All out fascism in store

"A memo circulating among at least half a dozen advisers to former President Donald J. Trump recommends that if he is elected, he bypass traditional background checks by law enforcement officials and immediately grant security clearances to a large number of his appointees after being sworn in, according to three people briefed on the matter," the report says. "The proposal is being promoted by a small group including Boris Epshteyn, a top legal adviser to Mr. Trump who was influential in its development, according to the three people."

Although the report states that it's not clear whether Trump intends to enact the plan, it emphasizes that, if he does, "it would allow him to quickly install loyalists in major positions without subjecting them to the risk of long-running and intrusive F.B.I. background checks.

  Raw Story
"Not clear." Have you met Donald Trump?
The report goes on to say that, under the plan, the Trump White House would use private-sector investigators instead of the FBI to do the background checks.
If Trump gets back in, there won't BE an FBI.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
