Episode Details

It never, ever fails, ever. Democrat Deep Staters always, always, always telegraph their deeds, transposing them onto their opposition. It’s been happening since the days of Woodrow Wilson and it continues to this day.

Today’s uniparty Deep State tool is a frequent flier: Dick Durbin, a Democrat senator from Illinois. This Chicago-machine-anointed partisan hack has demonstrated his partisanship almost every second of his career, and his latest remarks don’t deviate from his far-Left fealty.

In response to President-elect Trump’s nomination of Kash Patel to head the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Durbin issued an infantile protest full of name-calling and “it’s not fair” whining, fully unbecoming of someone seated in the most prestigious legislative body on the planet.

“President Biden kept Director Wray in office because the FBI is supposed to be insulated from partisanship. Now, the president-elect wants to replace his own appointee with an unqualified loyalist…The Senate should reject this unprecedented effort to weaponize the FBI for the campaign of retribution that Donald Trump has promised.”

What? There is so much wrong with that statement it’s hard to know where to begin. But let’s take it from the top, shall we?

Durbin’s insistence that Patel shouldn’t be seated because President Biden kept Wray in place is an imbecilic notion. Under Wray, the FBI has been used in numerous ways to affect the political persecution of Americans.

The FBI was found to have labeled parents speaking out at school board meetings as potential “domestic terrorists.” This stemmed from a memo issued by the National School Boards Association (NSBA) in 2021, which served as an attempt to categorize outspoken parents as threats. The FBI response involved investigating these parents over their legitimate concerns about how the school districts were treating and educating their children.

In 2023, a subpoenaed document from the FBI's Richmond Field Office revealed coordination with multiple field offices to produce a memo targeting traditional Catholics as domestic terrorists. This memo was later withdrawn, but the incident exposed the FBI’s religious profiling and political bias.

The FBI under Wray has targeted agents based on their political beliefs, particularly those with conservative views or military backgrounds. This includes claims of harassment and retaliation against whistleblowers who spoke out against political biases within the agency.

The FBI has also been called on the carpet for not only not aggressively pursuing investigations into Hunter Biden, suggesting a protective stance towards political figures aligned with the Democrat party, but also covering up the facts surrounding what was on his laptop, couching it all as an exercise in Russian skullduggery.

Then we have the SWAT raid at former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence in 2022 where we now know the FBI was being used as a political tool against Trump and his 2024 election campaign.

And lastly, for our purposes here, we now know the FBI worked with social media companies to suppress information, particularly around the federal government’s COVID disinformation campaign and the Hunter Biden laptop story before the 2020 election.

By Durbin’s “ethical” standards, Trump should leave Wray in his position, well, just because Biden did, ignoring the fact—the indisputable fact—that under Christopher Wray, the FBI has been corrupted and politicized almost beyond repair.

Not only has Wray failed in his sworn oath to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic,” and “bear true faith and allegiance to the same,” he allowed partisan ideologues to rise to positions of power that allowed them to thwart inve
