Takeaways
  • The Biden administration's cozying up to Iran undermines America's pro-Israel position and national security.
  • Open border policies put the American people at risk and allow known or suspected terrorists to enter the United States.
  • The FBI has experienced politicization, particularly in upper-level management, which has eroded trust and compromised the agency's mission.
  • Structural changes, including separating the counterintelligence and criminal divisions, may be necessary to address the issues within the FBI.
  • Personal experiences of former FBI agents highlight the challenges and concerns within the agency. The FBI's experiences and operations can vary under different administrations.
  • The politicization of the FBI exists regardless of the president in office.
  • The lack of response to the January 6th events and losing an FBI agent raises concerns about priorities and support.
  • The focus on diversity should not overshadow the primary mission of putting bad people behind bars.
