FBI Whistleblowers Battle Against the Agency and Congressional Democrats
Congressional Democrats are trying to silence whistleblowers amidst partisan politics
Congressional Democrats have come under fire for their alleged attempts to undermine FBI whistleblowers, shielding the agency from accountability for its purported abuses.
Yesterday, Mary wrote about Rep. Linda Sanchez (D-Calif.) trying to discredit FBI whistleblower Marcus Allen for retweeting a post that suggested: “Nancy Pelosi staged January 6.” However, it wasn’t his account or his tweet. This incident clearly illustrates the dismissive and hostile treatment of FBI whistleblowers from Congressional Democrats, as evidenced during the recent House Weaponization of the Federal Government Subcommittee hearing.
Rep. Stacey Plaskett (D-Virgin Islands), the ranking Democrat, made the unfounded claim that Republicans had brought in former agents who had lost their security clearances due to being a threat to national security. These agents, she argued, were prioritizing their partisan agenda over their sworn duty to serve the country and protect its national security.

The FBI has retaliated against brave whistleblowers for exposing the abuses they've seen at the FBI.
There's no doubt that retaliation, and Democrat attacks on their character, will chill future whistleblowers. pic.twitter.com/ApAPdrnF3z

FBI Special Agent Garret O’Boyle, a veteran of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, was suspended after filing a complaint alleging that the FBI was exaggerating the threat of domestic terrorism. O’Boyle testified that the FBI management “creates an Orwellian atmosphere that silences opposition and discussion.” Later O’Boyle also testified that, “The FBI will crush you. This government will crush you, and your family, if you dare to expose the truth about their wrongdoings. We stand here as living proof of that.” Wow. His statement should send shivers down the spine of every freedom-loving individual. If such a grim warning doesn’t instill a sense of absolute terror in you, then perhaps, nothing will.
FBI Special Agent Garret O'Boyle was transferred across the country only to be suspended on his first day.

This controversy has raised serious concerns about the FBI’s practices and its treatment of whistleblowers, highlighting the need for transparency and accountability in our federal agencies.
The FBI distributed a memo titled “Domestic Terrorism Symbols Guide” that said support for the Second Amendment and displaying the Betsy Ross flag are indications of violent extremists.

Garret O’Boyle followed the law when he bravely blew the whistle on FBI abuses.
Democrats attack him for it.
Disgusting. https://t.co/Ah3QlZ2s2z

1) Jordan on Fox on FBI weaponization: We now know that government agencies have been turned on the American people..We know that pro-lifers praying at clinics have been targeted. We know that Catholics simply going to church, going to mass, have been targeted

The 1960s in reverse. Now that Democrats are Big Brother they like it that way.
Big Brother my ass: if it isn’t plain to everyone we are facing fascists, the fascists will win.
The Democrats on this committee were engaged in public stonewalling of the right to know what the FBI was doing on and before 1.6.21 at and outside the Capitol
How about reparations for whistleblowers? How would the average congressman feel if his bribes, freebie luxury travel, and under the table sweetheart deals were cut off for a year?
Back in the 1980s and 1990s, Republicans treated whistleblowers from the DOE (esp. from the Hanfford, Washington reactor site) just as viciously. I was involved personally in preparing legal briefs for those individuals, and lost my career as a result. Therefore, I salute the brave FBI whistleblowers, but I’m not deceived by the Repubs’ halo-polishing.
The collusion of Agency, Democrats, and the mainstream media as the Fourth Leg of a Fascist State.
