Take money away from the FBI until they fall in line. Make it hurt.

No. Just like the CIA, they need to be disintegrated.

Abolishing them is too difficult and controversial.

Smarter to do what Obama and the Democrats did: hollow them out and remake them.

I don't think that's practical. We'll wait forever for that, and get nothing accomplished in the meantime.

Cut their budgets dramatically until they fall in line. Not an easy task, but more doable that burning them down.

Stand up a new FBI. All new people. Then dismantle and investigate the old one.

Jordan n Co are sitting there literally paying the FBI's paychecks. You can request docs until you're blue in the face and they will continue to reject those requests.

Is Jordan unaware of who actually has authority to do something about the FBI?

I will get rid of the FBI. It can't be reformed.
REFORM IS NOT POSSIBLE.

50yrs ago, Church Committee had this to say and things have not changed at all. People have to stop talking about reform. The FBI has to go and the DOJ has to be gutted. And that's just the start.

Governmental officials — including those whose principal duty is to enforce the law — have violated or ignored the law over long periods of time and have advocated and defended their right to break the law.

We don't need an FBI. Nation survived just fine without one for a very long time. If we create a new one, the same problems will develop over time. Too much power involved.

I think it’s necessary, but it’s obvious there needs to be more limitations, oversight, and consequences.

Jordan says these words every day and for the last 4 years and hasn’t done anything. One of my favorites but tired of his talk.

Not discrediting this statement but is there any research or account that supports this? Like something that lays out in detail what they did to reshape the FBI

You have to completely abolish them. Genies don't go back into their bottles willingly.

I like everything he says but how much would it really slow em down? The "federal mafia" could slide money from other places to get done what they want to get done. For instance, the funding for much of the defense and intelligence services are unknown, I think it's called "black". Until the heads of the FBI, CIA, and whatever other alphabets are removed, Democrats will find a way to accomplish their goals.

Downvotes for not giving some cliffs.

Hopefully the FBI whistleblower tomorrow morning is finally the one that gets something moving. Apparently he is well respected.

That is the House of Representatives' power. They should use it.

Ear marking the money will not work. They will find a way.


What will work

- pull their funds. And it can not be a little here or there. They will amp up their attacks and go after the members of congress.


- start firing them from the top down
