democrats are what is wrong with the world.

I nominate politically neutral, non-showboat, Chief David Brown.

From Wikipedia.com:

A Dallas native, Brown is a graduate of South Oak Cliff High School and attended the University of Texas at Austin before enrolling in the Dallas police academy, originally with the intention of becoming a prosecutor.[3] He earned a Bachelor of Science from Dallas Baptist University, in 1999 and an MBA from Amberton University, in 2001 and graduated from the FBI National Academy and the FBI National Executive Institute, the Senior Management Institute for Police, the National Counter-Terrorism Seminar in Tel Aviv, and the United States Secret Service dignitary protection seminar. He is certified by the State of Texas as a master peace officer and a police instructor.

#4 Chief Brown show US how it is done.
but out of the whole FBI, you cannot find a technical expert to fill that rank?

What the fr#$k Trump. These appointments cannot be un-filled.

#5 I'd like to see a strong cop as director; one who has allegiance to the Constitution, a non-partisan, is respected within and outside the FBI and one who loves his country, the USA...and dear Santa, a pony.

You don't reward Deep State. The old 'reward failure, you get more failure' approach gets you what you have in the swamp. One of the reasons people voted Trump.

#8 The Democrats reject Lieberman because he is a Democrat. Their line, that their people strongly believe, is that Trump is out to destroy our Constitution and create a right wing police state. This would presumably have to be done through the FBI. Appointing a Democrat to head the FBI makes that claim almost impossible to believe.
Naturally, the Democrats have to oppose it. Such an appointment makes their antics seem malevolent or absurd to all but imbeciles.

#10 This morning on CBS I saw John McCain endorsing Lieberman. That's enough for me...Lieberman is unacceptable.

#11 so I notice McCain and Pelosi both are acting dain-bramaged; you supposed we've reached the Boomer expiry date?

#12 I dunno about any expiration date. McCain and Pelosi both lost their marbles a long, long time ago.

Well, they're actually both members of the Silent Generation--like Charles Manson and Bernadine Dohrn.

#15 Chief David Brown sounds like a great nominee. He is a well educated professional, and has had much interaction with the FBI.

Another no-nonsense nominee would be Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clark. We need no BS type folks that are not denizens or previous denizens of the swamp. Retreads like Lieberman are a joke.
