That\u2019s the only leverage we ultimately have in Congress. We have to look at the power of the purse if we\u2019re ever going to get control of these agencies who did this not just once, but multiple times.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>             \u201cWe got to keep talking about it. We got to pass legislation if we can to deal with it,\u201d the congressman said. \u201cAnd then we have to look at the money, the appropriations, and say, \u2018How can we direct these funds? How can we better position these funds? What can we do to stop this from happening in the future?\u2019\u201d <\/p>\n<p>             Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, told Jesse Watters Primetime that Congress must do more than continue to have reports released. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere needs to be consequences,\u201d Hawley said. \u201cFBI leadership has clearly got to be changed. And Jesse, I\u2019m of the mind we need to end the FBI as we know it. It needs to be broken up. I mean, clearly, it has become corrupt. The leadership is corrupt. You can talk to FBI agents in the field. I was just doing this just this past week. Great folks in my home state, all over the place, but they\u2019re not served by this leadership. This leadership has become totally, radically politicized, and we have got to change it.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>             \u201cThe Democrats tried to use the FBI to rig a presidential election and just about got away with it. They succeeded in getting the FBI to intervene. They succeeded in getting the FBI to lie to a court to get wiretaps. They succeeded in getting a presidential campaign, Donald Trump\u2019s campaign, spied on,\u201d Hawley continued. \u201cI mean, it\u2019s amazing that there is something like this in American history \u2014 I don\u2019t know what it is. And that\u2019s why I say there needs to be prosecutions. There needs to be accountability. And the FBI has got to be overhauled now top to bottom. It\u2019s got to be completely reformed. It cannot go on like it is.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>             CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER <\/p>\n<p>             Trump reacted to the news of the Durham report, touting the findings. <\/p>\n<p>            &#8220;WOW! After extensive research, Special Counsel John Durham concludes the FBI never should have launched the Trump-Russia Probe! In other words, the American Public was scammed, just as it is being scammed right now by those who don\u2019t want to see GREATNESS for AMERICA!&#8221; the former president wrote on the social media platform Truth Social.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republican lawmakers are calling for efforts to reform the FBI, including legislation that would pull back funds from the federal agency, following the release of special counsel John Durham&#8217;s report on the FBI&#8217;s investigation into former President Donald Trump&#8217;s alleged links to Russia.
