Whistleblower: FBI threatened to fire agents who criticized emphasis on Jan. 6 investigations
Washington Times ^ | June 25, 2023 | Kerry Picket

An FBI whistleblower has revealed to Congress that Deputy Director Paul Abbate threatened to fire agents and other bureau employees who said there were disparities in the responses to the U.S. Capitol riot in 2021 and the George Floyd riots in 2020.

In an affidavit delivered to Congress, the unnamed FBI worker said Mr. Abbate made the threats during a secured video teleconference with the special agents in charge of the bureau’s 56 field offices. Mr. Abbate told these supervisors that some agents were questioning the massive investigative response to pro-Trump demonstrators storming the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

“Abbate told the audience that anyone who questions the FBI’s response or his decisions regarding the response to Jan. 6 did not belong in the FBI and should find a different job — or something to that effect,” according to the affidavit.

Besides a couple of whistleblowers no one employed at the FBI should ever be allowed to have a government position again. They are either overtly engaging in civil rights abuses or they are complicit in their silence.

Government employees are enemies of America - all 2+ million of them.

If there were any justice in this world they should never see the outside of a prison wall again.

In “Old America” Abate would have already been jailed, or at very least, disgraced and ostracized by ‘real’ agents.
That was when Poetic Justice was more likely to happen.
Now, it’s a matter of which Gang do you belong to?

Dave Bowdich was removed as Deputy Director as soon as Biden got in there.

In the left wing orbit, Bowdich was seen as not sufficiently aggressive against “right wing terrorism”.

But don’t think of Bowdich as some sort of hero or white hat.

He is Swamp.

Roseanne Boyland did not die of a drug overdose.

She was crushed, suffocated and beaten in the head, with a baton, by a black female cop.

The other 2 deaths occured when flash bangs, illegally thrown into crowds of civilians, went off next to peaceful protestors, precipitating cardiac / stroke events.
