"It's FBI Headquarters, NOT the field agents."
We've heard that one before (Hansen spy scandal, 9/11 misses, etc.). No need to run that out again - there is more to the story.
It wasn't just HQ guys raiding Mar a Largo. It wasn't HQ guys rounding up hapless (and often totally innocent) Americans hiding in their parents shed after J6. The fake Russian Dossier (and the Carter Page wiretap) didn't happen without local field office help. The local field offices all lined up for their BLM/DEI training while their cities suffered antifa-led organized crime violent demonstrations. The local guys arrested anti-abortion trad-Catholics. Delaware's office (Baltimore office also?) turned down the Hunter Biden laptop case - the poor computer shop owner had to fly to Albuquerque to get an audience through a family connection. Agents nationwide covered work to identify anti-vaxxers, muh white supremacists, and supposed radical conservatives (likely including this forum). Heck, it was RETIRED Agents that were actively censoring Americans via Twitter, Facebook, etc, during the previous election (totally confirmed by their owners). We have whole threads dominated by the question: "is your favorite alt-right guy/organization actually a fed honeypot?" And it is a legit question, as many are at least infiltrated, if not controlled. The sham Whitmer kidnapping case was loaded with local agents doing dirty.
None of these things happened without local agent work. Maybe not all of the agents, but enough to keep the shams rolling. It's sad, but the rot has moved down from the head, thru the neck, and is into the thoracic cavity. I don't know how to clean the agency up without killing* the patient, as it might already be dead to honest total function. *This is not a physical threat to anyone.
Don't buy the line. It's going to take a lot more than a HQ clean up.
