A Weaponized FBI: It's Real, Whistleblowers Testify, Boasting Scars to Prove It
Longview News-Journal ^ | Feb 16, 2025 | Ben Weingarten

But former colleagues of the terminated “G-men” say this narrative is backward. FBI officials, past and present, have marshaled significant evidence via whistleblower complaints and testimony indicating that several terminated leaders routinely used their offices for partisan purposes.

We knew that, even if we didn’t have the facts.

This is accurate. LBJ had Hoover as his personal snoop to dig up dirt on his enemies. It's all on audio tape.

Recall Obama wanted his shiny new Nazi style Brownshirt Army and had to settle for the weaponized FBI instead. I expected the 87,000 new IRS agents w/Guns was his authoritarian fantasy being fulfilled.

He also weaponized the managed mockingbird MSM and clinked wine glasses with the tech giants for total censorship and narrative control. Maxine Waters was so proud.

Yes but it was supposed to be like Fight Club. You don’t talk about it. These guys were probably quiet because they knew no one would report it.

You do understand that this is the last item on the 45 goals of Communism’s list.

You mean an organization started by a cross-dressing faggot who developed voluminous files on anybody and everybody in or near government might not have been the best thing for the country?

Imagine that!

The FBI since the days of J Edgar has been a corrupt political organization that blackmailed Congressman, Senators, Presidents and judges.

The release of the JFK, RFK and MLK assassination files will show that the FBI has been evil from the beginning.

“I expected the 87,000 new IRS agents w/Guns was his authoritarian fantasy being fulfilled.”

But I find it absolutely hilarious that Trump would order those armed agents to go to the border to do exactly the opposite of what Obama, Biden, and the DNC were trying to accomplish.

Trump should hold off on the auditing for now and focus 100% on heading off the coming "terrorist attacks" from the deepstate M.I.C./FBI faction for the next Coup

I wouldn't put it past them to blow up Trump in the White House with a nuke and blame it on Hamas and everyone would believe it because CNN said so

I know about the Vegas Massacre, I know how vicious they are

IMHO, ALL in government, whether elected or appointed or working as an employee in a Department or agency (or anywhere within the extended bureaucracy) should be absolutely required to pledge, every morning, an oath to the people of America that they will do everything for the good of the American people and will not endeavor to enrich themselves or exert political influence in any manner inconsistent with the Constitution and the good of America.

This oath should also contain a pledge to never ever bear false witness against political opponents - whether in government or in the private sector, including false statements made to media. It should also contain verbiage that they will never try to obtain intelligence on any American citizen for any political purpose.

This should be legally binding, just as if it were uttered in court under oath. Those who break this oath should be prosecuted with zeal. Using this oath to go after political opponents - falsely accusing them of breaking this oath, should automatically require 20 years in prison.

Strong measures are required when government has been inundated with self-serving liars, thieves, and other criminals.

Retaliation against whistleblowers by hyperpartisan dynamic duo...

One of the vindictive ones being a female in charge of assassination investigation.

snip
In a related letter to Horowitz and the Justice Department’s Office of Professional Responsibility, the FBI official of nearly 20 years disclosed, through Empower, that during his time as a Security Division investigator under the leadership of Veltri and Perkins, it was common for investigators to ask “whether employees under investigation had vocalized support for former President Donald Trump or whether they had vocalized objection to the COVID-19 vaccine.”

Veltri and Perkins allegedly would “ask in staff meetings whether employees whose clearances were under investigation had received the vaccine.”

The supervisory special agent asserted that the duo’s perspective “was that if an FBI employee fit a certain profile as a political conservative, they were viewed as security concerns and unworthy to work at the FBI.”

I hope its true. They were intended solely for the harassment and taking down the middle class of the USA.

The same way that Communist always do when they take over is destroy the middle class, the ones most likely to meaningfully oppose them and have resources to do so.

Then they go after the food supply and destroy that so everyone is reliant upon them only for survival. Opposition is neutralized.
