It is interesting that the FBI's biggest supporters today are liberals. All they hear on his MSNBC is singing from the same song sheet his disgraced former CIA and his FBI operatives turned into his respected and highly paid TV pundit is to listen to
At the same time, a majority of Americans, 53%, called his FBI "Joe Biden's personal "Gestapo".
The agency's position is rock bottom among Republicans and conservatives, and not very healthy among independents and moderates.
Only 50% of all voters had a favorable opinion in polls taken Monday and Tuesday, a week after the FBI's erratic probe into former President Donald Trump's mansion
However, while only 30% of Republicans and 45% of independents are positive about the FBI, 75% and 81% of Democrats liberals are big fans.
Since the Mar-a-Lago raid, 70% of Republicans say they have less trust in the FBIcompared to 50% of Democrats trusts his FBI more.
``Politicalized thugs''
Among Republicans, a staggering 76% said ``Politicalized thugs at the top of the FBI'' I agree with Roger Stone that there is a group of A person using the FBI. As Joe Biden's personal Gestapo," about half (49%) of independents and his sizable 37% of Democrats see the FBI as Biden's Gestapo, whereas liberals see his 72% disagree.
Liberals are content because their politicized institutions are after their ideological enemies, especially their veteran noir Trump. It's a complete shift from the days of condemning the FBI's efforts to target The left has given up pretending to care about civil liberties and injustice, instead sneering at conservatives.
But conservatives Professionally law and order is what it used to be, which is why we frown on a lying and leaking FBI that has proven unreliable, especially in the era of “Trump Resistance.”
God knows Trump is no saint and we still don't know what the FBI was looking for in the documents they seized last Monday. But to justify sending dozens of armed operatives to storm the former president's home and pick off his wife's underwear three months before the midterm elections, it would take a national security Must be a security emergency.
Attorney General Merrick Garland refused to justify the raid, saying the Department of Justice "speaks" only through court filings. 133}
So why leak dubious information to supporting institutions such as the New York Times and the Washington Post, giving rise to all sorts of good reasons?
Garland and his FBI Director Christopher His Ray have voiced their criticisms of the FBI and his DOJ last week.
But he trusted the FBI more than 44% of Americans said they had less confidence after his Mar-a-Lago raid. only he was 29%. The threat will be fixed.
There must still be some decent people in the FBI. In October 2020, investigators launched an investigation and dismissed it as Russian disinformation.
their own arrogance, Abuse of power, denial of accountability has ruined the reputation of the FBI.
Don't listen to me. Listen to Inspector General Michael Horowitz, who accused the FBI of all sorts of failures and deceptions, including its failure to protect the civil liberties of Americans with surveillance warrants.
In his December 2019 malicious crossfire on Trump-Russia collusion in his report on his Hurricane investigation, FBI attorney Kevin Kleinsmith said that Trump The campaign discovers that his advisor Carter has tampered with documents to get his Paige wiretapped. The FBI is actively investigating Trump's ties to Russia.
Horowitz also dated his FBI agent Peter Struck, who led Crossfire's Hurricane, in the summer of 2016, and his mistress and his FBI attorney. A text between Lisa Page (now his MSNBC legal analyst) was "deeply troubled" by his message. , they called Trump an "idiot" and worried if he would win the election. "We will stop it," Strzok wrote, referring to the mysterious "insurance policy" he had revealed in the unlikely event of a Trump victory.
Direct Dial
Former counterintelligence federal prosecutor Kash Patel saysthere is a direct line from Hillary Clinton's emailsto Hunter Biden's laptop suppression, Russian collusion hoax in Mar-a-Lago raid.143}
Patel, a Trump supporter, worked on the House Intelligence Committee as an aide to then-Rep. Devin Nunes uncovered his Russiagate scandal in which the Clinton campaign and his FBI tried to frame Trump as a Russian agent who stole his 2016 election.
Now he suspects Marr his raid on Largo is part of a cover-up to prevent all the truth about Russiagate from being revealed.
"Russiagate, Hillary's emails, Hunter Biden's [cover-up], January 6th [Trump investigation], and the current Trump president's house raids It's the same counterintelligence agent," he said. In a phone conversation this week, he said.
Patel had represented Trump in a "bureaucratic battle" with the National Archives over documents related to Russiagate. office.
Whether he succeeded in declassifying documents found in his home is a matter of legal debate.
But the DOJ's slow response meant that "his 40% of the documents were never released."
Patel An "insurance policy" conceived by Strzok, a disgraced agent who believes it is contained in the US, could be used to stop Trump.
In his view, Trump's opponents "are overreacting because they don't want to run for office in 2024. They can't tell you you're under criminal investigation."
If Republicans retake the House of Representatives in November, the Republican Party will be able to "subpoena everybody and force those documents." The American public can finally know the full truth of Russiagate and the rogues. federal bureaucracy.
Without accountability and transparency, the FBI will never regain lost trust.
