Clueless FBI

Bureaucrats from the FBI were questioned by the Senate today.  The topic of discussion was the January 6th 'Insurrection' at the Capitol.  When asked about Ray Epps, who has been trending in the news of late, neither had any idea about him.  Really?  Senator Cotton asked if they had prepared for the hearing.  Clearly, Ray Epps should be a person of interest that would have been covered in background for anyone sent to testify about the event.  Nope.  When asked if Ray Epps was a Fed, they didn't know.  Not a yes, not a no.  Don't know.  Did the FBI have people in the crowd on January 6th?  Did any of them commit crimes or incite violence.  Can't say.  Not a denial, but a plead of ignorance.

The FBI has ceased to be a law enforcement agency and become a political one.  It gladly jumped on the Steele Dossier, using it to get wiretaps on Trump associates.  However, Hilary's offsite server was brushed aside and everyone connected to it was granted immunity.  Hunter Biden's laptop was 'Russian disinformation' until after the election, when it turned out it was really his laptop.  When Obama was president, the FBI had it out for Trump and covered for Hilary.  When Trump was president, the FBI had it out for Trump and covered for Biden.  Huh.

By its nature, government officials are overwhelmingly pro-government.  The Democrats are far more pro-government than Republicans.  It is thus no surprise that government agencies tend to side with the party that is pro-government and eager to allocate more money and power to government agencies.  In a country almost evenly split between the parties, the seat of government - Washington DC - votes 90% for Democrats.  They are all feeding at the government trough and vote for their interests.
