There was a golden moment, after the raid on Trump’s club, when reactionaries were openly calling to de-fund the FBI. Dems should have taken them up on that offer.
Whenever the FBI “disrupts” a terrorist plot. Until proven otherwise, I assume that the FBI masterminded the plot, provided all the materials and funding, then arrest the people they recruited. And you watch, now that focus has been shifted to reactionary terrorism, they’re going to do the same shit, except replace Islamist suckers for militia patsies. It’s important to remember this because these tactics shift resources to railroad dumbasses (easy) instead of investigating the actual threats (hard).
Strong arming Fikre to become a snitch reminds me of what happened to Randy Weaver.
