FBI should completely shut down: Judicial Watch's Chris Farrell [February 16, 2018]
Fox Business ^ | February 16, 2018

Posted on 02/16/2018 7:44:35 PM PST by Sopater

Judicial Watch Director of Investigations Chris Farrell is calling for the complete abolishment of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) beginning with the resignation of its director, Christopher Wray, after failing to protect American citizens.

The law enforcement agency has come under scrutiny for becoming too politicized in the probe into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server and the Russian dossier that may have helped authorities obtain FISA warrants to conduct surveillance on Trump campaign officials.

“I would go back 200 years to the U.S. Marshal Service. I would create a new division for investigation and in about 6-8 months, I would shut the FBI down,” Farrell said during an interview on FOX Business “Lou Dobbs Tonight.”

No, I agree.

“The bad guys are ONLY the very tippy top..!”

That’s ridiculous.

Just TRASH it, the whole thing.

The FBI is little more than Obama’s political police. They’re were hoping they’d become Hillary’s political police, which is why they’re so upset.

The challenge is the see something, say something era has broken down. The police were called to his home 37 times in 7 years (if I have that correct); the school banned him from entering their premise with a backpack; a school employee recognized and reported him that day; and yet he was still able to purchase a rifle. On top of that, the FBI was given the unique spelling of his name in sept or nov 2017, and was warned about him by name in January 2018. You had concerned citizens taught /‘see Something, say something” and they did. Yet with all of these warning signs, the system failed. My heart goes out to the families of the innocents as this tragedy could have been prevented on so many levels. It is disengenuous to solely blame the fbi, or call for a resignation when the entire system failed. Yes I understand the role of LEO is to protect the public at large and not necessarily the individual, but the totality of everything these young people were taught has failed them. To politicize one agenda over another right now is a disservice to us all.

To be fair they are busy investigating Trump using Yahoo News and twitter as their “methods and sources”. Maybe if they weren’t trying to run a coup they could follow actual leads

I’m thinking that if the FBI has been invaded by the swamp, the thing to do is to clean it. It is really very simple and the same thing POTUS has been saying since he was a candidate, just drain the swamp.

Drain the swamp. Enforce the laws already on the books. Confirm POTUS’s appointees and get rid of the holdovers.

You think they can do a massively ambitious project like totally restructure federal law enforcement? Dream on! They can’t even manage something simple like confirming nominees to existing agencies!

Very true. Apparently, these guys staged both a protest and the counter-protest in the same city on the same day, which explains a lot really.

The FBI isn’t just useless, it’s dangerous. To support that contention one need only to remember the absolute failure to prevent the 9/11 attacks on NY. They had the pertinent info prior to the attack and did absolutely no forensic follow up investigation. The same with the Boston marithon bombers, the Southern California Muslim murders at the DMV Christmas party. Time to make a change, abolish this dangerously useless agency.

I agree. They have been too corrupt for too long to salvage.
