According to a recent report, becoming an FBI agent is the perfect way to act like a total ass without having to be held accountable. It’s almost as good as being the crack-smoking son of a geriatric authoritarian president!

Just the News reported:

Scores of FBI employees have been caught over the last five years engaging in unethical and illegal conduct such as driving drunk, stealing property, assaulting a child, mishandling classified documents, and losing their service weapons — but they often escaped being fired, according to internal disciplinary files provided to Just The News.

The report details a series of shady behaviors on the part of various FBI agents that received little to no punishment. “One agent left a highly lethal M4 carbine unsecured in his government car during a Starbucks run and had the weapon stolen, but even he received only a two-week suspension despite violating the bureau’s protocols for weapons storage, the records show,” according to the report.

The report also notes that “sexual misconduct was also rampant” which included “inappropriate affairs with felons in prison, confidential sources and subordinate employees.”

In fact, these offenses were so numerous that the Bureau “suspended distributing them for seven months in 2021-2022” because of concerns that the “employees harmed by misconduct” might be shamed.

Just the News also noted that there were at least 23 instances in which agents and staff were driving under the influence. Only five of these resulted in termination. Others were suspended or forced to retire.

In another alarming development, at least three dozen agents reported losing their guns, having them stolen, or handling them unsafely, “including one agent who accidentally discharged his weapon and shot a hole through the floor of his hotel room.”

Steve Friend, a former agent and a whistleblower, leaked the FBI reports to Just the News. He said the abundance of cases signified a “cultural problem” within the Bureau.

“There’s definitely a sense of entitlement that has seeped into the agency, and too many people are just content to have a gold badge and gun on their hip and not actually do the work that’s required,” Friend said. “They’re sitting on the shoulders of giants, people that investigated Bonnie and Clyde, Al Capone, terrorist networks, organized crime, and they need to uphold that reputation as opposed to just living on the exhaust fumes.”

In one highly disturbing case, an agent admitted to having molested his daughter and granddaughter for years. Another agent acted “as an agent of a foreign government.” One stole drug evidence to give to a heroin addict. Yet another agent brandished their firearm on a civilian during a road rage incident. “The female bystander in question was thrown up ‘against a concrete lane divider, causing temporary loss of consciousness and large contusion,’” according to Just the News.

This isn’t all, folks.

Another report discussed an employee who shot and killed his neighbor’s dog and even one who was driving with his blood alcohol level three times over the legal limit. He killed an 18-year-old. “Yet not all of these subjects were said to have served prison time, and some even kept their jobs,” the report noted.

In one instance, a supervisory employee “hit his minor child.” He was only caught when the school “noticed bruises and contacted Child Protective Services.” The Bureau found out that the child had “been coached to minimize what happened.” This individual kept his job after taking parenting classes and getting a 40-day suspension for “Assault and Battery.”

I’ll give you just one more example – but I assure you, there are plenty more.

An FBI agent faced a temporary protective order after sending “a threatening and vile email to his girlfriend’s ex-husband.” The agent threatened to shoot a process server who was trying to serve the subpoena. The agent’s punishment? A 25-day suspension.

These are quite a few examples of corruption in the FBI. But I assure you, this only scratches the surface. We have already seen that much of the Bureau has been politicized. Agents have used their power to target folks based on politics. I have written about this previously. If the agency’s leadership is willing to allow their agents to get away with clear acts of misconduct, it stands to reason that these folks won’t hesitate to use their authority in a political manner with impunity. At this point, something needs to be done. A governmental entity with this level of malfeasance should not be allowed to exist, plain and simple.
