Mike Pence Denounces Calls to Defund the FBI

Former Vice President Mike Pence delivered an establishment republican party speech at Saint Anselm College in Manchester, NH, today. During his prepared remarks, Pence denounced the effort of some people in the republican party who call for defunding the FBI.

According to Pence he was, “deeply troubled” by the behavior of the justice department and the FBI during their raid on President Trump’s residence at Mar-a-Lago. Pence continued by saying the FBI “rank and file” should not be attacked or disparaged for the political agenda exhibited by the organization they represent. It’s a weird statement when you think about it in context.

The FBI as an institution doesn’t do anything; it is the men and women within the institution that take actions based on corrupt political intent. The only way to address the behavior of the FBI is to do exactly the opposite of what Pence is saying. Institutions are made up of people. The rank and file within that corrupt system are the people carrying out the corrupt endeavors. The audio is a little poor, but here is the segment, WATCH:
