COINTELPRO was an FBI operation directed by Hoover, and we only know about it because some people burglarized the FBI office in Media, PA., and they disclosed the information to a press that was then unafraid to disclose it. I could definitely see Kash Patel running an operation like that. The FBI directors are limited to 10 year terms because no one wants another FBI director like Hoover.

Add that the FBI's nasty practice of burglary was also exposed by the Socialist Workers Party lawsuit against the FBI.
Kathy, 10 years or less, given recent history. That position is once again no longer arm's length from the president.
