Bottom Line
It's fascinating that today's liberals like the alphabet agencies more than Republicans. It used to be the other way around.
Independents align with Republicans regarding the FBI, military, and the media, but are closer to the Democrats regarding the police, criminal justice system, and Supreme Court (watch out for this regarding Justice nominations).
