WE HAVE REACHED THE POINT WHEN ALL AMERICA'S INSTITUTIONS SERVE THE CORRUPT DEMOCRAT PARTY WHICH ONLY SERVES THE RICH, BANKSTERS AND THE BILLIONAIRE CLASS
FBI Raids Home of NYPD Sergeants’ Union Head Who Criticized de Blasio and Cuomo
Is the FBI simply a corrupted tool in the hands of the political and media elites?

As Matt Margolis noted in July, the FBI is “corrupt and needs reform.” This reform became all the more urgent last week, when it was revealed that the feds were far more deeply involved in the January 6 insurrection-that-wasn’t-an-insurrection at the Capitol than had been previously known. But instead of moving to restore its shattered reputation and proving it hasn’t become little more than the far-Left’s muscle, the FBI on Tuesday raided the home of Sergeants Benevolent Association (SBA) President Ed Mullins, a Trump supporter and outspoken critic of New York Mayor Bill de Blasio.
According to the New York Daily News, the raid “also targeted the police union’s Lower Manhattan headquarters.” The FBI confirmed that it was “carrying out a law enforcement action in connection with an ongoing investigation” into the 13,000-member SBA. Said de Blasio: “All I have been told is the FBI has raided the SBA HQ and it’s in connection with an ongoing investigation, but we don’t have further details on that at this moment.”
The mayor couldn’t resist, however, kicking Mullins while he was down: “A lot of what he’s done has been really, really destructive — especially in the middle of a crisis where we’re trying to unify and we’re trying to get through together. I think he’s been a divisive voice. … All I hear is the FBI raid. I want to hear the details before I comment further.”
Mullins aroused de Blasio’s ire when he posted the arrest report of Chiara de Blasio, the mayor’s daughter, on Twitter; Chiara de Blasio was arrested in May 2020 during the George Floyd riots in Manhattan. According to the Daily News, Mullins was accused of “violating department rules” in disclosing Chiara’s private information, while his lawyer, Andrew Quinn, noted that the report had already been publicized and stated: “We see this case an attempt to chill Ed Mullins’s First Amendment rights.”
Amid the controversy, Mullins “vowed to continue speaking out whenever he believes cops are vilified or mistreated” and declared: “De Blasio’s City Hall has been at war with cops since his first days in office. Charges against union activism that City Hall doesn’t like — speaking truth to those who claim power — is sadly what we’ve come to expect from this administration.”
Mullins has made other enemies as well. Former mayoral candidate Maya Wiley, who previously had worked for de Blasio, excoriated Mullins for alleged “racism.” And in May 2020, New York’s then-Health Department Commissioner Dr. Oxiris Babot declared “I don’t give two rats’ a**es about your cops” in response to a request for more masks for the police. Mullins tweeted in response: “Truth is this b***h has blood on her hands but why should anyone be surprised the NYPD has suffered under DeBlasio since he became Mayor.”
In May 2021, Mullins wrote that New York’s then-Governor Andrew Cuomo “never met a murderer he did not want to parole,” and that de Blasio “never passes up an opportunity to bash the police.” He also criticized City Council Speaker Corey Johnson, “who along with many cohorts was a strong supporter of bail and police ‘reform’ laws which have rendered the cops all but impotent and turned New York into an urban facsimile of a Wild West frontier town.”
Mullins added: “Words have consequences and, since first taking office in 2014, de Blasio’s incendiary anti-police rhetoric has already resulted in three police officers being executed while sitting in police vehicles, Molotov cocktails being lobbed at officers and into police vehicles, armed assaults on police facilities, cops being pelted with debris, and wholesale damage to police and public property.”
He even called out these Leftist officials’ race hypocrisy: “Despite these officials presenting themselves as beacons of hope for communities of color amid a mushroom cloud of systemic racism, they have all been notably silent despite there being a steady increase in violent crime since the ‘reforms,’ including a 166 per cent uptick in shootings from April 2020 to the same month this year. The 2020 ‘reform’ package has done nothing but kneecap the police and increase violent crime to levels not seen since the early 1990s. All the progressive changes meant to even the playing field for minority residents has only resulted in scores of Black and Hispanic becoming victims of crime.”
Now the FBI has raided the home and offices of one of New York City Leftist establishment’s most high-profile critics. This will only fuel suspicions that the FBI is an institutionally corrupt and compromised agency that does not work impartially, but is simply a tool in the hands of the political and media elites. If we had any journalists today, this would be a huge story and there would be urgent calls from people at every point on the political spectrum for a thorough investigation of the FBI. But nothing is less likely than that.
I, Domestic Terrorist
Merrick and Joe are building the Reich back better.

