nvestigating garage-door pulls and Lego sets seems to be the height of its investigatory skill.
The Washington Examiner reported last week that the FBI used a tip line while vetting Brett Kavanaugh. That sounds like another dirty trick that the Democrats were probably behind -- but in fact, it’s the Democrats that are upset about it and are demanding answers.
It seems they’re concerned that the FBI may not have thoroughly investigated all tips received and they want to know why. The implication seems to be that President Trump may have impeded investigation of the tips -- and if so, they want to know more. It sounds suspiciously like they’re looking for more grounds for yet another impeachment.
Is this what passes for crack police work from our “premier law enforcement agency”? We’re not talking about a 10-year-old cold case in which all the leads have dried up. Brett Kavanaugh is a well-established legal scholar and judge. How hard could it be to investigate him? It’s just a matter of checking his financials, his criminal record, and interviewing family and associates.
Is the use of a tip line standard procedure when vetting presidential appointments now? Was it used in the background check of Merrick Garland when President Asterisk nominated as attorney general?
This makes one wonder if there’s something nefarious going on here. As we’ve known since his confirmation, the FBI found nothing incriminating in Justice Kavanaugh’s past.

Maybe they can all just go work for NOOSECAR!
Time to go back to prosecuting the FBI as happened in the 1970s for their 60s abuses.
Well yeah. But not under the current stolen administration.
Benedict Biden: THAT’S HIS NAME!
Destroying America: THAT’S HIS GAME!!
I LOVE THIS!!!!!!
I don’t think defunding the FBI is the answer, but do we really need 16 or 17 armed federal law enforcement agencies that do not cooperate with one another? Consolidate a few. Roll DHS, ATF and a few others into the FBI and stop the redundancy.
Even nominally making the FBI more powerful by rolling other agencies into it is a big mistake. It is throughly and irredeemably corrupt. Any reorganization should include eliminating or massively overhauling it
At a minimum, perhaps the top 1000 in leadership should be fired and replaced with non-Democrat partisan activists.
” Let’s talk defunding – for the FBI”
And the DOJ while we’re at it.
Break up the FBI and the CIA. They no longer serve the people of the United States. It’s Government, for the Government, By the Government, and it won’t go away quietly.
The FBI, DOJ, and CIA don’t even try to hide it anymore. They don’t investigate the politically connected, even if they murder (Covid to Nursing homes), child pornography illegal weapons and payoffs(Hunter Biden), political intimidation and murder (Seth Rich) and now Tucker Carlson (NSA spying and CIA threatening). They throw the book for ‘lying to the FBI’ when they never even lied. They prosecute those who aid free governments like the Ukraine as ‘foreign agents’ but don’t prosecute those who do the same for Russia and China. Hell, they don’t prosecute Chinese military here lying about their status. Not to mention election crimes, never investigated. High level leakers, no punishment, and I could go on.
These are not ‘the peoples’ agencies anymore. They use the power of the taxpayer for their own political devices.
What if it isn’t a swamp and it’s really and Ocean?
Let’s talk about disbanding.
That’s the only remedy to completely corrupt organizations.
The FBI budget is around 9 billion with 35,000 or so employees they deign to admit having. Can’t really see anything happening to it at this point. That’s a 9 billion dollar tick dug in deep. It was probably too late 50+ years ago to do anything about any of the alphabet agencies, which basically function as guardians of the bureaucratic establishment empire in DC.
It’s really hard to picture any modern politician getting rid of any alphabet agency or even reducing the budgets in the era of the 24 news cycle and our risk adverse culture in any case. What if something happens after cutting the budgets?

“Let’s talk defunding – for the FBI”
Ha! Anyone with a pulse KNOWS we are well beyond talking!
For many decades, the FBI has been a malicious, out-of-control, and self-serving cult!
