After what we\u2019ve seen happening over the last two decades in the intelligence agencies there\u2019s no doubt in my mind that they need to be fundamentally altered.\u00a0 And I don\u2019t think the word dismantle is an exaggeration of what needs to be done.\u00a0 It could be argued that there are functions that the FBI is uniquely suited to perform that need to be done.\u00a0 But I look at those functions as the exceptions.<\/p>\n
I imagine that someone tasked with this dismantling would form a new \u201cgroup within the bureau and reassign all the personnel and infrastructure critical for these useful functions to this new group.\u00a0 Once that is done, he could begin dismantling the rest of the agency without too much fear of meaningful disruption.<\/p>\n
Fire all of the top echelon of management.\u00a0 Assign trusted personnel to take over and begin removing any functionality that has been abused in the past.\u00a0 Using internal rules block the access to FISA courts from anyone who isn\u2019t appointed by the new management.\u00a0 Begin surveilling the use of federal resources by the FBI personnel to find anyone who is running counter-intelligence operations against the new management and the President.\u00a0 And continue to prune back the agency from the top down.<\/p>\n
Look for hidden caches of information on powerful people and figure out what this has been used in the past to blackmail them into doing.\u00a0 Figure out how this information is best disposed of.\u00a0 In some cases, where real crime has occurred, exposing the information may make sense.\u00a0 In other cases, confronting the victim and forcing changes in the status quo may be possible.<\/p>\n
And once power has been wrested from the FBI and other intelligence agencies then the laws that have allowed them to terrorize this nation need to be changed to prevent these abuses from recurring.\u00a0 The obvious one is the Patriot Act.\u00a0 The Supreme Court knows it is unconstitutional but during the supposed \u201cWar on Terror\u201d it allowed the law to stand in order to allow unrestrained pursuit of Islamic terrorists hiding in the United States.\u00a0 I think we\u2019ve learned that the law was meant to be used against all of us.<\/p>\n
And other laws need to be changed.\u00a0 The definition of civil rights needs to be rationally defined to prevent the kind of outrageous overreach that was on display in the federal government\u2019s interference in the Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown cases.\u00a0 And we can\u2019t allow actual domestic terrorists like Antifa and BLM and their confederates in the blue city governments to perpetrate outrages like the George Floyd riots against American citizens.<\/p>\n
And who would be the right person for a Republican president to appoint Attorney General?\u00a0 I\u2019m guessing it will require someone who has worked for the Justice Department.\u00a0 Maybe someone like Rudy Giuliani.\u00a0 He\u2019s getting kind of old but he still might be the right guy.\u00a0 But whoever it is he can\u2019t be like William Barr who just tiptoes around the edges of the FBI and lets the swamp creatures run the show.\u00a0 It has to be someone who is willing to perform radical surgery with a chain saw.\u00a0 Because that is exactly what is needed.<\/p>\n
So, will this ever happen?\u00a0 If we ever want to get our country back it\u2019s a necessity.\u00a0 But it\u2019s going to take brains and guts.\u00a0 Where will we find those?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
