On November 4, 2022, the Republican staff of the House Judiciary Committee published a report based primarily on whistleblower testimony, describing how the FBI and the Justice Department have become politically weaponized against conservatives.  I strongly urge every  AT reader to download the report and spend 30 to 60 minutes reading the first 50 pages.  Here are a few of the salient points.

The Washington Field Office is manipulating its case filing system to feign a nationwide rise in domestic terrorism.

The geography of where a crime is committed ordinarily determines who will open an FBI file.  For example, if a crime is committed in Dallas, the FBI’s Dallas Field Office will open the file and conduct the primary investigation.  However, this is not the case with the January 6 arrestees.  Under orders from Director Wray, files have been opened in the geography where the defendant resides, but the Washington Field Office (WFO) is in charge of the investigation.  This gives the false impression that domestic violence extremism (DVE) cases are much more geographically spread around the country than they actually are.

The FBI downplayed and sought to reduce the spread of the serious allegations of wrongdoing leveled against Hunter Biden

Despite having had possession of Hunter Biden’s laptop for several years and a report released by Senators Ron Johnson and Chuck Grassley in September 2020 detailing “potential criminal activity relating to transactions among and between Hunter Biden, his family, and his associates with Ukrainian, Russian, Kazakh, and Chinese nationals,” the FBI has shown no interest in going after him.  Contrast the kid glove treatment that Hunter Biden has received with the super-aggressive treatment meted out by the FBI when going after conservatives.

There is also evidence that the FBI sought to limit negative stories about Hunter Biden on social media.  Mark Zuckerberg has stated that FBI agents visited Facebook HQ before the 2020 election and said they believed that many of the stories about Hunter Biden were “Russian disinformation.”

Attorney General Garland issued a memorandum that inserted federal law enforcement into local school board meetings.

“On September 29, 2021, the National School Board Association (NSBA) sent a letter to President Biden equating concerned parents voicing their opinion at school board meetings with domestic terrorists and urging the Biden Administration to exercise its authorities under the Patriot Act.  On October 4, 2021, just five days after the NSBA letter, Attorney General Garland issued a memorandum that directed the FBI and U.S. Attorneys’ Offices to address a purported ‘disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence’ at school board meetings.”

In one investigation, an FBI Field Office interviewed a mom for allegedly telling a local school board, “We are coming for you” because she “is a gun owner.”

In another case, an FBI Field Office opened an investigation into a dad opposed to mask mandates.
