‘Listen To Your Emotions’: Whistleblowers Blast FBI-Newark’s ‘Wellness’ Sign And Increasingly ‘Woke’ Culture

Slogans can be used to set the standard for an organisation and motivate people every day to fulfill their duties. This American tradition is exemplified by some of the most prestigious institutions in sport and culture.

For example, University of Notre Dame Football has been around for centuries. “Play Like A Champion Today;” The New England Patriots Have “Do Your Job;” Nike “Just Do It;” President Harry S. Truman “The Buck Stops Here.”

The FBI Field Office Newark, New Jersey. The G-men in One of the most dangerous places in the world Each day in America, we are reminded of these things: “You Deserve Love, Care, And Support” Also available: “Allow yourself to feel, don’t ignore your feelings, try to hear and accept them.”

According to a Whistleblower inside FBI-NewarkThese are not the only ones. “gentle” Each day, messages are sent to the FBI. FBI agents who are charged with fighting Islamic extremists, mafia, gangs, and other criminals have a full-service wellness room that includes massage chairs, yoga, and many more. There is also a bathroom before you enter the room. “reminders” This sign looks almost like it is from HomeGoods. It is designed for a kindergarten classroom.

BONUS! This sign is posted outside the @FBI Wellness room. This isn’t a serious law enforcement agency. The FBI is a joke at best. At its worst, the FBI is an enemy. @Weaponization pic.twitter.com/HFKoK5PO89

Now, as an avowed Patriots fan, there is nothing worse than an outsider criticizing the culture of your team. “Do your job” — a phrase familiar with Coach Bill Belichick — is routinely mocked as the “Patriot Way” and to many represents a no-fun, all-business team. So, this author won’t directly insult the FBI’s questionable signage or compare it to a woke high school California guidance counselor’s office or one of those safe spaces designed for college kids unprepared for life outside a liberal bubble.

So, in that case, we’ll let FBI whistleblower Kyle Seraphin break down the embarrassing sign — as well the wellness program in general.

Seraphin, who spent six years in the bureau working in counterterrorism and counterintelligence, told The Daily Wire this week that the wellness program emulates the “worst and weakest parts of the Woke corporate culture.”

“When the work you do is honorable and rewarding, you don’t need a Wellness Room set aside to gather your thoughts,” Seraphin said. “That used to be called ‘your lunch break.’ But when you hire people whose work doesn’t actually impact the rewarding mission of law enforcement and simply exists for its own sake — perhaps they need to detox from the cognitive dissonance of ‘federal service’ being a federal jobs program.”

Indeed, Friend made similar comments.

“I definitely see a value in activities that could build morale, but I don’t think that it should be done on the taxpayer’s time and dime,” Friend told Daily Wire reporter Brandon Drey. “And when you see things like massage chairs being made available to federal employees to have access to during their workday — as a taxpayer myself, I find that insulting.”

Indeed, it raises the question — how soon will it be before we see one of these now-infamous “Day in the Life” videos from a federal agent:

I’m trying to think how it would go over if I told my Daily Wire boss after a particularly lazy day, “It’s okay to have bad and unproductive days” as the sign at the field office in Newark says. Something tells me I would be out of a job.
