Journalists do not take an oath. They get paid to promote propaganda. Many of our officials take oaths. They must follow orders. The oath vanishes. They become corrupt.
The orders must be followed or they are removed. Once a person becomes corrupt, it is easier to control. True Patriots are gone with the wind.

Ron Paul, who many still dismiss or criticize as a fringe figure, has made so many ultimately accurate predictions about America’s future

Give Bernie Sanders his due too. I believe he has voted against the Patriot Act every single time.

And yet recently, he has voted for every Ukraine-war funding act put in front of him.

I love pointing this out to my hippie/leftist relatives.

The criminal law enforcement component of the FBI is sensible and loyal to the constitution... The lawyers they hire are the worst of the worst from liberal minded universities, who couldn’t get a job in a decent law firm. They are mostly Democrat, mostly liberal and beholding to the Democrat civil servants who hired them.

The problem with doing away with the FBI is the same interstate law enforcement issues that caused its creation will reassert themselves in a big way.

Three prominent reforms that are needed is:

1. No more FBI interview process crimes. If the FBI interviews you, it must be recorded. All records of the recorded audio\video & written interview are given to the interviewee and his\her legal representative. If that isn’t done, then it’s like the interview didn’t happen. The SA & immediate supervisors are then disciplined for not following the rules.

2. Separate CI & CT responsibility from the FBI. Most of the recent problems have been cause by the FBI’s Washington based CI unit. It’s too close to the leadership and too close to the politics of DC. Create an organization that functions like the UKs MI5, it only has investigative responsibility. To make an arrest it has to report to a federal DA and has to meet the federal standards for an arrest to be made.

3. Prosecute the people who corrupted the FISA process.

I’m sorry to hear that Ron Paul has committed suicide.

Fire EVERYONE employed by the FBI and then raze every building, facility or office they ever occupied. IMO, the entire organization is a completely corrupt leftist DEMOCRAT machine.

"As Professor Turley points out, although the First Amendment only applies to the US government, “it does apply to agents or surrogates of the government."

Since the House of Representatives uniquely has constitutional "power of the purse," the reference below shows that Twitter was arguably a "deputized" federal actor under FBI.

FBI Paid Twitter $3.4 Million in US Tax Dollars for Administration Costs Related to the Staff’s Time Spent Working with the FBI (12.19.22)

And I hope that Sen. Paul at least voted against any spending bills that funded FBI.

The CIA, State Dept, DoJ, Treasury, and DoD need to be completely — as in, fully, newly — replaced (on a massively smaller scale) as well.

Send the FBI stuff back to the States.

I’ve seen no evidence of this.

The whole “defund the police movement was actually about federalizing all local police. Communists need that to carry out their diabolical plans.

“...We must abolish the FBI.”

No. Abolishing the FBI is like banning guns. We need another law enforcement agency between the president led CIA and the state “uncontrolled” agencies. It’s not the agency that is the problem. It’s the people in it doing ignored things. And like a gun, if it isn’t utilized right, it can’t do it’s job. So nail the people in it and those supporting the illegalities to the cross that need to be. The business is not set up to be dangerous to people like anti-gun advocates say about weapons. They both are a tool. People kill people...not guns. They don’t aim themselves.