A Memo to Secretary of Homeland Gestapo Merrick Garland:
Sir,
Your party and the teachers’ unions for which it stands have decided that those who protest too loudly at school committee meetings are domestic terrorists, should be investigated by the FBI under the Patriot Act and, perhaps, confined to Gitmo for the duration of the culture war.
After the January 6 fracas at the Capitol, Democrats determined that those who question the integrity of the last election are violent insurrectionists. Can one be both – say, a terrorist insurrectionist?
At any rate, the definition of domestic terrorist is expanding. Soon, it may include anyone who’s posted mean tweets about President Geezer, owns a pickup truck with a gun rack or doesn’t run shrieking into the night at the sight of an American flag.
And while I’ve never harassed a Senator in a restroom, burned down business districts, assaulted a cop in the name of racial equality or left our borders wide open to criminals, drugs and real terrorists – crimes which members of your party and their anarchist auxiliary commit regularly with impunity -- nonetheless, it seems that I am person of interest.
Here are a few of the things which (in the estimation of your party) mark me as someone who bears watching:
- I believe in the Constitution, including the First Amendment. Among other fundamental liberties, it guarantees the right to speak at public meetings against the government and its minions, including school committee members and teachers. Our freedom of speech trumps your paranoia. There is no First Amendment exception for something progressives call hate speech.
- I believe public education is in the business of indoctrination. Turning children against their parent’s values and into compliant subjects of the state is the foundation of totalitarianism. A precursor of the modern Democrat Party, V.I. Lenin said: “Give me four years to teach children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.” The NEA has them for 12 years. The only thing public about public education is who pays for it.
- I believe parents have a right to control their children’s education. Children are born into families, not into governments. Adam and Eve weren’t created by a bureaucracy. Long, long ago, in a galaxy far, far away, public schools taught individualism, personal responsibility and patriotism. Now, they teach the true believer creed of the radical left – determinism, socialism and scapegoating
- I think the alleged existence of "white supremacy" (the basis of Critical Race Theory) is an absurdity. In America today, whites are at the bottom of the food chain. You can ridicule them, discriminate against them and even assault them in broad daylight without consequence. I can’t wait to see what the administration has planned for Caucasian Heritage Month this year,
- I do not believe there’s an epidemic of gun violence. In the hands of the law-abiding (used for self-defense) guns aren’t a disease but a cure. There is an epidemic of lawlessness in this country reflected in what your party and its allies have done to our once-great cities. Police budgets have been slashed while crime is rampant, and prosecutors (elected with Soros money) have set up a revolving door at the entrance to the Halls of Justice.
- I believe election fraud is the sine qua non of the Democrat Party. I don’t know if the last election was stolen. I do know there was massive fraud – facilitated by mail-in voting (which your party loves). In the future, this could be ameliorated by voter ID (which your party hates).
- I believe that what happened on January 6 was more comedy than tragedy. The so-called insurrectionists were as organized as the fire brigade in a Charlie Chaplin movie. But your party needs them to fire up Democratic donors for next year’s election, and as fodder for your neo-McCarthyite hearings. (“Are you now, or have you ever been, a violent insurrectionist?”) The so-called assault on democracy that supposedly took place in early January feeds into the myth that there are hardcore Trump supporters in the hinterlands plotting the overthrow of the government.
- I believe the threats to America are, in ascending order of importance: Iran, Islamic extremism, Red China, anarchy in our streets and your boss and those who pull the marionette’s strings. As a security threat, parents protesting at school committee meetings are right up there with those who don’t recycle.
- I think face masks are a sign of servitude and a talking point for the 2022 campaign. They are a way to keep the credulous in full panic mode over a “pandemic” that’s become as dangerous as the seasonal flu. But Democrats are going to run on face masks and vaccinations (with drugs developed under Trump) next year. What else do they have – our “extraordinarily successful” withdrawal from Afghanistan, the remarkable Biden economy, border security?
- I thank God every minute of every day that your Supreme Court nomination was never confirmed. At the most you’ll be tormenting us for another 3 ½ years instead of (on average) 16 years as a Justice.
- I believe that America is still worth fighting for. Too many brave men and women have spilled too much blood over the centuries to just roll over for you and the ideologues who control your party.
Between demonizing demonstrators, promoting paranoia, fighting family values, and trampling the Bill of Rights underfoot, you and Der Fuhrer are doing a great job of building the Reich back better.
If contempt for the elite is a terrorist impulse, you might as well take me into custody and trundle me off to the hoosegow. Maybe I’ll share a cell with Lady Liberty.
Respectfully,
A Violent Domestic Insurrectionist
