    LOL.. no wait, you didn't just go away after being keel hauled for your support of the surveillance/authoritarian state???? When the FBI becomes the method authoritarians use to attack the people and their rights, how should we describe your support? Instead of playing nanananabubu, tell us why there is something useful, or otherwise needful in maintaining a national agency like the FBI.

    You continue to support them, do yo not?

    This is emphatically correct. However, nearly all Democrats also signed the Patriot act is when I left the Republican party.

    Never said that. It seems everything is black or white to you.

    And you feel the need to ascribe positions to me that I have never expressed. Weird.

    It was also Bill Clinton that signed the bill to repeal the sunset provision.

    If you rise to attack other posters for their position on the FBI, and you don't have an agenda other than to try to erode their credibility, but absent your own conviction, you created the narrative yourself. I mean, the only other explanation was the you were simply trolling other posters...

    And now, having been asked to take a side, you choose not to. So, just trolling then.. got it.

    Something the constitution does not grant the federal government. The FBI is not the police and to claim they are the same is to show one’s lack of understanding between the two.

    Nah....the FBI and the federal bureaucracy aren't joined at the hip with the "progressive" fascists in the Democratik Party at all.

    Yep. The “defund the police” movement is back with a vengeance. And apparently a new face.

    Why, yes, and it's what the nomenklatura and apparatchiks in every rights-repressive "progressive" sh*thole have done.

    Big Government, and one of its perks is an incestuous relationship with a lawless, extraconstitutional fourth branch of government.

    What are you? Msm? First, you can support local police and be against the federalized law enforcement. Second, How is moving funds to other agencies equivalent to defunding.

    In no way can you interpret my post as 'defunding the police' without a lot of disingenuous brain yoga.

    The other agencies will still enforce the law. The goal is to protect the innocent people, which not only includes against criminals but also from a state and government that has too much power.

    So who should enforce federal laws and statues? As far as the story goes, I'll wait for the actual evidence.

    Desentalizing power to prevent corruption used to be a liberal idea but there isn't much liberal left in the left wing.

    The progressives are all about centralizing power to the federal government so that they can control everything. They will be the party to bring CBDC as well. The only freedoms they support are ones like the right to kill the unborn and to get special benefits for being in one of the special groups that will vote them more power.

    The FBI isn't "police".
