Is it time to dismantle the Federal Bureau of Investigation?
Conservative talk show host Tara Servatius has been beating that drum for some time, and now it seems other members of the GOP are catching up to her and climbing aboard the anti-FBI bandwagon.
"I feel like I was kind of out on a limb," Servatius said of how she felt when she first put forth the suggestion that the FBI was no longer necessary and was, in fact, abusing its authority.
"Clear the place out down to the janitor, make sure the lights are off in the building," she said. "Make sure it's safe and detonate the thing so it can't ever come back."
Servatius noted on the Wednesday edition of The Tara Show that the FBI is not mentioned in the U.S. Constitution.
"The FBI's only been around for 100 years," she said. "We did just find without one. We'll do just fine in the future. States can handle crime just fine. We don't need them."
Servatius went on to say that the idea still gives pause to the "country clubbers" in the Republican party, but she feels it's not such a radical take anymore.
