There are suppose to be checks and balances. It appears that the FBI doesn’t want to be accountable to anyone, the President, Congressional oversight, or even the FISA courts.

It is time to set the FBI director down and tell him to either be accountable to Congressional oversight or the swamp will be drained and the FBI budget will be cut by 30%. Then let him go home and explain that to his peers in the Deep State.

Hitlery illegally had 900 FBI files in the 1990s and nothing ever happened to her, why start now?

These people know that the House committee will pontificate about it, but ultimately will do nothing. They have nothing to fear.

Rab wants Devin back on line.

America is wondering if the “ethics comity , is ethically operational.

https://ethics.house.gov/about/committee-members
Susan W. Brooks, Indiana - Chairwoman
Patrick Meehan, Pennsylvania T
Trey Gowdy, South Carolina
Kenny Marchant, Texas
Leonard Lance, New Jersey

These are presumed less ethically challenged than the others.

Maybe about 500 of them need to be shipped off to Shemya. That might get their attention.

The only things worth keeping from the FBI are the forensics and profiling programs.

Otherwise, throw the half baked Stasi wannabees out on the private market.

YES! And the richest of the rich are in that mix. I have heard that only about 50 persons have more wealth than 3/4 of the rest of the world. Very, very dangerous situation.

The FBI was founded under a corrupt, blackmailing, closeted homosexual. It went downhill from there.

It’s not just the N.S.A., F.B.I., I.R.S., This “magic negro” has turned the entire federal gub mint in to a tool of the democrat party.
The entire federal gub mint is horse shit.

Off with their heads! But first grab their wealth. Actually, those 50 should be made to give up 90% of their wealth.

Congress created the Department of Justice, Congress has oversight authority over its creations.

The FBI does not get to choose which Congressional committee has oversight, ALL of Congress has oversight. The FBI has rejected Congress’ authority.

Issue a subpoena, if it is not complied with then find them in contempt and imprison them.
