This is the FBI that needs to be torn down

"False Heroes: Why the FBI's 'Terror Victories' Are Nothing More Than Tragic Manipulations".

In recent years, the FBI has become increasingly skilled not at capturing the masterminds of terror but at fabricating their own foes, preying on the vulnerable, the mentally ill, and the socially isolated.

And how. 

Michael Sam Teekaye's story is eerily similar. Befriended by the FBI at just 16, Michael was the classic misunderstood youth. He lived in his parents' basement, had been diagnosed with schizophrenia, and struggled with mental retardation. Over five years, the FBI cultivated Michael, feeding his delusions, suggesting he fulfill his fantasy of joining ISIS. Michael, with no money and no courage to leave his parents’ basement, spent years talking to an FBI friend who convinced him that his dream was valid. It was not Michael’s dream that was criminal—it was the FBI’s exploitation of it. They encouraged a mentally ill child, over nearly a quarter of his young life, only to arrest him once they had finally manipulated him into buying an airline ticket purchased for him by another FBI asset. His reward for these years of fake friendship? Arrest. Years in prison. The hollow boast of ‘victory’ for the FBI. This was no victory—it was a tragedy orchestrated by those who should have protected him.

And yet we repeatedly hear how some genuine terrorist who actually winds up killing people was "on the FBI's radar" - but left to go his own merry way.

Reform the FBI or tear it down and replace it with something better, whatever works.
