Newsmax released an article this week that gives voice to further distrust of America’s once-premiere law enforcement agency. The column was based on a series of questions and concerns presented by Representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL) regarding the still murky details around the January 6th storming of the Capitol building. Two questions lobbed at the FBI are both haunting and disheartening:
“What did the FBI know? And when did they know it?”
The fact that the agency responsible for investigating the lawlessness of that date is itself under scrutiny is alarming. Regardless of how one feels about Americans -- patriots or paid agitators -- entering the Capitol building illegally is not germane to the questions surrounding the supposedly objective pursuit of justice by sworn law enforcement officers. Gaetz’s most damning volley came when he suggested the FBI is no longer acting under the auspices of their original mission and has taken the dubious position of engaging in political policing. If remotely true, it would seem to represent the final nail in the coffin for any chance at repairing the integrity of a federal investigative agency.

when federal agents do not compartmentalize their own politics and beliefs while on the job, they obviously leave themselves open to questions about their motives. It speaks to a more significant problem that some in the media are hinting at but not addressing directly. Meanwhile, Leftist progressives continue to write fantasy-fiction-becomes-reality with ideas to split large Blue states into smaller Blue states while adding even more Blue states in places like Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico. The link between the destruction of republicanism (small “r”), the rise of globalism (read: socialism), and the FBI may not seem apparent at first.

Trust in the FBI cannot be regained until there is a reckoning. That can only come through accountability for bad actors. If an Average Joe breaks the law, he can reasonably assume that law enforcement will not stop searching for him until he is caught and arrested. The same standard doesn’t apply to uber-protected federal agents and their rulers. That group gets to use their positions to conduct political witch hunts. Until the only witches that are hunted are of the criminal kind, trust in the system and those sworn to enforce its rules will remain elusive.
Comment:
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has become corrupt from top to bottom.It was corrupted by J. Edgar Hoover and never became the epitome of law that it claims to be....
Those at the top have been politically appointed and compromised. they ahve proven that they cannot compartmentalize their politics from their jobs....
Trust in the FBI? Isn’t going to happen. After 125 years of misadventures, corruption and other crimes, it is time to close it down.
History:
1896: Organised as National Bureau of Criminal Identification
1908: Reorganised as Bureau of Investigation
1932: Reorgaised as United States Bureau of Investigation
1935: Reorganised as Federal Bureau of Investigation
1973: Reorganised after Hoover’s death. Some say repurposed to more political ends
Government agencies do not get reorganised and renamed simply due to ‘the changing times’. They get reorganised and renamed due to corruption, malfeasence, criminality and to cover politician’s asses.Close it down
