He called them \u201coutrageous and deeply alarming,\u201d highlighting how the FBI had \u201cbur[ied] the entire process \u2026 to evade all oversight.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>This is just one example of the federal overreach practiced under the Biden administration. As IFA covered last year, congressional investigators reportedly collected 30 million lines of phone data as part of a January 6 investigation. And, on a similar note, the FBI, under the direction of Special Counsel Jack Smith, collected the phone records of several Republican lawmakers. The Biden-era FBI also paid a foreign anti-Trump group hundreds of thousands of dollars to assist with investigations.\n<\/p>\n<p>Director Patel is working hard to right the ship and purge the FBI of all corruption. Let\u2019s pray for him as he works to guide the organization, and let\u2019s pray for an end to all federal overreach!\n<\/p>\n<h4>Share your prayers for the FBI and for Director Patel below.<\/h4>\n<p>(Excerpt from Just the News.
