Biden accused of misusing FBI to go after parents
A congressional committee investigating the Biden administration’s misuse of the FBI believes there is more evidence the White House was part of a plan to use federal agents to intimidate parents critical of their local school board.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) is demanding White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zients turn over additional documents detailing the Biden Administration’s alleged “use of counterterrorism and criminal tools against parents exercising their First Amendment rights at school board meetings.”
“The letter renews the Committee’s outstanding requests for documents and communications from Mary C. Wall, a Senior Advisor to the President who served as the liaison between the White House and Executive Branch officials across multiple agencies, as well as the conduit between the White House and the National School Boards Association (NSBA),” the Committee reports.
“Although evidence shows the White House was heavily involved in the Administration’s targeting of parents, Executive Branch agencies have declined to provide any documents pertaining to the White House,” the Committee added.
Since October 2021 the Committee has issued over one hundred letters to Biden administration officials requesting documents and information on the White House’s use of federal counterterrorism resources to target, intimidate and attempt to silence average citizens who are critical of liberal policies enacted by local school boards.
In one case, FBI agents were sent to the home of a mother who announced she planned to run for her local school board against an advocate of the Biden administration’s “woke” social policiees.
“Whistleblowers have disclosed how, shortly after Attorney General Garland’s October 4 memorandum, the FBI’s Counterterrorism and Criminal Divisions created a specific “threat tag” for school board-related threats and even opened investigations into parents simply for speaking out on behalf of their children,” the Committee reports, adding “The Attorney General’s directive followed a letter from the NSBA to President Biden urging him to weaponize the Patriot Act against parents. Emails later showed how the Biden White House had advance knowledge of this letter and its contents and raised no objection.”
“On February 3, 2023, the Committee subpoenaed the FBI, Department of Justice (DOJ), and Department of Education (DOE) for documents and communications concerning the White House’s involvement in this misuse of counterterrorism and criminal tools, and so far, both DOJ and DOE have refused to provide any relevant information,” the Committee notes.

If the Biden administration did this it looks like a clear abuse of power. Parents exercising their first amendment rights to protest and to put political pressure on the education establishment are not a threat to national security and this would be a clear misuse of FBI resources to go after them.
