Rep. Dan Bishop, R-N.C., said the FBI needs to be decentralized and Republicans need to look at the agency “top to bottom” when they hold the majority in Congress.
“If you look at the [Hillary] Clinton email scandal, the Crossfire Hurricane spying on the presidential campaign, the corrupt FISA [Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act] applications, the missing Woods files, the Bruce Ohr, the Steele dossier, it goes on and on, the latest one being the raid on [former President Donald] Trump’s Florida home being a project of the Washington field office,” Bishop said Saturday during an appearance on Newsmax’s “Wake Up America.”
“There are all sorts of indications that we’ve got to give a hard look at the FBI, but the biggest problem … is that from Robert Mueller’s administration of the FBI, the emphasis has been to make it into an intelligence organization and to favor centralized decision making. I think it’s turned it into a political weapon, and it’s got to stop.”
