The FBI Is a Den of Scum and Villainy

I believed in the FBI. Growing up, I thought, as most boys did, about being a “cop” and the best cops were the FBI.

That myth was shattered long before Peter Strzok and James Comey. The FBI has been in steady decline for decades. Now the FBI is a joke. Populated with political hacks and agents willingly creating crimes to make criminals, it is a shell of what it once was, or what we thought it should be. “Entrapment” is a defense to a crime that almost never flies, but it did in Michigan because it was perfectly clear that the Bureau created the plot to kidnap Whitmer. When agents aren’t entrapping dummies in Michigan they’re after moms who don’t want their children ruined.

Actual crime and catching real criminals take a back seat.
