The FBI: Has it become the secret police force of the Democrat party?

 Over at The Federalist Margot Cleveland a piece calling out the FBI Director as disengenous in his remarks concerning the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago Monday. The article is entitled FBI Dirctor Calls Legit Criticism of Corrupt FBI 'Violence,' But We Weren't Born Yesterday

FBI Director Christopher Wray’s Thursday statement represents a disgraceful attempt to silence critics by conflating condemnation of the bureau’s conduct with violence and threats against law enforcement. This outrageous tactic will not work, and that Wray resorted to it confirms he no longer deserves to be FBI director.

“Unfounded attacks on the integrity of the FBI erode respect for the rule of law and are a grave disservice to the men and women who sacrifice so much to protect others,” Wray began his short, four-sentence statement, before immediately pivoting to the truism that “violence and threats against law enforcement, including the FBI, are dangerous and should be deeply concerning to all Americans.”

By calling criticism “attacks” and then immediately warning the country of the danger “violence and threats” against the FBI pose, Wray deceitfully framed legitimate speech as violence or, at a minimum, the threat of violence. The object of this framing is obvious: to silence Americans who have finally found their voice following the FBI’s raid of Trump’s private residence at Mar-a-Lago.

In 2016 when the Republican primaries looked like a DeMille movie with a cast of thousands, I was not in favor of Donald Trump. But the more the media and the Democrats (but I repeat myself) got wound up about him, the more I looked into him. Ultimately, I voted for him, and for once the guy I voted for did a lot of what he had promised to do. This was not your typical politician. I could wish that my Congress critter and Senators would do the same.

So, yes, I voted for him again in 2020. While I expect a certain amount of shenanagans in elections, particularly the usual stuff like raising the dead to vote and busing people from precinct to precint to vote, the level of rigging in this election was astounding. Couple that with the Russia hoax, with the Mueller investigation, with two attempts to impeach him, with the drive to put away everyone who was in Washington, D.C. on January 6...They are really afraid of this man and his supporters. But what, one wonders, do the FBI and the Democrats have to be afraid of if everything they are doing is upright and above board?

More importantly, though, the FBI and indeed, all law enforcement should be scrupulously nonpartisan.  They should apply the law equally for all parties.  But it is clear that the FBI and the DOJ have become the not so secret police force of the Democrat party.
