GOP lawmakers adopt ‘defund’ rallying cry for FBI

Fresno CA

Description

After the FBI conducted a search of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence on Monday, Republicans reacted in outrage, with a handful calling for the FBI to be defunded or abolished. South Carolina Rep. Jeff Duncan (R) wrote on Twitter, “The FBI has proven time and again that it is corrupt to the core. At what point do we abolish the Bureau and start over?” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) tweeted “DEFUND THE FBI!” and is now selling apparel bearing the same slogan. (Greene is an embarrassment. The right lambasted 'defund the police' in unison, but now it's ok to 'defund the FBI'?)
