Fired FBI executive Andrew McCabe says America's conservatives are as bad as Islamic terrorists and the federal government needs vastly increased powers to spy on them.

The stunning words from McCabe came during his recent speech at the University of Chicago, and were captured by a report in The Federalist about his comments on conservatives.

"I can tell you from my perspective of spending a lot of time focused on the radicalization of international terrorists and Islamic extremist and extremists of all stripes … is that this group shares many of the same characteristics of those groups that we've seen radicalized along entirely different ideological lines," he said.

The report explained, "McCabe was fired as the deputy FBI director for leaking sensitive information about an investigation into the Clinton Foundation and then lying about it under oath. He also took part in spying on the Donald Trump campaign through a secret warrant granted by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act court."

Stunning words? Not from this steaming pile of commie crap.

It's almost like we can't trust the fbi and DOH-j any longer. /S

There’s no middle ground left.

Its either dismantle the FBI, or accept America’s permanent Stasi.

There is no need to spy on us. We have been shouting from the rooftops what we think, know and want. Trump rallies draw thousands and thousands of people carrying signs, wearing graphic T-shirts and eager to speak their minds to anyone.

No one need spy on us, what’s needed is people listening to us.

Culturally the divide seems to be rabidly Pro-Sodomy and anything else.

Kinda like Romans 1:18-32 was going on, huh?

The FBI is more of a danger to the citizens than what they pretend to protect us from.

Andrew McCabe shut down agent Robyn Gritz’s investigation into the disappearance of US citizen Robert Levinson in Iran. He harassed her, and then went after General Flynn who had supported her in the harassment case.

If that were anywhere near right, this pile would have been shot long ago.

If and when that ever happens, please frame Hillary — it will disappear .

Ah. University of Chicago. That is the university that employs Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers, Obama’s buddy.

That anyone with this attitude would rise all the way to Acting Director of the FIB says the entire organization is rotten to its core.

Defund and Disbanding the Federal Police!!!
