re: ELI5: Are the other intelligence agencies as corrupt as the FBI?

So lets say Trump somehow gets re-elected with all the garbage swirling around. will he go scorched earth and do the same to the intelligence communities and thats something they absolutely fear?

honestly i dont think its possible.

because honest people will quit or retire. so its easy to replace honest people who do their job fairly without bias.

but the dishonest corrupt people wont leave willingly and they will sabotage and dig in and when everyone is a bad actor who will force them out?

will you use and trust the CIA to arrest and escort every member of FBI out the building taking their keys, badges and guns away?

if they do then what next? will you use and trust the NSA to arrest and escort every member of CIA out the building taking their keys, badges and guns away?

if they do then what next? who will you use and trust to arrest and escort every member of every corrupt agency out the building taking their keys, badges and guns away?

then comes the military and pentagon which is just as corrupt from top to bottom

it can be done but it will take 10 years or more at least just to make a dent in the corruption even if tomorrow every leadership in every dept was replaced
