Look at the the folks who have been FBI directors for the past several decades, those are the folks that hired the rank and file.

It's their fault I feel like this, not mine.

We are constantly fed the line that the "rank & file" FBI agents are standup folks that are doing an honest and great job for the good of the country and only the upper levels are corrupt.
WHAT A CROCK OF SHIT!
That wasn't Wray or Mueller out there wearing plate carriers and cammie jammies carrying M4s...that was the standup, honest "rank & file" agents doing a pre-dawn raid on a political operative.

Well, that's a little silly, isn't it...expecting a "rank and file" agent to toss away his career over this? Come on.

No, I expect them to do exactly what they have done for the last 50++ years.
Not a damn thing that doesn't cover their own ass, their bosses or boost them up the ladder.

We were told that sooo many good FBI agents were going to go to congress and spill the beans when Harpy was exonerated by Comey. That turned out to be a REALLY short list of whistleblowers.

Maybe this country is not what we were taught to believe. Think of the term public service. So you don't have faith in the FBI or the DOJ. I am sure they don't stay awake worrying about it.

Just a PSA: a reminder that we are only 2 years removed from this:

The FBI is the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Take away their guns and let them just investigate. Any police-type activity should be relegated to the US Marshals. The same with the IRS and the BATFE.

they should remember that its a two way street

they have demonstrated conclusively over the past few decades that they have nothing but contempt for us

I think its only fair that we have nothing but contempt and disdain for them

I'm not losing any sleep over any Feeb that gets into a hard spot...they made their bed, they can sleep in it

It kind of makes me wonder if the FBI has been politicized for a long long time.
Maybe it's just so obvious and over the top currently.

The higher echelon's have ruined the FBI.
I would like to be wrong, but don't think I am.

I certainly remember WACO and Ruby Ridge...

I should have thought of those. My brain's a bit slow these days.
Another Democrat admin.

Is that the common factor in this equation?

"Another Democrat admin."

As do I. And, while Randy Weaver was a nutjob (I've met the man on more than one occasion), and the "prophet" Koresh and his band of offshoots from Seventh Day Adventism were nutjobs, that gave the feds no right to do what they did in either case.

It was ALL political.

We aren't alone in our thinking about the FBI

"The show that Mueller and the FBI put on for the cameras of their political ally, CNN, was a disgrace

A few years ago, I couldn’t have imagined saying this, but the FBI has proved to be corrupt and hopelessly politicized. It needs, at a minimum, a thorough housecleaning. It might even be necessary to put the FBI out of business and start over with a new federal investigative agency."

Bring in the U.S. Marshals.

The Country needs law and order, not political bands of merry men.

Abolish the FBI (Army of the political left).

The first thing you're going to have to do is fully staff and expand the USMS for the jobs you guys want to give them. There is not many of them considering all of the jobs the Marshal's Service does. During the shut down, we had TWO deputy Marshal's for the district, and they were baliffing in the shutdown/streamlined/non-essitential federal court.

Well, either that, or authorize them more task force officers from state and local agencies.

^^^^^^^
I am good with that.
Take the money currently going to the FBI and give it to the U.S. Marshals.

Let the U.S. Marshals sort through the Ex-FBI job applications and hire the few good guys.

The FBI orgaized crime family needs to fade off into the dustbin of history for the good of the Country.

I don't think that the USMS should allow themselves to become contaminated with former Feebs.

There are lots of people willing to do the job starting out from scratch and don't bring the political stench with them

personally, I think they're all damaged goods

Has the FBI ever been a noncorrupt political arm?

It was run by the tranny Hoover for how many years? 50? It was entirely political during that time. Did it change since?
