Many Americans view the FBI with suspicion, not respect, these days.
After all, its agents and officials were integral to the now-debunked Russiagate collusion conspiracy that the bureau created, along with Democrats, against President Trump.
Then, of course, there was the recent FBI raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, in which agents purportedly searched for government documents that Trump already had promised they could have if they asked.
But it gets worse.
A report in the Washington Times charges that FBI whistleblowers now have accused managers in multiple field offices of corruption, cover-ups and retaliation.
«Current and former FBI leaders at the bureau’s offices in Miami, Salt Lake City, Buffalo, New York, and Newark, New Jersey, are facing whistleblower complaints,» the report said.
Claims are that the supervisors coerced agents to sign false documents, fabricated terrorism claims to pump up their own performance stats, sexually harassed a female agent, engaged in sex with a subordinate in a government vehicle, and crashed the vehicle, and more.
One female agent who charged that FBI Director Christopher Wray and others ignored her claims of sexual harassment, said the bureau actually works under a «mob-like mentality.»
The report quoted the agent, not identified, who said in a letter to Rep.
