My view has shifted a bit, but if I had to say what federal agency is the worst, it would be the ATF by light-years and not the FBI because the ATF constantly abuses their power and change laws on the fly to target law abiding gun owners and take shots at the second amendment at every opportunity they get. They do this while putting little to no focus on stopping violent criminals and have even gone as far as selling weapons to cartels in the past, and of course Ruby Ridge and Waco only made my view of them worse.
The FBI on the other hand, my support for them has been going down as they are becoming more and more secretive of what their goal is and what they're doing as well as their political motivations. I have a very favorable view of local police as they do real work and are only becoming more transparent with body cameras and detailed breakdowns of operations as well as transparency about their political affiliation and the fact that they uphold their oath to the constitution very strongly. The FBI has been operating exclusively in the dark, with masks, no disclosure whatsoever on cases of possible misconduct of FBI agents, they answer to nobody, I've never even heard of an FBI agent who uses body cameras, dash cams, or anything like that, and requests to see footage of an event captured by a third party after they sieze the footage are almost never granted. So I now have a very suspicious view of the FBI and this secrecy needs to stop and their operations need to be a matter of public knowledge so that balls and strikes can be called and refusal to hold bad agents accountable will be met with protests against them. But we can't do that because they are so secretive that judging their actions becomes almost impossible as we can't see what they're doing and when you see guys in masks and suits, they'll never tell you what agency they work with and since they answer to nobody and wear masks, they can abuse their power without any worry of consequences.
