(POLL) Voter distrust of the FBI grows


Fewer voters trust the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) now, and many say the agency is acting as President Joe Biden’s “personal Gestapo,” referring to Hitler’s police in WWII Germany.

That’s according to a new survey of 1,000 likely voters by Rasmussen Reports.

Now, 47% view the FBI unfavorably, including 26% who have a very unfavorable impression. That’s significantly worse than in May 2020.

The national survey finds that 46% of likely US voters have a favorable impression of the FBI, including 15% who have a very favorable view of the agency.

In May 2020, 60% of voters had a favorable impression of the FBI.

  1. For decades, it was primarily the left that attacked the FBI and CIA, sometimes with good reason. But that began to pivot a few years ago, and now it is usually conservatives who express distrust of those agencies. In fact, things have changed so much that people on the left sometimes suggest that it is “un-American,” even “treasonous,” to distrust those organizations.

    What does this tell us? That the left now believes it owns and controls those agencies. I always harken back to Chuck Schumer’s comments in 2017: “The intelligence agencies have six ways from Sunday to get back at their critics.” This statement was made with an approving smirk, not with a sense of alarm or outrage, and it indicated that Senator Schumer was quite confident that those agencies would never go after anyone who was a member of “the club,” to use Macron’s phrase. Tellingly, no one on the left criticized Schumer’s chilling comments.

    Ever since then, we have seen more and more evidence that our intelligence agencies are active members of a globalist cabal intent on subverting the Constitution and undermining the rule of law and the equal protection of the laws. BLM and Antifa rioters typically get a slap on the wrist, or have their cases dropped entirely, whereas the search to implicate as many people as possible in the January 6th riot continues more than a year after the event.

    January 6th may indeed have been one of the greatest threats to “democracy” in our history, but for exactly the opposite reasons that the left claims. It was a threat to “democracy” because it was one more instance of the Deep State manipulating an event for its own purposes in order to discredit an entire political movement and its most prominent face, Dondald Trump.

    Until Merrick Garland can provide a good reason why Ray Epps and several other high-profile instigators of the events of January 6th have not been charged, I will take it has a given that those men had ties to the intelligence agencies and were acting under their orders. You can take Chuck Schumer’s word for it.

    1. Time to realize that the FBI and other intelligence agencies cannot, and will not, be reformed. The corruption is too deep and widespread. They operate more like the Cheka in communist Russia, or the Gestapo in Nazi Germany, both leftist organizations with no ethics or morals in their operations. A clear and present danger to the American public.

  2. What a surprise.
    The only individuals who actually served time after all of the fraudulent banking and financial activity which led up to the great recession of 2008-2009 were Bernie Madoff (who was allegedly running a $500 billion ponzi scheme that collapsed under the weight of fraud) and Martha Stewart who was convicted of lying to an FBI agent and served time for that putative offense.
    Wait- it gets better. That FBI agent was James Comey.
    Can’t make this up.

    Holography is described as a technique that enables a wavefront to be recorded and later reconstructed. Therefore in terms of a hologram, the truth becomes relative. I never ever considered that a thing such as “truth” could be relative, but I was wrong. Some biologists have attempted to dismiss the theory of ID or Intelligent Design by claiming that some living organisms evolved giving the appearance of having been designed. This argument seems to say that what you see with your eyes is not really what you see. Hypnosis is defined as putting a person in a state where the hypnotist may suggest something that is not true or desireable, buy yet is carried out by the subject of the hypnotic exercise. Subliminal methods are used to convey a message to a person without the person’s knowledge. Is it unreasonable to consider that an FBI agent, or any other law enforcer could unknowingly become a victim of any of the above described tactics? Is our society and/or the world at large immune from such methods? What sort of a person or forces must we consider if we attempt to define the real meaning of “truth.” What is truth?
