FBI whistleblowers have disclosed to Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee that FBI officials have been “pressuring” agents to “artificially pad” domestic violence extremist (DVE) data, and have even dispensed “awards and promotions” to those who met the Bureau’s DVE investigation quotas.
In a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray, Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan, the ranking Republican on the committee, said: “From recent protected disclosures, we have learned that FBI officials are pressuring agents to reclassify cases as ‘domestic violent extremism’ even if the cases do not meet the criteria for such a classification.” He continued: “Given the narrative pushed by the Biden administration that domestic violent extremism is the ‘greatest threat’ facing our country, revelation that the FBI may be artificially padding domestic terrorism data is scandalous.”
The whistleblowers also allege, according to Jordan, that the Biden FBI has been conducting a “purge” of FBI employees who hold conservative views.

The FBI defines a domestic violent extremist (DVE) as “an individual based and operating primarily within the United States or its territories without direction or inspiration from a foreign terrorist group or other foreign power who seeks to further political or social goals wholly or in part through unlawful acts of force or violence.”
The Bureau under Biden has made investigating domestic terrorism a top priority, doubling the number of DVE investigations by June of 2021. Since Biden took office, his administration has taken aggressive steps to punish his political enemies, whether they be Trump supporters who protested at the Capitol on January 6, or parents protesting mask mandates, critical race theory, or LGBTQ curricula at school boards.

Sri Lanka time.
This padding of numbers is nothing new. Years ago, when state, fed and local agencies joined to fight drugs (OCDETF), any time a seizure was made, say 30 kilos of heroin, every agency involved claimed in on their stat lists. So 30 kilos became in excess of 120 or more. Another agency, INS, placed more value on “closing” cases than on any actual disposition of suspects, and agents were usually promoted based on how many “closures” they claimed. Very sure both practices are still raging. The FBI sounds like just another scam agency in their stats.
There is a reason for this.
