How long has the Left controlled the FBI? Let's start looking for evidence.

I may overstate the case as I wrote it in the title, but not by much.

First off, this is an introduction to a series of posts; I started digging into this, and there is a lot of info to deal with, so there will be follow up posts in specific areas.

It doesn't take much to subvert an organization...not everybody has to be in the game!

In the corruption/collusion case that we are looking at right now, it's obvious that the Counter-Intelligence chain is compromised, and the top tier of the FBI has aligned itself with the Clinton ( and most likely Obama) wing of the Deep State.

*The Counter-Intelligence function (and it's similes in other organizations) isone of those areas that a subverisve group should target, because control of that function gives you control over the entire organization.

I'll put it like this for a real world comparison...if HR in a company is polluted with SJWs, most employees hired after that evolution will be SJW approved...and going by Marvel and the NFL, that business is sure to start losing money ;>

The genisis for this post came from a hat tip from @nxtblg

Former FBI Agent Jonathan Gilliam: Bureau’s Top Brass Climb Ladder by Ideology, Not Merit

“Go in and think like a liberal” was the advice two FBI agents gave Jonathan Gilliam prior to his taking an FBI entrance exam.
“The people who are like-minded, the people that get along are going to be the ones that stay there,” added Gilliam. “They’re not going to recruit people who don’t do what they do, who don’t think like they do.”

The “deep state” network of leftists, said Gilliam, extends across various federal bureaucracies. He advised President Donald Trump to cleanse federal bureaucracies of politically corrupt leftists.

subversion

I've talked about subversion in the Information War mindframe before. Subversion is about more than direct power.

Institutional Control - How else do you get the power to indoctrinate without controlling those institutions that provide information? Besides the power that institutions can have to coerce individual actions, a threat of institutional control is the ability of some institutions (education, news media, entertainment media, and academia) to disseminate information and to indoctrinate. #fakenews that I create as Joe Blogger has no comparison in power to that #fakenews issued by CBS. Finally, institutions grant the appearance of authority to information; if an agency is responsible for the custody or generation of information, the assumption is that the information is correct.

And yet, power itself work, too ;>

Ideological alignment allows otherwise disconnected people across federal bureaucracies to cooperate absent conspiracy, said Gilliam, using terrorist networks as an illustration of this phenomenon.

“You know how terrorist cells work. They have a financial group that raises money, you have planners, you have people who build the bombs, and you have people that carry the operation out,” said Gilliam. “They may never meet those people, but they belong to the same ideology.”

“These behaviors are not something that is just simply at the FBI,” concluded Gilliam. This is a problem across the board.”

What is the Deep State made of?
I still don't have enough facts to give you a percentage of who makes up what.

My best guesses are

  • Leftists
  • Muslim Brotherhood
  • Remember the leftist/Muslim alliance
  • The mafia
  • Globalists
  • Cartels?

Timeline

I'll adjust this timeline as I dig further into these questions...the point here is to look at when and where the FBI started acting against the interest of American liberty. So, I'll try to look at those points in terms of who benefiots, and who in the FBI was related to whatever outside force that would benfit from that action.

It should be noted that when Gorelick penned the aforementioned memo, President Clinton was extremely worried about ongoing FBI and CIA investigations into illegal Chinese contributions that had been made to his presidential campaign

This is not a recent evolution, but it might have increased in influence in the last 8 years

globalists?

You can call them deep state. You can call them globalists. I often call them communists,” said Gilliam of left-wing federal bureaucrat careerists.

All the events you state are during democratic presidencies, is the FBI thereby generally controlled by them during then? It's pretty crazy the things they have done. Thanks for the share.

There is stuff that I haven't added to the timeline yet that happened under Bush, too. But so far it's looking like bad thing really started happening under the Clintons

That's easy, day one.

I've done a lot of research on Hoover. No evidence he was either gay or a crossdresser.

otoh, the communists did make one of their "55 goals" to destroy him...and another? to destroy the FBI

just a couple of fellas who like wearing matching suits is all!

there is a Hoover post in the future; he was a relentless anti-communist, definitely not a fanuch lol. he was neither a saint nor a devil, but he has been sainted and demonized fer sure

suits didnt have a lot of variety back then, and white suits were nowhere near out of fashion

It's been going on for a long time, to be sure. I think it started with the revelations about COINTELPRO spilling out, which had the effect of making the FBI appear to be anti-left.

Once they were put on the defensive tat way, rightly or wrongly (I think wrongly), they slithered over into becoming pro-liberal.

Hoover dies in the middle of the Watergate nonsense, or pretty close to it. Everybody was covering their asses LOL.

I'd put it at the beginning at the Church Committee ( which cought out COINTELPRO and the CIA shenanigans at the same time)... a lot of the old guard were put out to pasture

The FBI was definitely anti-leftist, and loud about it up until then. I'll add more to this in the next install

And on the defensive.

Okay. Going into this I pegged them as anti-extremist but I'll see what you say.

they were anti-extremist (the first COINTELPRO kill was of a young woman that was an accomplice to a Klan bomber), but Hoover started out hunting Reds, and he hated them.

You could say with some accuracy that the FBI was a reflection of Hoover until his death....middle class oriented and proper. Hoover was an excellent burrocrat even past the blackmail files, and an excellent media manipulator. He was so tight assed about the appearance of the Bureau that (IIRC) he fired a guy for having a sweaty handshake! Either that, or something similarly outrageous

To your point...

A disease afflicts America today-the disease of extremism. We see extremism of several varieties: left wing extremism (Old Left and New Left); right wing extremism (Minutemen); black extremism(Black Panther Party); white extremism (Ku Klux Klan and antiNegro hate groups)." The mass media each day is filled with charges and countercharges, with accusations and counteraccusations, with one group bitterly assailing and denouncing another group. All too frequently these verbal assaults are reinforced with violent acts: murder,assault, arson, bombings.

Extremism poses a dangerous threat to the integrity of democratic institutions. Every American should be concerned. When individuals or organizations take the law into their own hands, they render a grave disservice to the concepts of civility and legality which hold our society together...

I doubt he wrote that himself, but he did put those thoughts in his own name
