The FBI’s raid of Donald Trump’s residence in Mar-a-Lago on August 8, 2022 served as a wake-up call to the conservatives in the United States. The FBI is the enemy of Middle America and all of America’s traditions of limited government.
The days of political decency and neutrality are over. We’re in a cold civil war which will require the Right to take harsh measures against institutions that punish right-wing constituencies.
Texas Republican leaders are beginning to recognize this. Matt Rinaldi, the Chairman of the Texas Republican Party, immediately called for the abolition of the FBI in the wake of the agency’s raid of Trump’s residency. Rinaldi tweeted, “Abolish the FBI.“
Rinaldi was first elected to be Chairman of the Texas Republican Party back in 2021 and has made the party go in a more hardline, America First direction.
Abolish the FBI.

While not as bold as Rinaldi’s statement, State House Representative Bryan Slayton roundly condemned the FBI’s move against Trump.
He tweeted, “We are at war with the Left. Watergate pales in comparison and it’s time to stop acting like Democrats are a party we can work with. Texas should immediately expel all FBI employees from our state until this madness ends”
