An FBI whistleblower who got suspended got support from former agents confirming the bureau's politicized bias. In particular, they investigated suspects connected to the Capitol Incident probe on January 6, in which the Democrats are intent on painting Donald Trump and his supporters.

Considerable Support for FBI Whistleblower

For suspended whistleblower Steve Friend, who alleged political bias at the organization dealing with January 6, 2021, Capitol breach probe, thirty former Federal agents have already sent supportive comments, reported The Epoch Times.

A retired deputy assistant director and ex-SWAT team members are some ex-agents who've already voiced support for Friend.

In a publicly disclosed public statement on September 26, the former officer contended that the agency had been handling a few significant persons of interest in the Jan 6 probe.

He used this example of a SWAT team getting engaged to arrest just a lesser charge, which he regarded as "unnecessary."

Using "anomalous" techniques to manage the Capitol investigations, the FBI ended up breaking the Justice Department's guidelines for its domestic inquiry (pdf), as shown by this disgruntled officer.

He contended that deferring intervention to the FBI's Jan 6 Task Force had diminished the significance of field offices and field agents in the inquests that did take place on January 6, 2021.

Friend added that he had been established as the Case Agent in continuing criminal cases that included Jan 6 subjects.

In addition, it is claimed that the agency has undermined investigations into child sexual abuse and that it should be politically neutral in finding domestic terrorists who are Americans.

According to his attorney, the Federal Bureau of Investigation still employs him but with no pay.

Former FBI Agents' Statements

Ernie Tibaldi, a retired agent, told the New York Post that the US government's ruling party shouldn't use the agency as politicized bias.

Tibaldi expressed that politics should be taken out of the agency once and for all. It should be the bureau has allowed itself to become the hitman of the administration, and it goes after those dissenting against it. It should be pristine from influence to do its job correctly.

Ex-SWAT team members confirmed with Friend's statements that the Federal Bureau of Investigation had been using unnecessary force while arresting suspects accused of felony crimes.

Another retired special agent, Agent David Baldovin, who spent two dozen years in SWAT, says, "The existing use, or the misuse, of SWAT teams has been scandalous."

Friend has been applauded for having the guts to repudiate the current group of agency bureaucrats and tyrants. One more former SWAT team member was asserted to have played a role in a number of operations that were confined to "serious felonies."

Friend's security clearance has been canceled when an investigation is undertaken since he has refused to participate in up-and-coming operations involving the Jan 6 probe. Likewise, his credentials, weapon, and qualifications were all stripped away.

Former agents supported Friend, an FBI whistleblower, as they accused the bureau of excess politicized bias, which was used to harass suspects during the Capitol incident.
