She joined the FBI after watching the World Trade Center collapse before her eyes, leaving a lucrative job at a hedge fund.
As a Special Agent in Miami, she worked on many high-profile cases and won awards and accolades for her hard work and diligence.
Last year she resigned in disgust. The FBI had turned its sights from fighting crime to fighting Americans’ freedoms.
Former FBI Special Agent Nicole Parker broke down in tears Thursday while testifying during a congressional hearing.
Parker said during the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government’s inaugural hearing that she left her job at a hedge fund after 9/11 to serve her country, working as an FBI Special Agent from 2011-2022.
“I considered it a very sacred responsibility and was honored to be trusted to protect and serve the American people,” Parker said, recounting how she joined a Miami field office.
“Participating in the investigations of myriad criminal cases, the Majorie Stoneman Douglas high school shooting in Parkland, Florida,” Parker said as she began to break down.
“The 2017 Fort Lauderdale airport shooting, the Cesar Sayoc pipe bomb case-” she continued, listing other areas she covered as she wept.
“It was emotionally jarring, but I believed I was making an impactful difference. And every day I woke up and embraced being a Special FBI agent until things changed. Over the course of my 12+ years, the FBI’s trajectory has transformed. On paper, the bureau’s mission has remained the same but its priorities and governing principles shifted dramatically. The FBI became politically weaponized from the top in Washington and trickling down to the field offices.”
Her testimony before Jim Jordan’s House Committee to investigate the weaponization of the federal government against Americans’ freedoms was riveting. Former Special Agent Parker tearfully recounted how disillusioned and then appalled she became as, over the years, top FBI officials used their power to pursue highly political, partisan ends.
Ends such as targeting Catholic traditionalists as dangerous, potentially white supremacist extremists. Jazz has that story. You should read it because it shows just how far off the track the FBI has gone.
FBI Agent Parker breaks down in tears as she describes how there are "2 FBI's" and how current agents know Americans are losing faith in their institution.

The FBI has been going off track for years now, having participated in the regime of social media censorship and conspiring against President Trump when he was in office. Since Biden came to power it has only gotten worse, with Merrick Garland’s guidance it has targeted parents concerned about how their kids are being sexualized and dehumanized by the public schools and begun labeling conservatives as potential domestic terrorists.
You and I have targets on our backs.

Imagine being a patriot who personally watched the Twin Towers collapse and switched careers to defend Americans’ freedoms. Imagine sacrificing so much to do the right thing. And then imagine watching your bosses betray everything America stands for.
This is why Jordan’s committee exists. The government has been weaponized against ordinary Americans in the service of the Left’s lust for power. The FBI, the CIA, the NSA, and the Department of Defense, it seems, have all been enlisted to suppress Americans’ rights to speak, to associate, to petition their government, and even, it appears, to pray together.
Our Founders would be appalled. Every American today should be appalled. The Democrats in Congress should join hands with Republicans to root out this corruption.
Instead, they have vowed to fight the investigation. To stonewall. To push for more censorship. To shield the corrupt. They are making a strong push to discredit the committee.
Because they benefit from the corruption. It is disgusting and must be ended.
The @HouseGOP just created a committee investigating weaponization of the federal government they plan to use as a weapon itself.

The ghost of J Edgar Hoover lives on.
The Republicans in Congress have to get people on both sides to realize they are being spied on by the FBI...
“BLM organizer distributed guns, urged activists to become more militant and go on the offensive against the police. He was secretly paid by the FBI. The FBI stoked violence among naive young radicals in order to undermine them”

Sue Thomas would agree.
If you condemn the FBI here always remember, they are everywhere, watching, recording, and creating files to intimidate and blackmail you. It seems the American people are pretty much in a war against the Federal Government as they have weaponized the FBI, NSA, ATF and others against us.
There should be a new Federal Law put in place. Local and Federal Agents and Police are not allowed to encourage or promote the commission of a crime during an investigation. Lying to the FBI should not be a criminal charge either.
“Former FBI Special Agent Nicole Parker broke down in tears Thursday while testifying during a congressional hearing.”
Her statement was excellent; bless her.
> Lying to the FBI should not be a criminal charge either. <
Agreed. And who is to decide what is a lie, and what is just a simple misstatement? Plus, if the FBI can lie to you (and they will), then you should be able to lie right back.
But of course it’s always best to not talk to them at all. The Founders crafted the Fifth Amendment for good reason.
I have an idea! Let’s throw trillions more dollars at the FBI, Double the # of agents, and build it a new building twice the size of the Pentagon (the largest building in the world)! That’ll fix it!
Many in DC say the front line rank and file FBI agents are good Americans even as they dishonor their oath to serve the people, the law and our Constitution. I disagree with that premise. Too many FBI agents are criminals and thuggish little tin god types who abuse their authority by following orders to do the evil of their superiors. More should honor their oath, demonstrate credibility and quit the FBI when ordered to illegally abuse their fellow American citizens.
The largest building in the world is the Boeing 747 assembly plant in Everett, WA. (Anyway it WAS the 747 assembly plant until last Dec 6, when 747 #1574 rolled off the line, ending a 51 year production run.)
Bttt
Check out Ozark sometime. Says a lot about fibs.
Impeach Biden, fire the FBI leadership.
Yeah...pretty interesting show, although it went off the rails toward the end. Hearing stories like that woman governor kidnap scheme makes the portrayal of the FIB in that show very believable!
The fib turned homo a while back and they guard their shit.
You are absolutely correct. The only good ones are the ones stepping up to be whistleblowers. PERIOD. FULL STOP.
The FBI had turned its sights from fighting crime to fighting Americans’ freedoms.
It’s starting to look like the 1984 book was a manual after all?.
When Trump took office the truth exposed itself about the powers that be.
