I am so thankful that Merrick Garland did not make it to the Supreme Court.
Well, it was created to enforce one of the grandest failures in American history, the 18th Amendment, also known as the Volstead Act.
FBI, R.I.P.?
I CERTAINLY HOPE SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
An early order of business for the new Congress could be to zero out the FBI’s budget.
I say, FBI, Good Riddance! It’s been a criminal/political organization from the get-go. From what I’ve read, Woodrow Wilson was the first to use the agency to arrest and intimidate Americans who publically voiced their opposition to America’s entry into WWI. And that was just the beginning of the agency’s “storied history”.
The dirty Agents make the other 5% look bad.
RIP?
I think you mean RIH.
Souldn’t be too hard for a new Congress to shut down a Bureau.
“A massive phalanx of FBI agents swooped into the Trump residence while he was not home, to confiscate his personal property, safe, and records.”
It should be emphasized that did this while carrying “weapons of war”! To paraphrase Andrew Cuomo “You don’t need 30 rounds to search an ex President’s home!”.
“”The FBI should be dispersing its investigatory responsibilities to other government investigative agencies that have not yet lost the public trust.””
Prof.VDH, I have a hard time identifying such federal agencies at this point in America’s existence.
I’m sick of hearing how most FBI agents are decent people. No they’re not.
Although now scrubbed from the internet, I can at least quickly attest to 700 CIA being arrested in February by the fact that Politifact says it is NOT true - therefore it is.
Deep state relic Kevin McCarthy will not kill the FBI. You are dreaming if you think this is possible.
First it would take abandoning the continuing resolution and returning to the regular order of budgets, and a budget for the Justice Department with a big ZERO line.
Then it would require saying “take it or leave it” to doddering Joe.
And THEN withstanding the howls and rapprochement of the media and twitterverse.
Not. A. Chance. Squish boy Kevin is not the one.
We know the FBI had evolved into the enforcement arm for THE PARTY, a Democrat Stasi in the same manner the IRS has become a their KGB.
Sometimes in history, there are moments that are described as “tipping points” or maybe “The straw that broke the camel’s back”.
I cannot help but wonder if this latest bit of Kabuki by the Stasi will be one of those moments.
We do not know who the agents were?
Do other agents..who did not take part..do they know who they are.
I guess what I’m asking ..is there some good guys on the inside figuring out who the bad agents are?
Wow. I am a devotee of his work, I admire Victor Davis Hanson, and to hear a man who is normally quite level and congenial speaking in this way really made me take notice.
And he is 100% correct. The FBI needs to be overhauled if not dismantled. It is no different than the East German Stasi right now.
Shameful.
I have been saying for a while that the FBIAS has become more of a danger to the citizens than what they pretend to protect us from.
Considering the fact that virtually NONE of our government agencies are now trustworthy, the DemocRATs will have to actively remove our one means of retaliation (feggedabowdt voting). Expect gun raids.
Thus far, the only reputable, honest FBI agents to be seen
are those who once worked for this agency in the long ago
tee vee series, “I LED THREE LIVES”.
A DONKEY POX on this motley crew of rogues and heathens.
