The repubs are freaking out over the fact more IRS agents got hired.
can you imagine what the Repubs would say.
“ they hired more FBI agents so they can come after you just like they came after trump.” Or “ The new FBI agents will arrest you just for waving a flag”

I say hire more FBI agents!

Sec. Napolitano warned us...and got criticized by the GOP to the point that her report was withdrawn.

[link:https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2012/8/6/1117242/-Remember-the-DHS-Right-Wing-Extremist-Report|]

House Minority Leader John Boehner called the report "Offensive and Unacceptable" and demanded an "explanation for why she has abandoned using the term ‘terrorist’ to describe those, such as al Qaeda, who are plotting overseas to kill innocent Americans, while her own Department is using the same term to describe American citizens who disagree with the direction Washington Democrats are taking our nation."


that was in 2009.

Or even earlier--these kooks have been around a long time.

Decades ago, it was FBI Director Robert Mueller who restructured the FBI from case file criminal investigating to the mission of Threat Assessment that it now works on day and night.

The FBI employes 35,000 people, with 13,948 special agents as of May 2.

That's how stupid he is. FBI agents carry pistols even when they are sitting at a desk doing paperwork. They regularly get qualified at a pistol range. The stupidity of MAGATs never ceases to amaze me.

He doesn't care. These people are disposable as far as he's concerned.

The Big Orange Pig could ratchet this back, but he keeps throwing gas on the fire. He loves having these people fight and die for him.

These people were detestable miscreants before Trump came along, but he organized them into his own army of willing dupes, ready, willing, and able to march to his orders.

I doubt there has been a more dangerous and detestable man in American history as Donald Trump.

Justice matters.

their actions are stupid. More of these "warriors" should be as suicidal as this one, and be erased rather than clog the courts and serve the prison industrial complex. I feel much better now, thank you.
