DAVID MARCUS: With an FBI Americans can't trust, conspiracy theories are booming business.

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

42% : In New Orleans, for example, the FBI's initial reaction was to tell the American people that it was not an act of terrorism, presumably for reasons of political correctness.
42% : The fact that he made Trump and Musk central to the drama is only adding fuel to the metaphorical fire.
39% : If the bureau laments its diminished image, it can thank its own history of spying on Trump, targeting Catholics and parents who try to hold their children's schools accountable, and slavish devotion to diversity, equity and inclusion at the expense of truth and merit.
27% : But, as the saying goes, the first step in solving a problem is admitting that you have one, and as the election of Trump, and likely confirmation of Patel attests to, Americans damn well know what the problem is.
