“When the White House is facing Congressional Republican opposition claiming that the Biden administration has ‘weaponized’ the Bureau against the right wing, it has to tread very carefully,” says a senior FBI official.

I can’t speak for US, but here in Melbourne Australia, our cops are legends, so I definitely wouldn’t say all.
But even in US, I’m sure there are a lot of good cops too
The problem in the US is that they don’t do nearly enough to stop bad cops or make them face punishment.
If you’re a so called “good” cop but you can’t stop your compatriots from organizing internal gangs and breaking the law with impunity and hiding behind the benefits of the badge (qualified immunity, civil forfeiture, etc), you have become a bad cop.
They always claim it’s “a couple of bad apples” while ignoring the whole phrase is “a couple of bad apples spoil the bunch.”
You don’t get to claim being a good cop if you work with bad cops and aren’t doing everything you can to get them punished to the fullest extent of the law.
Yes, that’s even if it’s because you knew there would be violent retaliation up to and including being murdered by your fellow cops (that has happened recently in California). You can either walk away with the evidence you have and give it to the public, or you can sit on it for your own safety.
I mean seriously, if there’s cops willing to fuck up your life because you’re a good cop, the entire system is already off the fucking rails, my man.
