Earlier this year, we noted that the FBI had quietly changed its own description about how it was primarily focused on „law enforcement“ to claiming that it was now primarily focused on „national security.“ That is, over the past decade, the FBI has shifted from being a law enforcement agency, looking to stop crimes, to an intelligence agency, spying on Americans and searching for „terrorists.“ Of course, this focus has meant that it has basically ignored tons of criminal activity including things like mortgage fraud, which helped create the economic crisis a few years ago. Instead, the FBI has expended so much effort on creating and busting its own fake terrorist plots.
