I wonder if the FBI would be interested in a list of Us Representatives that are receiving bribes from foreign powers.

I got a list!

My thoughts exactly, these guys have been bought by Russia.

Unfortunately the FBI is not the beacon of trust either these days

Under the current leadership too? Obviously James Comey helped sway a democratic election in favor of an authoritarian sociopath, but I've not heard of any post-Comey scandals worth noting. I don't like the surveillance state the US has frustratingly subscribed too, but technically the FBI is not breaking the law by snooping on citizens (not advocating for forgiveness, just being factual).

FBI is classically Republican aligned

What's disappointing is that the US Military Industrial Complex can't be bothered to outspend Russia on this, even though allllll that aid goes into their pockets.
