On Thursday evening, leading 2024 Republican candidate and 45th President Donald Trump took to Twitter to comment on the testimony of three FBI whistleblowers before the Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government.
As previously reported by the DC Enquirer, the three whistleblowers, Steve Friend, Garret O'Boyle, and Marcus Allen, came before Congress to explain how the bureau retaliated against them after they were willing to blow the whistle on the law enforcement agency's behavior.
The retaliation was so drastic that O'Boyle explained, "In weaponized fashion, the FBI allowed me to accept orders to a new position halfway across the country. They allowed us to sell my family’s home...They ordered me to report to the new unit when our youngest daughter was only two weeks old. Then, on my first day on the new assignment, they suspended me; rendering my family homeless and refused to release our household goods, including our clothes, for weeks."
"The FBI will crush you," O'Boyle said at the conclusion of the hearing. "This government will crush you and your family if you try to expose the truth about things they are doing that are wrong."
"We are all examples of that," he added, referencing the other whistleblowers that sat beside him.
In response to this harrowing testimony, President Trump took to Truth Social to express his concern and call for action from lawmakers.
"Very sad watching what took place today in Congress regarding Whistleblowers and the FBI," the leading Republican candidate wrote. "There has never been a time like this in our Country, the complete weaponization of Justice."
"I am a victim also, but the real victim is the United States of America," Trump explained. "Congress must use its purse strings to straighten it out, before it is too late! MAGA 2024."
With the recent publication of the Durham report earlier this week, it is becoming increasingly clear that the FBI is utilizing its power to push political preferences and silence voices willing to speak up.
"ELECTION INTERFERENCE, THROUGH THE USE OF THE CORRUPT FBI & DOJ, IS THE 2024 PLAYBOOK FOR THE RADICAL LEFT DEMOCRATS, RINOS, AND OTHER LUNATICS AMONG US," Trump wrote on Friday. "HOPEFULLY JIM JORDAN, AND OUR MANY REPUBLICAN CONGRESSIONAL PATRIOTS, WILL STOP THEM COLD. THE FUTURE OF OUR COUNTRY IS COUNTING ON IT. ALL HONEST FBI AGENTS AND REPRESENTATIVES MUST STEP FORWARD, NOW. IT IS YOUR TIME!!!"
Congress should take action and with lawmakers like Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) calling for the FBI to be defunded and decentralized, as previously reported by the DC Enquirer, Americans can only hope that actual reform will come to the bureaucracy.
