        Some FBI agents want to uphold the law regardless of political party affiliation. Republicans, members of the party that’s currently committing most of the crimes, don’t like this.

            Yeah, see, this is what I’m talking about. You have no data necessary to make that statement

            Statements made:

            In fact we’re literally in the comment section for an article about the agency behaving exactly the opposite!!!

            This article is about Republican officials threatening FBI agents to prevent them being investigated, and attempting to corrupt and politicize the organization by placing cronies in charge. I don’t see any claims made about actual existing bias there, but rather perceived bias from Republicans. In fact it points out that the prosecutions of the Trump administration were performed by Trump appointees, which seems to imply the opposite of what you claim regarding bias. I’m not saying it doesn’t exist but it’s not in this article.

            As for weaponizing the FBI against their political rivals, the GOP is super into that. They publicly announced their intention to do so well in advance.

            Edit: Tsk, tsk, @AngrilyEatingMuffins. You’ve downvoted a good faith answer with citations, I guess you don’t like being corrected.

      Actually, they mainly recruit from the GOP membership. So its a fair bet they would get away with it.
