Parents protesting adoption of CRT targeted by FBI after comments from AG

I hate throwing the baby out with the bath water. Like them or lump them, they've had some pretty solid successes. They have also laid the turd or ten, and engaged in outrageous, egregious behavior. Not to mention their 'we're so secure no one can penetrate us' attitude has led to some embarrassment with CI work.

But being the old libertarian that I am, I say enjoin the FBI, ATF, SS, and DEA into one agency, cut the redundancy, create better oversight, and limit the scope.

The federal government should be restricted to the U.S. Marshals Service for federal arrest powers. The Federal Protective Service can cover everything else where an armed security guard is needed.

Edit: Pretty much exactly what Diamondback posted. LOL

Personally, I'd go a step further... consolidate all armed federal LE into the Marshals Service and reduce the others to specialized "technical/SME support" roles. Concentrate all fixed-site security into FPS (goodbye Kapitolpolizei Sturmabteilung) and all "specific individual protection" (no more DSS) to the Secret Service.

I could be down with that. I think for the black eyes counterintelligence has given FBI over the decades, they do that pretty well. Yes, secret service for all PSD/digpro work.

I would say the same thing for the intelligence community. Fold CIA, DIA, State Department's intelligence, national reconnaissance office, all into one department.

You know the Louden County Father was used as an excuse to get the FBI in on it right?
That guy was trying to protest because his Daughter was anally raped by a boy wearing a dress in the Girls Bathroom.

And then the Louden County officials still claimed that there had been zero assaults; and the same rapist was moved to another school and did it again! It's no wonder this guy went ballistic. Okay to go after the Catholic church for widespread sexual misconduct but not the MUCH bigger problem in the public school system?? My boys are out now and I don't have to deal, but I'd be moving heaven and earth to get them home-schooled at this point, the public system is broken beyond repair

Interesting wrinkle here... long article claims that one of the most dramatic school-board meeting battles related to a student's rape and the father's attempt to speak about the rape and lack of appropriate school response.

The DOEd and the FBI are bad enough- but the people that went hands on that guy were local LEOs/Sheriff. They need to be put in their place post haste. They got played and they need to assert publicly that they will not be the strong arm the leftist haters. IF they don't, they need replaced.

So, after reading most of the posts, simple conclusion: FBI = Gestapo + KGB all in one useless .gov agency. Lovely.

Your reading comprehension is excellent. If Durham is ever allowed to fully investigate and report, it will be even more apparent.

I'd love to see a US Attorney file RICO complaints against the FBI.... DOn't laugh. That is what the left would do if the tables were turned...

That was *supposed* to be the entire point of creating a "Central Intelligence Agency" in the first place... and all this bullshit about "Director of NATIONAL Intel" is the job that DCI was *supposed* to be doing all those decades.

Seriously, though, you show me a resume that has CIA anywhere on it and I don't need any more before I'm calling Security to escort you off the premises... unless it's Culinary Institute of America for chef training.
