Once you realize that the FBI went from being the world’s greatest law enforcement agency to just a band of dirty cops, you understand their logic and motives. The next GOP President should disband them completely and start over rebuilding the organization with men and women who want to impartially enforce the law and nothing else.

I’m not sure the FBI ever lived up to that billing. After all J. Edgar Hoover as Director-for-Life was blackmailing a succession of US Presidents so that he had leeway to enforce the laws and investigate the citizens as he, J. Edgar, saw fit. He did some great work during Prohibition against the Mobs, and superb stuff against the German spies landed during WW2. Buts let not kid ourselves... a lot of corners were cut then, too.
Then J. Edgar dies and an apparachik William Grey gets elevated by Richard Nixon. But another FBI lifer, Mark Felt, thought he should have gotten the gig. And, well, as ‘Deep Throat’ he used selective leaks to tie the Nixon Administration to the Watergate burglary and an administration was brought down.
Now the entire 7th Floor of the FBI seems to be of a single mind... the Left is Good... Republicans must be destroyed if they oppose. So, yeah, it’s much worse now. But to paraphrase a famous Democrat... “The FBI was never all that great.”
“The next GOP President should disband them completely...”
It’s funny that you think there will ever be another Republican President now that the Left knows it can lock in unfair election laws and cheat with impunity.
” next GOP President”. You have a lot more confidence in that happening than I do. By 2028 I fear there will be only the Democratic People’s Party.
