Blackburn: An Internal “Cabal” Has Politicized The FBI

“It wasn’t a focused raid, if you will. What we do the know is that the Tennesseans I’m talking to say if they can do this to President Trump, they can do it to me.

“We have seen the FBI become politicized – a certain group – a certain cabal in the FBI. We have wonderful men and women who are working in that agency. We have wonderful individuals that have retired out. We have heard from some of the whistleblowers.

“The work that Sen. Grassley is continuing to do is going to be very important to make certain that the FBI is returned. That the leadership at the FBI is returned to being a non-political agency.” – Sen. Marsha Blackburn, today on Fox News.

The leadership of the FBI was appointed by Trump, something that Blackburn conveniently failed to mention and that Fox host Maria Bartiromo failed to remind her.
