But the speed with which he has moved to do so has caught officials off guard and prompted concerns over the disruptions it might cause across the agency.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">His timeline for identifying the employees who would go to field offices and Huntsville, Ala., was not immediately clear. Two former senior F.B.I. officials familiar with the matter said that agents would be sent to cities with high crime rates.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In a statement, the F.B.I. said: \u201cDirector Patel has made clear his promise to the American public that F.B.I. agents will be in communities focused on combating violent crime. He has directed F.B.I. leadership to implement a plan to put this promise into action.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Patel had promised to shake up the bureau last year in an interview, making clear his hostility toward an agency he saw as biased against conservatives.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cI\u2019d shut down the F.B.I. Hoover Building on Day 1 and reopen it the next day as a museum of the \u2018deep state,\u2019\u201d Mr. Patel said on the podcast \u201cThe Shawn Ryan Show.\u201d \u201cThen, I\u2019d take the 7,000 employees that work in that building and send them across America to chase down criminals. Go be cops. You\u2019re cops \u2014 go be cops.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">How Mr. Patel reached his decision is not clear, but a group of former and current agents on his advisory team have been taking stock of the bureau\u2019s operations. In an email to the work force on Friday, Mr. Patel said he would be \u201cstreamlining our operations at headquarters while bolstering the presence of field agents across the nation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Patel is not the first director to try to reduce ranks of agents at F.B.I. headquarters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In the 1990s, another F.B.I. director, Louis Freeh, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/archives\/la-xpm-1993-09-03-mn-31275-story.html\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">tried a similar approach<\/a>. Shortly after becoming director, he <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/archives\/la-xpm-1995-02-05-tm-28416-story.html\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">relocated hundreds of agents and supervisors<\/a> from <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/1997\/05\/11\/us\/smooth-start-turns-rocky-for-fbi-director.html\" title=\"\">desk jobs in the capital and other offices<\/a> onto the streets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Even before Mr. Patel took office, the Justice Department <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/01\/30\/us\/politics\/trump-fbi-firing.html\" title=\"\">ordered the forced retirements of several senior workers<\/a> for reasons that remain unclear, eliminating personnel who collectively had vast experience as agents and at the bureau.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Support staff on the seventh floor of headquarters, where top officials sit, were told to relocate to another floor, including the former director\u2019s secretary. Mr. Patel has indicated his desire for a clean break from Christopher A. Wray, the previous director, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/12\/11\/us\/politics\/wray-trump-fbi-director.html\" title=\"\">who resigned before Mr. Trump took office<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">At his Senate confirmation hearing, Mr. Patel <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/01\/30\/us\/politics\/kash-patel-confirmation-hearing.html\" title=\"\">sought to explain his pledge<\/a> to drastically overhaul the bureau. He said that there were about 11,000 F.B.I. employees out of around 38,000 working in the Capitol and surrounding areas like Quantico, Va., where the bureau\u2019s training academy is based. Quantico is also home to the Critical Incident Response Group, which includes behavioral analysts, tactical teams, hostage negotiators and preparing agents for going undercover.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cI will do that over and over and over again because the American people deserve the resources, not in Washington, D.C., but in the rest of the country,\u201d he told senators last month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Relocating F.B.I. employees is expensive and doing so would come as President Trump has prioritized a cost-cutting initiative led by the billionaire Elon Musk. The administration has <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/11\/us\/politics\/trump-fbi-employees.html\" title=\"\">already asked for a list of probationary employees<\/a>, among them nearly a thousand agents the bureau has to justify keeping, eliciting <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/01\/26\/us\/politics\/fbi-hiring-freeze-trump.html\" title=\"\">the possibility of swift reductions<\/a> across the agency.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Former F.B.I. officials raised questions about where agents and support personnel should go and which field offices needed the resources.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWhere is he going to put them?\u201d said Chris Piehota, who retired as a senior F.B.I. executive official in 2020. He cautioned that Mr. Patel would have to conduct an inventory of programs and assemble his leadership team before making such big decisions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cYou need to get in there and see behind the curtains,\u201d he said. \u201cHe\u2019s got a difficult balance to maintain between recalibrating the organization and still maintaining the operational effectiveness of the F.B.I.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Shortly after being sworn in by Attorney General Pam Bondi, Mr. Patel expressed his disbelief. \u201cI don\u2019t really fully believe it yet,\u201d he said, adding that any future criticism of the bureau be directed at him, not the rank and file. \u201cThey deserve better,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\"
