‘Politically Captured Agency’: Why a Former FBI Agent Wants to Defund the Bureau
23rd August 2024
The FBI shouldn’t be weaponized to pick winners and losers, which is exactly what it has done by targeting pro-lifers and failing to investigate pro-abortion vandals, former FBI agent Steve Friend says.
“What we’re seeing is a politically captured agency that is not only interested in the results,” Friend told The Daily Signal. “They want to get overwhelming results, so they’re putting their fingers and entire arms on the scale.”
FBI whistleblower Friend joined “The Daily Signal Podcast” to discuss his experience in the FBI, why he left in 2022, and the weaponization of the bureau against those with religious or political ideologies deemed to be a “threat.”
