I think it has been corrupt since Hoover in the 1920s, but that’s just me.

Yes same CIA that didn’t even know the Berlin wall was coming down until the bricks started hitting them in the head. The same CIA who did not know that Saigon was falling until the NVA tanks were at the gates.

I think at the minimum IG should have prosecutorial powers, and unfettered access to all agency and interagency communications and any attempt to thwart their investigation automatically leads to criminal contempt charges, removal of office, release of all FBI internal files on them and all IRS tax returns.

It has been that time since J. Edgar Hoover was installed.

My list of Constitutionally authorized agencies:
  1. The Treasury
  2. The Army
  3. The Navy (Marines are under here)
  4. The Post Office
  5. The DOT (though scaled back; essentially ensuring interstate repair and [minimal] safety standards)
  6. The Secret service (though scaled back [no protection of politicians; only investigation of counterfeiting])
  7. The IRS (Amd #16 is valid.)
  8. Dept of Commerce (only international and interstate; no intrastate jurisdiction)
  9. INS
  10. Copyright Office
  11. Patent Office
I might be missing one or two, but Art 1 Sec 8 is actually very limiting.

The BATF is far more corrupt at the soldier level. The FBI appears, so far at least, to be corrupt at the top. Purge all top level and carefully select good fair people who won’t bend to the next corrupt Administration’s whim’s and it should be okay. Not the BATF though. It needs to be completely purged.

“No, considering the Bureau’s long and growing record of consistently failing to stop tragedies from taking place,”

Good, old fashioned policing starts only after the crime has been committed. Let’s suppose they got good at stopping crimes before they were committed. To be, say, fifty percent effective, how many people would they need to keep permanently incarcerated?...people who, and this is the point, had not yet committed a crime. Sure there have been some missed opportunities, but how many opportunities were also there at the same time which were also not acted on and which also came to nothing? People call the cops, at every level, all the time with hysterical claims. Which of those claims is legitimate? How much of your precious investigative assets, which, remember, are investigating crimes that have already happened, do you assign to them?

Having been involved in, and in charge of, setting up departments and companies from scratch, I can tell you we are better off improving that which already works rather than starting over.

Gal on Fox responded when a FBI mouth piece claimed there wan't enough evidence/info to determine who the guy was - "Everyone else was able to figure it out, how can the FBI not be able to do it?

It is time to do a blanket erase of the three letter community.
