You do realize for this to be true - the FBI, one of the most conservative organizations in this history of the country, one that’s never been led by a democrat - would have to be secretly as liberal as Twitter’s trust and safety team? Do you understand why people might not find that plausible?
- kodyo 4y agoThe FBI serves the state, and itself. If they need to make friends with a leftist to get something done, why would that stop them? I personally find it hard to believe that Crossfire Hurricane was run by a conservative cabal in the FBI, but maybe you're right. Whoever were doing it were elitist reprobates.

- djur 4y agoThe FBI investigated both Trump and Clinton in 2016. The difference is that they made a big announcement about Clinton immediately prior to the election.
- kodyo 4y agoWas that the only difference? Nothing qualitatively different about the reasons or motivations behind the investigations? Like maybe one was investigated because the candidate was mishandling national secrets in order to avoid freedom of information act requests? I don't know. Seems like there's a difference.
- skinnymuch 4y agoDo you know what “leftist” means? Do you think Twitter the capitalist multi billion dollar company or its top ranking people have ever been leftist? LEO are 90%+ on the right. We are talking about the famously conservative FBI here.
