GAETZ OF HELL! Florida Rep. Calls for Defunding of FBI, Indictment of Agents Following Durham Report

posted by Hannity Staff - 5.16.23

Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz (R) is fired up in the wake of the Durham Report which found that U.S. intelligence agencies had no substantial evidence when they opened the Trump-Russia probe; he says it’s an “absolutely DAMNING treatise on the weaponization of the FBI against President Trump.”

During a recent interview, Gaetz accused the FBI of being the “enforcement wing” of the Democratic Party.

“I think we have to deauthorize, defang and defund many of these authorities and entities and different task forces that actually converted the just and righteous act of protecting our country with the desire to have a particular political candidate win or lose,” the lawmaker said.

From The New York Post:

“If that had been a Republican operation — an operation to help a Republican candidate — it wouldn’t have ended in a report. It would have ended with real significant indictments,” the congressman added.

Gaetz said Durham’s review should result in “firings” and a bipartisan reform of the FBI.

“And I think we should claw back the $325 million that Nancy Pelosi had gifted for the new FBI headquarters in the DC area,” he added.

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) agreed with Gaetz that the FBI should have its funding slashed and claimed in a Fox News interview that there was a “double standard” for Republicans and Democrats.

Jordan, who chairs the House Judiciary Committee, said Monday he has invited Durham to testify before his panel next week to further discuss his findings.
