“FBI obtained Americans’ bank records without subpoena”

Class action suit against BofA.
From the story, BofA took the initiative, collected the data and offered it to the FBI. The feebs should have known better, and there may well be some punitive action that can be taken against the agents involved, but this sure looks like an egregious violation of privacy, and probably unlawful https://www.federalreserve.gov/boarddocs/supmanual/cch/priv.pdf. We know that they aren’t going to charge themselves, so nailing BofA’s hide to the wall will help discourage this kind of behavior. In an ideal world, the individuals in both the bank and agency would be criminally charged. I can dream…

My daughter, who is a lefty and an FBI agent for 20 years, refuses to read the articles I send her about FBI corruption. She retires in a year. She is a devoted daughter but blind to the political corruption.

Nonapod gets it: The Deep State is now a cornered animal, willing to take extreme actions to protect itself.

Those extreme actions may include the smoke screens of an open border and drag show story times.

It’s not surprising really. Our government has simply reached monopoly status, with not enough room between dems and pubies to discern a difference.

And, as with all monopolies, it no longer needs to be ‘best’ at anything. It only needs to stay big. Nothing can be best when it is ‘only’.

Think on it.

It’s looking more and more like the entire federal government must collapse, totally and completely, and become financially destitute before any progress can be made cleaning up agencies like the FBI and IRS.

The Whistle Blower Protection Act of 1989 apparently doesn’t apply to the FBI. At least they don’t think it does. That’s why these whistleblowers have been retaliated against. The Fibbies and the Dems are calling these men traitors and worse. They have been horribly abused and it’s not clear that Congress can do much to help them.

There are probably many agents who could make complaints but are nearing retirement and don’t want to risk their pensions. It’s the “golden handcuffs” syndrome. The treatment of these whistleblowers is a warning to any others out there.
It sickens me.

Reform the FBI? Send the top officials packing. Cut the DC office down to size and put the branch offices under the supervision of the Federal Attorneys for the respective districts. Keep a minder who works for the SCOTUS in the DC headquarters to ensure as little bias and political activity as possible. Or abolish the FBI and start over? whatever needs to be done, it won’t be easy.

I have typically been skeptical of the lurid accusations about organized pedophilia rings among American “elites”.

But as I look at the lengths to which the media and the Democrats are willing to stonewall the public awareness of recent revelations from Durham and concerning evidence from the Biden laptop and Treasury banking records, I have to ask myself, what could compel the media and so many politicians to commit such brazen acts of sophistry, ones that may well destroy their credibility?

It is tempting to assume that there is something far, far worse than the current accusations that these many actors are hiding by lying and committing perjury, and it is becoming ever more possible that my skepticism was completely naive.

So, I think I remember a time when the Deep State was an arm of the Uniparty. That doesn’t seem to be the case anymore. So, I think we should call the Deep State the DEMOCRAT Deep State from now on. What frightens me is how people just can’t SEE what is happening. I’m really hurt and saddened by the people today who think tolerance is only one way, that freedom is good, but just not for everyone and the Constitution is a piece of paper that has to be worked around. I’ve been coming to realizing this for awhile, I wonder how long Bill Maher has been going through his realization.
