Defund the FBI.

Republicans are now the defund the police party.

they certainly wouldnt be covered by the search warrant.

Passports belong to the US Government, so they do not need a warrant to take them.

A passport at all times remains the property of the United States and must be returned to the U.S. Government upon demand.

Those of us who know that cities spend half their budget on police are the defund the police party. Our infrastructure is decaying while the people are occupied and contained.

Infrastructure and education should be more funded than police. That is not to attack police, but to support infrastructure and education.

But, many localities would have infrastructure and education funded by county, state, or federal budgets. In that case, cities are doing little beyond police.

At first that seemed to be an argument for saying you are wrong... BUT, then I thought about it. We are creating governments who are solely police advocates. They are not balancing expenses for infrastructure and education with expenses for police, because they are not responsible for anything else. This is disturbing.

First off, you got to be totally gullible or drunk on the Kool Aid to believe anything a pathological liar says

Second, if they believe Trump possessed documents pertinent to national security, files legally he was not suppose to have, and which his staff lied about and tried to hide, confiscating passports was relevant

how are his passports ever relevant to any issue?

Thomas Massie, "These are not auditions for the next Police Academy sequel. This is an actual IRS recruiting program:"

The IRS was edited in, so that calls the whole claim into question. Most IRS agents do not get gun training. And obviously, the idea of recruiting before the funding has come in is just nonsense. The bill just passed, so the funding is not there.

This was posted by someone with no understanding of budgets and funding. LionFish is understandable, but Massie is a Congressman, and should understand these things.

you have no clue what you're talking about.

it wasnt demanded, read the warrant.

There is no need for a warrant in the case of passports, because it already belongs to the US Government. The FBI agents did not need a warrant to drive the US Government cars back to the office after the search. The cars belong to the US Government, and can be driven by agents of the government where ever the government wants them to be.

There is no need for a subpoena or warrant to get passports. There is just the need for a demand. A demand is made by any officer of the US Government, including an FBI agent.

you have no clue what you're talking about.

The IRA was just signed into law, and funding starts at the beginning of the fiscal year, October 1st. Then they start working out how to hire IRS agents, which is a process that takes months. Massie claims to already have photos of them being trained in August?

How are these trainees being paid? Think about it for a second. Would you show up to work, under the promise that in a few months, they will start paying you?
