A Rasmussen poll, and they usually come up with interesting stuff, has uncovered that a majority of US voters believe that the FBI has become the personal Gestapo of the Biden regime. There is 76 percent of Republicans agreeing with the claim, and an unsurprising 57 percent of Democrats disagreeing. Naturally I agree, since the raid on Mar-a-Lago comes after numerous activities by the FBI that qualify them as being the real home grown threat to freedom.
“According to a Rasmussen poll published on Thursday, 53% of voters now agree with the statement that there is "a group of politicized thugs at the top of the FBI who are using the FBI ... as Joe Biden's personal Gestapo." The Gestapo were the official secret police of Nazi Germany.
The sentiment resonates with Republicans in particular, with 76% agreeing with the statement. Democrats, on the other hand, mainly (57%) disagree. Among those affiliated with either party, 49% agree with the characterization of the FBI as President Joe Biden's "personal Gestapo" and 38% disagree.
The statement was originally made by Roger Stone, an adviser to former President Donald Trump, in a November 28, 2021 interview on John Catsimatidis' WABC 770 AM radio show. In the interview, Stone criticized both the FBI's raid on the home of James O'Keefe, Project Veritas founder (conducted as part of an investigation into reports of a stolen diary belonging to Biden's daughter Ashley), and what he argued was "harassment" by the House committee investigating the January 6 Capitol Hill protests. Stone, himself, was subject to a pre-dawn FBI raid executed by over a dozen special agents in tactical gear in January 2019.
Rasmussen Reports conducted its survey of 1,000 U.S. likely voters on August 15 and 16, one week after the FBI raided the former president's Mar-a-Lago residence.”
