Today’s FBI makes J. Edgar Hoover’s look ‘reasonable’

Today’s Donald Trump-hating, pro-Hillary Clinton partisan FBI with its elaborate cover-ups and fabrication of evidence makes J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI look entirely reasonable.

Hoover’s gender fluidity and his rumored propensity to wander around in women’s dresses looks pretty good by comparison. By our society’s politically correct standards, Hoover ought to be a hero (or maybe a heroine) to liberalism and the drive-by media.

As a nation, we are not faced with just a few renegade FBI agents, but with ensconced institutional rottenness almost beyond belief.

All you need to know about FBI misconduct can be summed up in eight words: “Waco, Ruby Ridge, Richard Jewell, Hillary exonerated pre-investigation.”
