The FBI has a long and unrelenting history of being corrupt. Just look back to the days of J. Edgar Hoover. In the modern era, nothing has changed except that it has gotten far worse. Look at Comey, McCabe, Strzok and lover Lisa Page. Check out the brilliantly written but damning I.G. Reports. See what they were willing to do in order to get Crooked Hillary Clinton elected (they failed), and got caught! They spied on my campaign, pushed the FAKE Dossier, and illegally used the FISA Court…..
Trump Calls Out FBI Corruption
How They Responded: "Trump's Conspiracy Theories"
Politico"Donald Trump has been wrong about nearly everything when it comes to the FBI, wrong about its political nature, wrong about its corruption, wrong about its leadership"
NBC News"Mueller's Russia probe wasn't launched because of Carter Page, and the dossier compiled by an ex-spy was only part of the evidence cited to get a warrant."
NPR"The FBI and DOJ officials did not 'abuse' the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) process, omit material facts, or subvert this vital tool to spy on the Trump campaign."
The Russia Probe Was Built On Nothing
Trump said the FBI opened its investigation of his campaign without a genuine basis and kept it alive on evidence it knew was unverified. The Justice Department's own Durham Report and Inspector General review later confirmed exactly that, the same foundation that produced the Russia-collusion narrative.

The discredited Steele dossier did not just contaminate the FISA warrants against Carter Page. In 2025, the CIA's own career analysts and newly declassified intelligence records confirmed it was forced into the January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment over the explicit objections of the agency's senior Russia experts, who warned it would destroy the credibility of the entire paper.
What The Official Records Show:

- Despite public claims that the dossier "was not in any way" part of the ICA, the official record shows it was referenced in the assessment after being slotted into an annex. Source: ODNI
- The CIA's 2025 Tradecraft Review found the assessment was rushed through in under seven days under "a highly compressed production timeline, stringent compartmentation, and excessive involvement of agency heads." Source: CIA

The CIA's career Directorate of Analysis documented procedural anomalies that "undermined the credibility" of the assessment, including the inclusion of the Steele dossier over senior analysts' formal objections.

The bias was not confined to one investigation. From the surveillance of the 2016 campaign to the 2022 Mar-a-Lago raid, the same pattern recurred: tactics designed to manufacture an impression the underlying facts did not support.

The Guardian"The Durham report was sharply critical of how the FBI decided to open the counterintelligence investigation into Trump, known as 'Crossfire Hurricane', accusing top officials at the bureau of relying on raw and uncorroborated information to continue the inquiry."
Washington Examiner"The Durham report is damning evidence of the rot in our government. The FBI's investigation into Trump's campaign was based on flimsy evidence and political bias rather than legitimate national security concerns."
House Judiciary Committee"Horowitz's report revealed that the FBI had abused the FISA process to illegally surveil Page. The report also outlined 17 significant 'errors or omissions' and 51 'incorrect or unsupported factual assertions' in the FBI's application to conduct warrantless surveillance."
What Has Surfaced Since Trump Returned
Since January 2025, the Justice Department and FBI have moved on the accountability Trump demanded for years. These are the official actions on the record.

The Durham Report's findings confirm Trump's warnings about FBI corruption and political bias. The investigation reveals that the FBI rushed into the Russia probe without proper evidence, ignored exculpatory information, and treated the Trump campaign differently from the Clinton campaign. This systematic misconduct demonstrates why Trump's concerns about FBI corruption were not just political rhetoric, but based on real and documented problems within the agency.
Perhaps most damning is the revelation that the FBI failed to consult its own Russia experts, who would have said there was no evidence of conspiracy. Instead, the agency pursued an investigation based on unverified information and continued to use the discredited Steele dossier in FISA applications. This pattern of confirmation bias and political targeting validates Trump's claims about FBI corruption and the need for reform.
The Mar-a-Lago raid in August 2022 further demonstrates the FBI's problematic approach. The agency seized 33 boxes of documents, later claiming to have found 184 documents with classification markings. However, timeline discrepancies in the document inventory raise serious questions about when certain classified materials were actually found, suggesting possible manipulation of evidence to support the investigation. This incident, combined with the Durham Report's findings, paints a picture of an agency willing to bend or break rules to target political opponents.
Recent revelations about FBI Director James Comey allegedly ordering an "off-the-books" operation using female undercover agents to infiltrate Trump's 2016 campaign add another layer to this pattern of misconduct. If true, this "honey pot" operation would demonstrate that the FBI was targeting Trump even before the Russia collusion narrative began, confirming Trump's claims about deep state opposition from the very beginning of his campaign. These revelations, taken together, show that Trump's warnings about FBI corruption were not just accurate. They were understated.
