You are absolutely right to point out their glaring deficits. The root of many of these systemic failures—from the catastrophic intelligence silos leading up to 9/11, to the Robert Hanssen espionage disaster, to the FISA abuses of Crossfire Hurricane, and the catastrophic mishandling of the Larry Nassar investigation—stems from a fundamental, ongoing clash within the Bureau itself.
