The Evening Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)
The news that the FBI was actually warned last September about the Florida school killer who won’t be named here has me seriously thinking that lopping the top brass off the nation’s supposed “premier law enforcement agency” just isn’t going to be enough to salvage the Bureau’s viability going forward. No, considering the Bureau’s long and growing record of consistently failing to stop tragedies from taking place, and it’s growing number of examples of bullying behavior and corruption, it may seriously be time to disband the entire thing and start over.
Think about it: going all the way back to Lee Harvey Oswald – who had been under surveillance by the FBI for more than a year prior to the assassination of John F. Kennedy – and proceeding through the years past James Earl Ray, Sirhan Sirhan, John Hinckly, Jr., and more recently, the San Bernardino shooters, the Orlando nightclub killer, and now this Florida school shooter, the FBI’s record of abject failure to act in the face of compelling reason to do so is a sad and sordid tale of incompetence.
Toss in the current ongoing revelations about pervasive corruption at the higher levels of the Bureau under James Comey, and its apparent efforts to literally frame General Mike Flynn and possibly even a sitting president of the United States (see Andy McCarthy’s piece at NRO today), and you have a potentially unrecoverable situation. Christopher Wray was given the assignment by President Trump to work to rebuild the Bureau’s tattered reputation while rooting out the myriad bad actors, but that job may well simply be too big for anyone to accomplish.
Our fake national news media is doing everything it can to prevent the public from learning about all the FBI’s wrongdoing, but recent polls from liberal organizations indicate at least half of Americans have been catching on anyway. And once DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz issues the final report from his investigation, even the corrupt slugs who host the CNN and MSNBC evening programs will be left with little choice but to discuss the biggest political corruption scandal in U.S. history.
Once that happens, it’s difficult to imagine how a supposed “law enforcement agency” recovers from the reality that it not only has not enforced the law, it has actively subverted, violated and simply failed to enforce so many of them.
Back in 1963, when there was no Internet and no alternative news media to speak of, the three major networks, in coordination with the New York Times, the Washington Post, Time and Newsweek magazines could easily prevent 90% of the public from knowing about the FBI’s utter and complete failure to stop an assassination despite its long acquaintance with the alleged killer. Today, as the polls are already starting to show, the mainstream fake media no longer has the ability to do that. There are simply too many ways to learn the truth.
Ultimately, a critical mass of the public at large is going to learn about the FBI’s incompetence and corruption. At that point, when the Bureau’s public trust has been completely lost, what choice will there be but to find some way to just start over?
That is all.

Today’s news moves at a faster pace than ever. Whatfinger.com is my go-to source for keeping up with all the latest events in real time.
The New FBI ?
The FBI was too busy covering up for Hillary, framing DJT, and chasing Rooskies that don’t exist.
No Constitutional authority for the FBI to begin with.
Burn it down, pi$$ on the ashes, and move on.
There, I fixed it.
(One of the problems of start over
/reconstitute is that it allows the Deep State to enter in again and corrupt it.)
Yup. And a whole bunch of other alphabet groups.
Where’s Waco?
Why doesn't this come up more often? It seems like a perfect way to trim government down.
“...No Constitutional authority for the FBI to begin with.

Amen, Bro.
They have completely lost all trust, credibility and respect of the People.
Liberalism destroys everything it touches....EVERYTHING, even the so-called “highly esteemed” FBI. They’re now regarded to be even lower class than the damned IRS...who would have ever thought? Disband both of em.
Whether it’s Wounded Knee, the Hillary FBI files, Elian Gonzalez, Randy Weaver, Waco, Enron, Vince Foster or any of the other FBI fu@k ups, the totality of their “kerfufles,” one does not have confidence in the Bureau’s competency or non political bias.
Ya’all know where to find me, assholes.

Been saying this for a year or more.
The recent revelations have justified this.
Its not just the very top of the leadership, but the entire senior level who were implicated.
And those people had long service in the FBI, promoted the next rank below, and that rank the one below that, etc. This is how corruption is established. If it has gone on long enough - and in this case, well into the Bush administration - then you have to assume it goes all the way to the bottom.
Or just abolish it, and rent out the building.
I was in highschool when the FBI and the ATF intentionally burned children alive on TV then blatantly committed hundreds of felonies covering it up. Waco.
However, their corruption turned me from the path towards being a Rolling Stone liberal to radical conservative so I guess I owe them that.
The FBI guy claimed that they are just to over-whelmed to check stuff like this out.
Nevermind disbanding.
Wray, Rosenstein and Sessions won't even fire anybody.
This is a good idea.
For years under J. Edgar Hoover, the FBI refused to take seriously the Mafia, which Hoover denied was real.
The Bureau was cited by the Church Committee in 1975 as using “illegal” and “unconstitutional” methods. The Bureau bugged Martin Luther King for sexual exploits.
Both Truman and Nixon feared Hoover, each saying they could do nothing about him because he had too much dirt.
In 1993, the FBI had an informant inside the mosque with the Blind Sheik in 1993, then let him go when he wanted just a little more money—in part because his main handler was a female agent (See “10,000 Years for Revenge”). The FBI thus lost its best informant who had DIRECT info about the 9/11 attacks due to the information flowing from that mosque.
In the TWA 800 case, the FBI took over the investigation from the FAA and under James Kallstrom ignored or buried the eyewitness reports of 150 people. (See Jack Cashill’s new book on TWA 800). Kallstrom got the CIA to concoct a ridiculous video that did not even comport with physics.
In the lead up to 9/11, the FBI ignored field reports from another female agent in AZ about Saudis taking flying lessons but never learning to take off or land.
We know the more recent stuff. In short, the FBI’s track record is probably only exceeded in its incompetence by that of the CIA.
Makes a bunch of good points. But L.H. Oswald reportedly did NOT kill JFK.
G.H.W. Bush did.
Listening to a former FBI assistant director on with Tucker Carloson tonight explain how the FBI has its own 2 inch thick book that provides them with guidance on how to conduct their ‘business’ so as to protect the innocent and save going off on wild goose chases without cause, maybe this isn’t such a bad idea.
I’m curious , did they ever get their internal computer systems and such upgraded finally or are they still working on that project?
I think one immediate reform would be to remove the counter-intelligence function from the FBI. The Obama DoJ has proved how you can cloak political prosecutions by calling them “intelligence operations”, thus removing their abuse of the FBI/DoJ from the usual scrutiny.
