Trump and the F.B.I.

[jc456]

Oh thank you so much.

It's always my pleasure.

Those are police vehicles, not officers.

Idiot.

So if you vandalize a police car you aren't attacking police?

You're a special kind of stupid.

The argument that it's supposedly controlled by "conservatives" & Repubs rings very hollow to the people who have opened their eyes to see how corrupt the agencies have become & what we used to think of us allies are actually swamp RINOs playing a part in the UNiparty Kabuki Theatre.

That might have worked 6 years ago but no chance now.
We are fully aware of the rigged system now & these "allies" get no more second chances

In 2016 Trump claimed that 3 to 5 million illegals voted.

I love watching Trump attack the F.B.I., historically a bastion of conservatism, from J. Edgar Hoover to today. However, no one who dare crosses Trump is immune, even the F.B.I.. We've seen Trump supporters violently attack the police on January 6th, 2021, and now they are going after the F.B.I..

Maybe it's time to remind Trump supporters about the F.B.I., and who runs it. I'm quite happy to let the former President continue to lash out at traditional allies as he tries to make the former Republican Party his own personal fiefdom.




Of all the weird and historically discordant moments and news stories of the Donald Trump era, few seem stranger than watching the former president and his allies demonize the F.B.I. as some sort of rogue “woke” Democratic deep state mob. This has been happening for several years now, but in the days since the F.B.I. searched Mr. Trump’s home at Mar-a-Lago, the bureau has attracted particularly withering criticism for its supposedly leftist persecution of Mr. Trump, and Republicans have even begun to call to “defund the corrupt F.B.I.”

Historically, though, the F.B.I. has been arguably the most culturally conservative and traditionally white Christian institution in the entire U.S. government. It’s an institution so culturally conservative, even by the standards of law enforcement, that Democratic presidents have never felt comfortable — or politically emboldened — enough to nominate a Democrat to head the bureau.

That’s right: Far from being a bastion of progressive thinking, every single director of the F.B.I. has been a Republican-aligned official, going all the way back to its creation. Such history suggests that the issue here is Mr. Trump and not institutional bias.

Its current director, Christopher Wray, who oversaw the agents conducting last week’s search of Mar-a-Lago, was nominated by Mr. Trump himself and came to the job with sterling Republican credentials: He was the head of the criminal division in George W. Bush’s Justice Department, a member of the conservative Federalist Society and a clerk for Judge J. Michael Luttig, a Republican judicial icon.

Mr. Wray replaced the F.B.I. director Mr. Trump fired, James Comey, who had been nominated by Barack Obama and was the former deputy attorney general of George W. Bush’s Justice Department. His predecessor Robert Mueller, who served in the Justice Department for both Bush presidencies, was nominated by George W. Bush.

And before them — from Louis Freeh (a George H.W. Bush judge) to the F.B.I.’s founder, J. Edgar Hoover — all of the F.B.I.’s directors were Republican-aligned officials.

As its history shows, the F.B.I. is hardly a “woke” deep state mob.

I'm sure you loved watching the FBI kill all those kids in Waco, too.

The same thing happened with Bush's wars. They were in here defending them all day long, but the moment the orange deity spoke out against them, suddenly they're anti-war doves.

These are people who have been conditioned to pick a leader and then mindlessly follow that leader no matter what. Weak, manipulable, and the political equivalent of Pavlov's Dogs.

Mac, tell us about the time you believe Trump carjacked the Secret Service.

The FBI has always been corrupt. Hoover famously said as an example, "There is no Mafia in America."

The reason? Hoover was a cross dressing fag and the mob had incriminating pictures.

The FBI illegally spied on MLK, on many in the antiwar movement, and illegally spied on Trump and his supporters. I could go on, there are literally hundreds of examples, but you get my point.

Different time, different era. Black people couldn't sit at the same lunch counter either, to say nothing of other racist policies.

You folks love and worship the police when Trump tells you to, and hate and disparage them when he tells you to.

You are all nothing more than marionettes.

Nothing's changed with the FBI. I'm sure you cheered when they massacred the women and children in Waco.

January 6th, 2021, a truly dark day in American history.

Thanks for the reminder. God bless our police in keeping us safe from violent extremists.

It was. The feds murdered an unarmed woman in front of hundreds of witnesses, and you cheered. That's as dark as it gets.

I don't defend Joe Biden.

It's interesting, though, that you believe killing kids is a justifiable reaction to that. Not surprising for a pro-abort shitbag like you.

Nope. After a BLM riot.
