Really? I've seen no evidence that these dedicated field agents are doing anything other than following the lead of their bosses. The FBI is corrupt from top to bottom. It's in the category of the NKVD, Stasi, and Gestapo, except that they are more circumspect about executing people.
I’m going to have to call out BS on that. Name even one.
I’m going to have to call BS on that. Look at so many of their cases, more or less, entrapment. Look at what they did at Ruby Ridge. Look at what they did in Waco. Look at the FBI Crime Lab Scandal. Lets take a recent look at the case of Lavoy Finicum and the coverup by the FBI HRT. Lets take a look at what happened in Garland, Texas and how the agent told the perps to “burn it to the ground”, I believe, and then fled the scene when the shooting started.
They have a long and sordid history, dating back to the beginning with Hoover. You see, they are the ones that have oversight over every other agency. They don’t have anyone watching them. It supposed to be the DOJ, but as we’ve learned they’re in collusion to get what they want.
DHS was never supposed to be an armed, investigative branch of the government. It was supposed to be a clearing house, where representatives from all the federal law enforcement and intel agencies could de-conflict, share information and work together. But, as with anything the feds do, it grew into a behemoth without a clear mandate other than, Homeland Security. Well, now that they are here to stay, might as well make them do more than assist local law enforcement or walk around airports.
There is not one single thing that the FBI does that isn’t already being done by another federal agency. And, those agencies tend to do it better as they have very clear mandates, whereas the FBI has many.
Let the ones that can retire, retire. Let the rest, after the entire agency is defunded, apply for jobs with the other agencies with no preference given. If they don’t want to do that and just want to finish out a few more years to collect their retirement, let them learn Spanish, give them a green uniform and put them on the border.
LOL
It’s the field agents that will put everyone on the list here.
Are you kidding me?
They took an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution yet they sit around and ignore the crimes that have been committed within their ranks. And, by this lack of response, these agent become fully complicit co-conspirators.
Get real!
‘the majority of field agents who are dedicated and who, for the most part, despise what has happened over the past few years.’
And what proof do you have that the majority of field agents are so pure at heart?

I USED to buy that crap too.
A few years ago there were two high school kids pulled over by the FBI, the Male driver was shot in the face by an FBI agent. No real reason.
The Fib did no wrong!
The checked it out themselves!
Nothing to see.
I did search around for the story, east coast bank robber(?) about five years back.
For all of the BS under Obama and the BS happening to POTUS Trump,I find it perplexing that we never see whistle blowers. Does Deep State Swamp get to these people? It’s scary when one thinks about it.
Re your assertion that the FBI rank and file is dedicated and despise what happened, what evidence does an ordinary American like me have that it is true? Do I see hundreds of FBI agents and other personnel standing on the Capitol steps to make their disgust public? Do I see whistleblowers galore coming forward? Why the silence?
I hope you’re referring to the top echelon who were involved in Spygate, not the majority of field agents who are dedicated and who, for the most part, despise what has happened over the past few years.
Can't speak for the original poster, but I sure as hell have no confidence in these allegedly 'dedicated' field agents. None at all. They could shut the entire place down and I wouldn't give a damn.
Before I read any more on this thread I'm gonna say that I doubt you'll find many on this forum that agree with that statement. IMO, your opinion of the FBI rank-and-file is farcical.
“I hope you’re referring to the top echelon who were involved in Spygate, not the majority of field agents who are dedicated and who, for the most part, despise what has happened over the past few years.”
Yeah. No... those pure-as-the-driven-snow field agents don’t exist. They’re a figment of Sean Hannity’s imagination.
I would shut down the doors. The reliable politic free officers either picked up by a new agency or spread out into other agencies.
The rest? show the door.
“for the most part, despise what has happened over the past few years.”
I used to believe that. No more. Not one single “rank and file” whistleblower has come forward.
Not one.
L
Truth.
Those line agents also despised Comey. They’re the ones who anointed him “Cardinal”. It’s not a compliment.
