Sunday on FNC’s “Fox & Friends Weekend,” Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) reacted to whistleblowers within the FBI claiming that top brass were working to discredit allegations made against Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, as the elder Biden was running for commander-in-chief.
Johnson said he was not “shocked” but did find the effort to help the Bidens “outrageous.” He suggested it was proof the FBI and Department of Justice could not be trusted.
“[F]irst of all, thank God for those whistleblowers. We need a whole lot more of them in the FBI, the Department of Justice, and our federal health agencies,” Johnson outlined. “They need to come forward and start talking to us.”
“Listen, I’m not shocked, but it’s outrageous that the FBI would be tipping the scales of justice the way they’re doing,” he added. “I have no faith in Christopher Wray of conducting this investigation, but it’s important for the American public to understand the FBI had Hunter Biden’s laptop in December of 2019. They certainly saw the evidence of what I think is criminal activity on that laptop. They’ve done nothing. Here we are in the end of July, early August of 2022 — what have they done with it? So, no, you can’t trust this Justice Department and FBI to get to the bottom of this.”

The FBI corrupted the democratic process. There is a word for that.
It's TIME to DownSize DC!
Restore the Constitution!Size DC!
Congress has the power of the purse. If they really believe that any of our government agencies are corrupt, they should defund them.
Dissolve the FBI, except for its lab. The nerds and techies over there have value. The rest are AT BEST just bureaucrats. Hire new ones.
Christopher Wray is an anti-American.
In my estimation, if they covered for the guy performing the crimes, they are just as bad as the perpetrator.
J Edgar Hoover is rolling in his grave. The greatest law enforcement agency ever created is nothing but a gaggle of dirty cops bent on enforcing Democratic political aims. Trump 47 better make it his first business to fire almost every supervisor level and above FBI member.
Most citizens have lost respect for the FBI and Justice Department, but the fear of them is increasing. That is the route that every totalitarian government takes until it collapses on itself. Perhaps that is enough for the soldiers of the Justice and FBI - when there is not enough respect, then they will replace it with fear.
Ummm... Not so much. Hoover was as bad as any of them.
J Edgar Hoover was very powerful and weird.
BUT, he was NOT a COMMIE!
He knew what to do with them. He was not Penochet, but was effective. They kept their heads down.
Spot on.
Correct. And they did. No if about it.
Johnson is in a tight re-election battle. Law enforcement in general is not very popular. Is it for show or will it really get done?
This isn't just about trust. It's about thorough corruption. And it starts at Garland and Wray, and goes all the way down through Hannity's "good ones"...
Yep
Hoover WAS NOT a COMMIE!
Wray
And what has Congress done about these broken laws?
