A long and sordid history

Dismantle both of them, root, branch, and bough.

The Historical Corruption of the FBI and CIA

The FBI and the CIA have been involved in numerous scandals and instances of corruption over the last 70 years. These scandals have included illegal surveillance, wiretapping, blackmail, and other tactics aimed at social movements, as well as unethical experiments, failed operations, and human rights abuses. These scandals have not only damaged the reputation of these agencies, but also eroded public trust in the government as a whole.

It is important to hold these agencies accountable for their actions and to demand transparency and oversight in their operations. The FBI and CIA are necessary for protecting national security, but they must do so within the bounds of the law and without violating the rights of citizens or engaging in unethical practices.

In recent years, there have been efforts to reform these agencies and improve their accountability, including the implementation of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) and the creation of the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board (PCLOB). However, more needs to be done to address the root causes of corruption and scandal within these agencies.

Ultimately, the FBI and CIA must work to rebuild public trust and demonstrate their commitment to upholding the law and protecting the rights of citizens. This will require a concerted effort to address past wrongs, implement reforms, and foster a culture of accountability and transparency within these agencies. Only then can the FBI and CIA truly fulfill their vital role in safeguarding national security while upholding the principles of democracy and justice.

A “vital role” that, strangely enough, is mentioned nowhere in the US Constitution, not even once. As such, “more” will always “need to be done,” until such time as the American escutcheon has been cleansed of the stain left upon it by their corruption, fully-witting election-tampering, and general thuggishness.

  1. The FBI simply gets disbanded. They do far more damage than help to the American people, and that was when they were trying to catch some of the bad guys. Now they are irredeemable.

    The CIA, gone. Turn over all the intelligence to military intelligence, and fire all the commies in the military and at state.

    Add the State dept. Cut it by 2/3’s. Even then it will be “fat”.

    Get rid of any and all federal departments that states can perform the functions of when there is even a function worth performing.

  2. Not merely disband, but also execute for their treason. Them put their heads on pikes around the Beltway.
    Pour encourager les autres.

    If you paid your Mafia taxes, they actually PROTECTED you.
    Seen any sign of that from your GOVERNMENT lately???

  3. There’s nothing wrong with both organizations that couldn’t best be solved by a couple of small suitcase nukes at their HQ, with all personnel present for duty at detonation.

    Failing that, lining them up against a wall and shooting them all would be a good second choice, followed by farming any actually constructive activities out to agencies with no armed agents, and requiring that as a condition of continued existence.

    There is clearly a need for a national intelligence apparatus, but for starters, the people working there should have some.

    And while one can make the case for a national-level investigative agency, having a state police force of JBTs is a much harder sell, but if you’re going to do it, anyone with any experience in the current one should be barred from federal employment for life, just for openers, on the grounds that they’re hopelessly corrupt and irredeemably tainted.

Notable Quotes

"America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards."
Claire Wolfe, 101 Things to Do 'Til the Revolution

Claire's Cabal—The Freedom Forums

FREEDOM!!!

"There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
Daniel Webster

“When I was young I was depressed all the time. But suicide no longer seemed a possibility in my life. At my age there was very little left to kill.”
Charles Bukowski

“A slave is one who waits for someone to come and free him.”
Ezra Pound

“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”
Frank Zappa

“The right of a nation to kill a tyrant in case of necessity can no more be doubted than to hang a robber, or kill a flea.”
John Adams

"A society of sheep must in time beget a government of wolves."
Bertrand de Jouvenel

"It is terrible to contemplate how few politicians are hanged."
GK Chesterton

"I predict that the Bush administration will be seen by freedom-wishing Americans a generation or two hence as the hinge on the cell door locking up our freedom. When my children are my age, they will not be free in any recognizably traditional American meaning of the word. I’d tell them to emigrate, but there’s nowhere left to go. I am left with nauseating near-conviction that I am a member of the last generation in the history of the world that is minimally truly free."
Donald Surber

"The only way to live free is to live unobserved."
Etienne de la Boiete

"History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid."
Dwight D. Eisenhower

"To put it simply, the Left is the stupid and the insane, led by the evil. You can’t persuade the stupid or the insane and you had damn well better fight the evil."
Skeptic

"There is no better way to stamp your power on people than through the dead hand of bureaucracy. You cannot reason with paperwork."
David Black, from Turn Left For Gibraltar

"If the laws of God and men, are therefore of no effect, when the magistracy is left at liberty to break them; and if the lusts of those who are too strong for the tribunals of justice, cannot be otherwise restrained than by sedition, tumults and war, those seditions, tumults and wars, are justified by the laws of God and man."
John Adams

"The limits of tyranny are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress."
Frederick Douglass

"Give me the media and I will make of any nation a herd of swine."
Joseph Goebbels

“I hope we once again have reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There’s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: As government expands, liberty contracts.”
Ronald Reagan

"Ain't no misunderstanding this war. They want to rule us and aim to do it. We aim not to allow it. All there is to it."
NC Reed, from Parno's Peril

"I just want a government that fits in the box it originally came in."
Bill Whittle
