How can we have faith in our institutions when the leadership is more than willing to lie and bend rules to push a political agenda? We know FBI agents lied on FISA warrants to spy on Trump’s political campaign. We know 51 former high ranking Intelligence individuals lied to the American people about Hunter’s lap top. Now it seems the IRS is screwing around with the investigation of Hunter Biden. I remember the IRS slow walking or denying Tea Party people their tax status to organize.

MSgt Steve Sweeney No. A violation of the First Amendment. Past and future donors is not the federal government's business.
I'm sure you'd gladly give the IRS every bit of information about your life in all its radiant plumage. Because I'm sure your life is an open book and you'll gladly tell Big Brother all.

MSgt Steve Sweeney Ah, the old 'when did you stop beating your wife' question.
I had a security clearance for 37 years. 'Nuff said.

MSgt Steve Sweeney You assume much and know very little. I don't hate our government, I hate how it's been perverted by quite a few administrations especially the current one.

For those that push the "opinion" rhetoric...
"The conduct in 2016 and 2017 that Special Counsel Durham examined was the reason that current FBI leadership already implemented dozens of corrective actions, which have now been in place for some time. Had those reforms been in place in 2016, the missteps identified in the report could have been prevented," the FBI said.
"This report reinforces the importance of ensuring the FBI continues to do its work with the rigor, objectivity, and professionalism the American people deserve and rightly expect," it added.
Sounds to me like it was legitimate criticism made of the FBI, to which the FBI confirmed and claimed to have addressed since. I don't see why some are so ready to just dismiss this as "opinion". While I would prefer that someone be held accountable, according to the FBI, that may have already happened. Comey is out, Strzok, Page... Possibly others. Some may have been reassigned. Am I satisfied? Not really, but no one can make the claim Trump wasn't treat unfairly here and that the FBI discredited themselves through these confirmed findings.
But there's your DNC leadership... doing whatever it takes, moral/ethical or not, to take the other side down. It was apparent when they saw fit to change the rules to prevent Sanders from overtaking Clinton, and Clinton worked hard against Trump as well in the same unethical manner through the willful creation of false accusations, using apolitical (possibly willing, maybe just incompetent) government resources to participate in the scheme.
