(WND)—In the wake of the George Floyd riots of 2020, public confidence in law enforcement agencies faltered to the point where some agencies lost funding. At this time of low morale and support, it tended to be Republicans who continued supporting the police.
Now, the leading law enforcement agency in the country, the FBI, has allowed itself to become a political weapon, and in doing so lost the confidence of the remaining supporters of police.
The federal agency, which was generally respected for the work it did, has now shown itself as biased and partisan, and certainly lacking in integrity, which is part of the FBI motto. Its persecution of innocent people and ignoring political lawbreaking on the left has left the agency at the mercy of the Democrats who corrupted it in the first place.
Americans realize this and are putting the FBI on notice that a strong majority of the public don’t trust them. Things are so bad that when the FBI posted, “The FBI wishes everyone a safe and happy holiday season!” on X with a picture of a fire in a fireplace, people voiced their displeasure with the agency in the comments. Some were quite funny, but most were scathing:
- “Are you guys burning evidence that could convict Hunter Biden in that fire?”
- “🎶Inconvenient citizens roasting on an open fire …”
- “You being unemployed or in prison is the holiday gift America needs.”
- “Even their fire leans left.”
- “In case you haven’t noticed, Americans have lost all respect for you. You have no one to blame but yourselves.”
- “How fitting! A Dumpster Fire.”
- “Still investigating churchgoers?”
- “Good thing the FBI is busy prosecuting grandmas who walked into the Capitol holding a flag on January 6th…”
One respondent summed up the general sentiment best, writing, “Everybody hates you.”
While it might not be everyone who hates the FBI, it is far too many people. A recent Harvard CAPS-Harris poll found that 70% of the respondents were either very or somewhat concerned about interference by the FBI and other intelligence agencies in elections. Forget about Russian interference, more Americans think the FBI is trying to fix the election.
Slightly more respondents (71%) believe that not enough has been done since the 2016 election to stop election interference.
Of course, while the FBI has lost the confidence of Republicans, it has gained support of Democrats. However, it will only have that support so long as it is a useful tool to them. It is a situation of politics making strange bedfellows. The left traditionally hates law enforcement. Sooner or later, it will turn on the FBI, leaving it with no support from either the left or right.
At a time where police are regaining support because rising crime in their absence has shown that police are needed, support for the FBI is falling.
The agency once performed a needed service as federal law enforcement. Now that it has shown it is no longer interested in enforcing the laws of the land, it is showing that it is no longer needed.
At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.

Hey, I still respect them.——– Long live the FIB!
They’re a gang. They no longer honor their oath.
Do you mean the Federal Bureau of You Talkin To Me?
Article 1 Section 8 Powers of Congress….find the authority for creating the fbi….and I’ll respect it….
The FBI was created with the stroke of a pen. So it can be abolished the same way.
FBI. A bunch of dudes who hide behind their sunglasses and high powered weapons to feel big.
Frauds, Bullies, Intimidators, corrupt as can be, no one should trust them. They have become the Stasi, the Gestapo, the KGB, the SS and SD. They ignore the U.S. Constitution and the Oath that they took to it.
Ummm , . ZERO mention by WND that the FBI this week is in VIOLATION OF A FEDERAL COURT ORDER to release the Seth Rich laptops?!?! The FBI refuses to release real evidence, covering it up — AS USUAL!!!
Thanks, WND, usual stuff MINUS all facts!!!
“The federal agency, which was generally respected for the work it did” —- what a WND false narrative — many gave up on the feebs SIXTY years ago when the feebs destroyed EVIDENCE related to the JFK assassination — — as did the Secret Service and NSA! (Assuming the CIA might have as well, but no evidence on that yet?!)
Wasn’t it the FBI who was involved in the 1993 bombing at the WTC, the World Trade Center?!?!
The 2006 FOIA’d notes of top intelligence dude, Stephen Cambone (Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligenxe — he oversaw the NSA, DIA, NRO, NGA, etc.) revealed that it was now known that “federal agents” tracked the Saudi/Yemeni hijackers of FLIGHT 77 up until they actually board the airliner — even taking two of the three aside for an interview!? WERE those “federal agents” FBI?!?! Probably . . .
Lesding up to 9/11 and 3,000 dead — — field agents of the FBI sent hundreds and hundreds of warnings of a prob able upcoming terrorist strike, but FBI managers Frasca and Maltbie chose to ignore them!?!?!
MEMORANDUM 112
Other than the FBI ignoring the Chicom biowarfare lab in Reedley, California, and the FBI classifying those 21 evidence exhibits from the Charles Lieber trial in Boston (the Wuhan University of Technology/Nanotechnology Lab guy and his syringe–injectable NANOWIRES); other than Peter Strzok, James Baker, Karen Greenaway, Rod Rosenstein, Andrew McCabe, James Comey, Robert Mueller★, Elvis Chan, Brian Auten, Patrick Fallon, Clint Watts, Daniel James, Joseph Pietnka, Rita Flack, Dave Frasca, Michael Maltbie and too many others — why would anyone possibly be suspicious of the FBI/Stasi?!
★ Robert Swan Truesdale Mueller III, grandnephew of fired CIA deputy director, Richard Bissell
“Americans Now Distrust and Mock the FBI”
OK, you forgot contempt. There is also mutual contempt. Albeit they have a lot more for Americans than Americans have for them. But that is changing.
Just tossing out a question here: If you were seated on a jury, and the prosecution presented evidence that came from the FBI, would that make you more or less likely to vote ‘guilty’?
The USA is so full of CORRUPT JUDGES and FBI agents on the TAKE! you wonder how many Bribe Envelopes he or she took.
“While it might not be everyone who hates the FBI, it is far too many people.”
Are you kidding me? EVERYONE should hate them. Anyone who doesn’t is either woefully uninformed or as corrupt as they are.
