After years of Comey, with the phony and dishonest Clinton investigation (and more), running the FBI, its reputation is in Tatters - worst in History!


Or tries to discredit Mueller, who served with distinction as FBI head for longer than any other FBI director, because he doesn't like the way his investigation is going?

If the President was TRULY pro-law enforcement, he'd be saying, "I totally support Mueller, the FBI, and the Department of Justice in their investigation into foreign government interference in our elections. We MUST get to the truth, regardless of where the chips fall."

By the way, I come from a family with a long law enforcement history. I have two cousins who are police officers. I also had two uncles who were police officers, and a third who actually was an FBI agent. My husband's grandfather was in the secret service. My father, my husband, and my father in law all served in the military (husband and father in law were career military).

So, I know what it means to have respect for law enforcement. Branding the entire FBI as corrupt with one fell swoop is not respect for law enforcement.

Weeding out the bad apples is pro law enforcement.
Identifying problems and taking action to correct them is important too. We all have seen situations where changes in personal and policy can improved. Even Mueller made changes but his error was hiding it. Cover-ups are a particular concern when there is no outside agency looking into or doing oversight on law enforcement.

This is very ironic for you to claim since convicting cops who murder and advocating reforms of police department training and oversight seems to be regarded as anti-law enforcement by your crowd.

A.G. Sessions also in attendance.


President Trump will visit the FBI National Academy on Friday amid heightened tensions with the bureau whose reputation he recently described as "in tatters," and its standing as the "worst in history."


President Trump to visit FBI National Academy following comments that bureau is in 'tatters' - ABC News

He should tell them all their bosses are fired for colluding with the Dems & Russians to prevent his election.

Liberal or communist reforms are anti-law enforcement.
