a hearing in the subcommittee on the weaponization of the federal government to investigate abuses by the fbi. the whistleblowers testifying at the hearing to suspended fbi agents and one former agent all claim the fbi retaliated on them for speaking out on the practices at the bureau . now, if i may, maybe just as a reminder, a couple of stories on those practices. in 2020 one , the fbi counterterror division raided the home of a red cross volunteer named joseph bolaños . bolaños is sixty nine years old, anonymous hipster s claimed bolaños was at the capitol on january 6th. there s no evidence, though, that bluenose was there, much less that he did anything violent, regardless of the fbi. regardless, they showed up at bolaños house. they were armed. they seized his electronics, and the raid was so traumatizing. the bolano suffered two strokes. then there were the pro-life raids on christians. mark and paul von again. no evidence that either of these men were threats
the government, will crush you and your family if you try to expose the truth about their wrongdoing. now, make no mistake, there is serious misconduct going on at this fbi. some now believe that america is once premier. law enforcement agency is now beyond repair, especially the blatantly partisan washington field office, which seemingly operates as an arm of the democratic party. so let us be clear . this isn t just about the bureau s anti trump witch called crossfire hurricane, which we have gone into great detail this week. the political rot extends far beyond the former president of the united states . you have pro-abortion activists, traditional catholics, people, moms and dads who merely attend trump rally, even angry parents. how dare they speak out about age appropriate material being taught their kids or crt? how about we stick to reading, writing, math , science, computers? but if they speak out at a school board meeting, guess what? speak out against critical
