Calls for the prosecution of politicians, including Donald Trump, who were involved in the events challenging the election certification, have intensified, with some demanding imprisonment for aiding insurrectionists, jury tampering, hate speech, and death threats. In contrast, Trump's proposal to fund a 'new and spectacular' FBI headquarters has provoked a heated debate. Critics argue that Trump is rewarding an agency that targeted his campaign and supporters, despite his previous conflicts with the FBI, which included a raid on his home. Others view the move as a strategic effort to keep his adversaries within sight. The issue has also highlighted differing approaches to the FBI's future, with Ron DeSantis advocating for dismantling and decentralizing federal agencies, including moving the FBI out of DC to splinter its power. Trump's supporters defend the proposal, while some call for abolishing the FBI, citing the need for a clean house and firing corrupt agents. The debate encompasses various perspectives, from those who see Trump's actions as '8D chess' to those who question the loyalty of representatives who previously voted to fund a new FBI HQ. The controversy extends to the FBI's actions, such as targeting parents at school board meetings and obtaining a fraud FISA warrant. The discussion also touches on the sentiments of individuals facing charges over the January 6th events and their views on a 'new and spectacular' FBI building. Trump's commitment to the FBI headquarters has been contrasted with his promise to build a border wall, and DeSantis has been noted for turning the table on the former president.
Trump vows to build 'new and spectacular building' for FBI, DeSantis turns the table on former president https://t.co/6wTmy7Hunz https://t.co/VIEJmLxmJ4
What's your favorite cope for Mr. Trump endorsing a new FBI headquarters? a) Look, I support Mr. Trump, but I don't agree on everything b) So you're saying you want to send the FBI into red states? c) Actually, good architecture is good d) Keep your enemies close / Trust the plan
Mr. Trump is more dedicated to building a new FBI headquarters than he is to building the wall. https://t.co/DazdxiTpK9
I wonder what the folks facing charges over J6 think of a “new and spectacular” FBI building.
The same FBI that targeted parents for defending their kids at school board meetings, the same FBI that pursued those who didn’t even attend J6, the same FBI whose leaders colluded with the DOJ to get a fraud FISA warrant deserve a “new and spectacular building?” WTF?
The FBI can’t be “reformed.” The right answer is: Shut It Down. Yes, the President can do it. I will.
Trump’s influencers are now defending his call to build a ‘spectacular’ new HQ for the FBI. These are the same people who spent years demanding no funding for a new FBI HQ, and denounced the reps who voted to fund it as traitors. Listless vessels was the perfect description.
TRUMP IS RIGHT AGAIN, YOU DESIMPS! BY BUILDING THE FBI A NEW HEADQUARTERS, HE IS KEEPING HIS ENEMIES CLOSE!!!!!!! https://t.co/6TjA5OTYF6
It’s time to abolish the FBI, not get them a new building! https://t.co/40w9vHpTjs
Trump is wrong. Instead of sending more tax dollars to liberal DC to fund a new FBI building, why not clean house by firing all the dirty ones in DC, building a new building in a red state, and hire new people? It would be a win/win for conservatives—a red state would get…
Bronze Age Pervert retweeted this moron and neither of them read the article they’re sharing. Bacon says moving the FBI’s HQ is not the same thing as reforming it. DeSantis wants to move *and* radically reform it with a purge; Trump just wants to build them a beautiful HQ, a… https://t.co/kL22VzImFy https://t.co/v5KQ8iRvG9
No. FBI needs to be totally reformed or dismantled. https://t.co/fPanNAH7nh
How about abolish the FBI https://t.co/WRMMpFPczf
what if we bribed Trump not to run by letting him build the new FBI building and fill it with wonderful golden toilets and the such https://t.co/WcN8MiHFMf
The new talking point is that Trump wants to build a "new spectacular" FBI building in DC so he can keep them close and watch them...I am not kidding you Do these people ever reach a point where they're "I'm done, this is getting way to exhausting for me"?
Shut down the FBI. Then begin the investigations, prosecutions, convictions, and imprisonments. https://t.co/G4yjSg9UbZ
Trump wants to build new office space for the FBI. DeSantis wants to build office space for the booty patrol. Choose wisely.
BREAKING: Mr. Trump is making good on his promise to fund a new and spectacular headquarters for the FBI! Peep the GoFundMe donations. 👀 https://t.co/Ob7MZC87cx
Can you imagine how Trump sycophants would react if DeSantis had declared that the FBI deserves a “new and spectacular” building?! We could power half the country with the friction derived from their cognitive dissonance! https://t.co/EKoU96RsSR
lol DeSantis’ Washington policy is to dismantle the FBI, and all the other three letter trash agencies, and relocate them all over the country to splinter their power and death grip in DC. Trump, because he wants to be different from DeSantis, instead said the FBI actually…
Trump: "How dare the FBI raid my home for BS! Let's get them a sparkly new building!" https://t.co/GhbYbJKa9d
8D chess Trump is going to build the new fbi building so he can watch them!
You’re going to find out which hot take people are frauds now. People who have been talking about how the FBI is so corrupt it needs to be downsized, defunded, dismantled are going to defend Trump’s calls for giving it a new building in DC or attack DeSantis for calling him out. https://t.co/n1hb8PC0g3
Shut down the FBI. And yes, this is much more practical than it sounds: The FBI has a ~35,842 person staff. 56% of the bureau that are professional bureaucrats should be fired immediately. Just 44% of FBI employees are special agents & intelligence analysts—these 15,770…
Trump cultists defending expanding FBI power and building them a new HQ. Now I've seen it all.
The FBI spied on his campaign, setup and spied on his supporters and buried the Hunter Biden laptop story so he's going to punish them with a... "New and spectacular building" Yikes https://t.co/IgNj5xS9q3
MAGA when they see Trump’s truth social post about a new FBI building in DC https://t.co/oelnT792sg
OK cultists, please amuse me before the New Year with your pathetic excuses for this. Every sane American knows the FBI is out of control and should be decentralized and moved outside of DC. Not Trump. He wants to reward them in hopes they'll love him. He's worse than 2016. https://t.co/fdo2gZXFxS
OH MY GOD. This is real and I couldn’t have made it up. He wants to make the FBI more powerful and build them a new HQ. Can’t wait to read the cultist excuses for this train wreck. https://t.co/EVo3LgGX1B
He should immediately be apprehended, indicted, tried and convicted for jury tampering, hate speech, death threats, insurrection, providing aid and comfort to insurrectionists, mayhem, death and destruction. ENOUGH already. Remove him. Prevent further harm and crimes. Arrest DJT https://t.co/qVXz2rvbpi
Prosecute Johnson, all politicians, who supported planned, plotted, aided & gave comfort to any who participated in overthrowing the election & voted against the certification. They’ve all violated their oath, don’t deserve to be in office, but deserve to be in prison. https://t.co/0JSgtv28gz
