Anxious to see FBI Director James Comey retire? According to the man himself, you're going to have to wait:
The FBI director has no plans to leave the post before the end of his 10-year term. "You're stuck with me for about 6 1/2 years," James Comey said at a cyber conference in Boston on Wednesday, urging conference organizers to invite him to speak again.
In recent days, NPR and other news outlets have reported Comey pressed the Justice Department without success to issue a public denial of President Trump's tweet that the FBI and President Barack Obama wiretapped his phones at Trump Tower. White House press secretary Sean Spicer said this week that Trump still has confidence in Comey's ability to lead the FBI. Comey, who served as deputy U.S. attorney general under President George W. Bush and who was named FBI director by Obama, has demonstrated a nearly unique ability to draw critics from both ends of the political spectrum.
Comprehensive coverage of the Comey saga.

treating women as equal human being
Nobody wants to treat women as equals and you know it. I saw in Google News this morning that comedy news shows made a big deal last night about how incompetent assigned males are without women to save them from their inborn stupidity as incomplete beings.
If a man is unable to learn a programming language, you tell him that too bad, it's just not for him. If a woman is unable to learn a programming language, you find the nearest assigned male you can to blame. If that assigned male does not have a history of being an obedient sex object for women, that's all the proof that you need that he must have been doing something that was preventing that woman from learning.
That's a basic example. Women do not desire responsibility for their own actions, and you don't want them to have to have that responsibility either. In that way, men keep women hopelessly infantalized. Both of your gender castes seem happy that way.

Wouldn't have expected this rant from you. You should bookmark news stories that illustrate these points, with all the hubub about misandry nowadays it would be good to have decent examples. Otherwise they are just edge cases the same as sexual harassment / prejudice against women. Sure it happens, but is it really a trend? We've reversed a huge amount of misogyny since the 50s, but where are we really at now? Exploitative clickbait news articles aside.

Then she stays and delegates her work to peers who are more than happy to comply because having the scent of good conditioner and perfume around the office works wonders for the productivity of desperate pandering dick-kneaders (not one of whom, by the way, will get laid).
It's like high-school and college, except that it's also the real world.
