US police no longer trust FBI | |
2024-07-27 | |
[RT] The agency has become openly partisan and serves political ends, whistleblowers have said.
The 230-page report was compiled by an alliance of retired and active-duty agents and analysts, who spoke to more than 30 “independent, highly credible” sources across the US. “They are not only reluctant to work with the FBI but reportedly have decided to no longer share actionable, substantive information on criminal and other intelligence-related activity” with the Bureau, because they believe it “has been operating as a partisan federal agency motivated by a political agenda” in recent years, the report’s authors said. The report’s existence was first reported on Wednesday in the New York Post. The document itself was sent to the House Judiciary and House Oversight committees and posted online. The group described a “crisis of confidence” in FBI-led task forces and a “disturbing loss of trust” in the Bureau as a whole, even as Director Christopher Wray testified to Congress about a “complex threat environment” that is unprecedented in his career. Most sources pointed to the FBI’s response to the January 6, 2021 riot at the US Capitol and the August 2022 raid on former President Donald Trump’s Florida residence, Mar-a-Lago. One of the sources described the FBI’s behavior as “that of a Third World country” and argued it “should be dismantled and its personnel prosecuted and given long prison sentences.” Pressure to assist with “J6” cases has led to a belief that the Bureau is driven by a “partisan, political agenda.” One source said they could not understand why the FBI was not going after any other groups with the same fervor. Another said that local officers feared they could be targeted “because of their love for the US” and perceived as “domestic terrorists” based on how they vote. Newer FBI agents “do not bother to conceal their distaste” for traditional political or religious views and openly identify themselves as “woke or liberal,” the head of a multi-agency task force said. Hired on the basis of “diversity, equity and inclusion” (DEI) guidelines, they are “completely worthless” and “the worst batch of people,” the whistleblowers said. The FBI academy at Quantico, Virginia at which new agents are trained “promotes a cult of narcissism” and arrogant superiority, while being intolerably politicized, the report claimed. Meanwhile, the Bureau’s Security Division has been abusing the security clearance process to purge conservative-leaning agents from its ranks. The whistleblowers urged Congress to force the resignation of Wray as “an extreme measure of last resort” and the only way to restore the Bureau’s reputation.

#9 The entire DOJ is suspect. Locals know if the feds show up they will take all the credit if it goes well and publicly blame the local LEOs publicly id it goes bad. |

#4 When local LEOs work with feds they're usually assassinations, like with the ATF in AK or the US Marshalls in NC. |

#2 I doubt local law enforcement has ever had much use for the fed. Too much of that "Ok, we'll take it from here" mentality. |

#1 Depends. When I worked for the bank law enforcement and the FBI worked hand in hand and very well to track down robbers, identify theft, elder abuse, etc. When it comes to investigating normal citizens and possible ties to, for example, sovereign citizens (their uncle/cousin/brother is fucking nuts) they don't trust them at all as they have a tendency to seize property and guns first and then figure out shit later. Normal grunt work, trust. Politically tinged work, not a fucking chance. |
