17 years ago when 9/11 happened most people simply could not believe the FBI was this corrupt.
Thank goodness the Truth is coming out.
Government is just the biggest baddest organized crime gang. The fact that they protect you against real threats like foreign invasion doesn't make it any more ethical than extortion rackets that provide real protection against petty criminals.
If someone wants one fact to prove the the US government is fundamentally, institutionally, constitutionally, corrupt I would suggest civil forfeiture is proof. The police can seize any property without a trial by saying it was used in a crime. It doesn't matter if the owner of the property is not involved in the crime or is suspected but found innocent. To get their property back, proving their innocence won't help, they have to go to court to prove the property was not used in a crime because civil forfeiture is completely legal and upheld by the scoundrels sitting on the supreme court. If the US was a nation founded on justice instead of corruption, this would have been corrected long ago. People stopped by the police who are carrying large sums of cash routinely have it seized because the police say it is evidence of a crime because criminals carry large sums of cash. The police get to keep some of the money for departmental use. When the police have our money how do you hire a lawyer to prove there was no crime?
