Can't you say that about anything? The IRS, DOJ, NSA, Supreme Court. You can claim they were all created by whatever party was in majority power, to go after their political opponents. And it often is politically advantageous to claim BS like that.
Unless you're making the extreme point that democratic republics are intractable, because individual government employees will necessarily bend the rules to favor their own party, then you're not making any point at all.
