Ah, yes, the party of "Law and order"
- But this law org is arresting their voter base..
Why do republicans hate America?
- They don't hate it, they're trying to take it over.
  
  They just hate that it's not so easy to do that as is.
  
  Nah they hate it. They hate diversity (people not like them), they hate freedom (to be gay), they hate everything America actually is and love the false memory of what they've been told America was.
  
  Defunding the FBI is just pure hate and spite. It's not part of a plan.
Then I guess the #GOP is shutting the government down again.

Didn't work out great for them the last times.
House Freedom Caucus is also demanding an end to 'woke policies'...

Do they know that phrase is embarrassing? It's unprofessionally vague.
Wait there is public support to keep FBI funded?

I guess somebody got to entrap people with metal disability on bogus terrorist charges, plan for governor kidnappings and storming of the Parliament buildings...
- ...what? Metal disability? And we don't even have a parliament.
  
  This is what they are using your tax money on: https://theintercept.com/2023/07/31/fbi-isis-sting-mentally-ill-teen/
Wow. I'm all about abolishing the prison industrial complex, but I didn't anticipate that I'd be on the same side as the lunatic coup plotting fringe.
Rename the FBI and start another department called FBI and defund that
