Biden using FBI as personal 'Praetorian Guard,' says constitutional expert
wnd.com ^ | 12/26/2021 | Bob Unruh

The Praetorian Guard was the unit of the imperial Roman army that served as personal bodyguards – and spies – for Roman emperors.

That was back then.

Now, it would be the federal agents who address Joe Biden's concerns.

That is according to constitutional expert Jonathan Turley, who has written about the president's access to the federal system under the headline, "Biden's Praetorian Guard? The Ashley Biden investigation raises new questions over the use of the FBI."

The heart of the controversy is a diary belonging to Ashley Biden, the president's daughter, that she apparently abandoned.

Turley explained, "With smash and grabs raging across the country, prosecutors have struggled to assure the public that they are cracking down on the crime wave and using every possible means to deter the organized thefts. One group notably missing in this effort has been the federal prosecutors.

"While Attorney General Merrick Garland was criticized for launching a federal task force on threats against school boards (based on a handful of local cases), he has been largely silent on any federal effort to deal with this actual crime wave. That is despite the fact that these attacks are organized on social media and experts think it’s likely the stolen items are being sold on the internet. That is all interstate conduct and would allow for federal enforcement.

Probably one of those off hand comments such as "Sure would be nice if someone could get my daughters diary back." Not a 'direction' per se. Seen it before and by this time brandon knows how to play that game. To win favor with those in charge while those in charge can "honestly" say: "I never ordered them to do that." Is Ashley finally off drugs? IIRC some individuals that suffered childhood sexual abuse turn to drugs. Corrections if needed.

It’s probably time to start looking “beyond Brandon”.

He’s not really using them when they willingly work towards the leftist machine. The FBI are more akin to the Nazi SS, with the Secret Service acting as the Liebstandard.

This is a Nazi regime and deserves Nazi comparisons.

The entire Federal government is rotten to the core. Time to reboot.

Heh. The ‘Constitutional expert’ can’t identify the object on his face between his eyes.

It ain’t Biden.

I agree that both the FBI and the S.S. are in need of major reform - but let's please not get carried away here!

The FBI used to look out for their own interests (Hoover era) and I think that is preferable to what we have today where the FBI had basically morphed into the law enforcement agency for the Democratic Party. Now it is clear because ANTIFA/BLM are off the hook for their attacks throughout the nation. But people who showed up on 1/6? Off to the gulag, you go.

It’s more like King Henry II’s ‘who’ll rid me of this meddlesome priest’.

Been done this way for a long time.

While visiting an arena, Caligula was in a confined corridor and assassinated by his Praetorian guard. They then ransacked the palace and found the cowering Uncle Claudius.

Claudius was considered to be a joke and the Praetorians proclaimed him the new Emperor.

Claudius was one of the best to ever serve as emperor

The Roman Praetorian Guard did guard Caesar, but if Caesar should stray too much to the liking of the Guard, it was The Guard that sent Caesar’s body down The Tiber River!!

jus’ sayin’

I had changed the initials from “FBI” to “CPSD.” “Clinton Private Security Detail.” Now, it’s “BPSD?”

There is no reboot. There is simply collapse. The globalists will have won.
