I've never seen such a clear-cut case of fucking crazy eyes in a "man:"
That's drug induced and you cannot convince me it isn't.
What a bitch.
government of fragile masculinities
So wait... It's not Tiny Dick Syndrome?
Enforcing polygraph testing will invariably make people less trusting of you. There needs to specific reasons that target specific people.
As if anyone trusted Patel anyway.
literally a 30 rock episode
should polygraph about his crazy eyes.
What a dork-ass loser.
Is polygraph test reliable ? Doesn't it fall under pseudoscience ?
It's more of an anxiety-detector. It has no basis in fact.
It measures things accurately but this has absolutely nothing to do with identifying if someone is telling the truth or not.
You can even train to beat them, so it’s definitely not a reliable method.
And, I would assume, if anyone had done that training it would be FBI agents.
Lol right? This seems more like a "can you beat a polygraph test" test, than a loyalty test
It is not reliable at all, and yes, it is widely considered to be psuedoscience. Yes, this is a batshit insane scenario
Yes, morons still believe in it, yes, he is a moron.
That and just looking for an excuse.
MAGA: The real snowflakes
The “original” snowflakes. “I can’t drink from the same water fountain as a colored person!” Type of people.
Yes I support the United States Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic 😏
And the ones behind the FBI director's back.
At this point, we're gonna end up have two "congress", two "supreme court", two "president". Two groups of people having their own definitions and interpretations of what "The Constitution" means.
A Divided States of America
Coming soon in the 2029 season of ~~USA~~ DSA (Divided States of America)
I welcome that. It is better than living in the Fascist States of America for the rest of my life.
What a damned candy ass lol
This is great news. This means they are think he is regarded.
I don't think so.
They're weeding out non-loyalists because the fascism is going to be ratcheted up tremendously, and for that to happen, they need people without a conscience. True believers.
The fragilest of beings
Republicans/Conservatives in a nutshell.
All these fascists are such little weeny piss babies.
And all the alpha bros look up to them, how embarrassing.
Good thing polygraphs are junk science that doesn't work literally at all.
Good thing the system already selects for people that can pass polygraphs without much issue.
It is also junk technology.
Isn't the FBI trained to beat polygraphs though?
Only in as much as they know it’s bunk that only works if the participant believes it does.
