The DOJ has serious management problems at its highest levels. Problem is that employees are expected to protect top management at the expensive of FBI charter. Smoking guns keep pointing to top DOJ management - without effective changes.

FBI lab fakes or corrupts lab reports. Failure of FBI lab reports was suspected widely - except in top DOJ.

FBI agents are acutally spies for the KGB because FBI management would often promote those with 'people skills' over those who could actually accomplish tasks. A recent TV movie demonstrates the problem.

FBI management orders translators to not work too fast - to justify a budget increase. Translations that were needed that day instead were withheld for two and three weeks. An agents previous day's work was deleted from a computer because she worked too fast. Another translator was the girlfriend of the spy whose wiretaps she was translating. When reported, the whistleblower instead was repremanded. Girlfriend left the country long before DOJ management understood what they had been told.

FBI agents in Arizona and Minnesota both had enough information to have uncovered the WTC attack - but were stifled by management who, it appears, never worked in the field.

FBI agents had to take work home because even home computers did more and were probably more secure than FBI equipment. Furthermore, top FBI management knew of this problem for years and refused to confront the problem - fear of innovation.

These are all problems directly traceable to top DOJ management. Where is the top level management shakeup? Those with 'people skills' will say the right things. Management with extreme bias is easily told the right things - facts be damned. There is no massive shakeup because there is no effective leadership in the DOJ and has not been for some time.
