There is one power than can remove them, and if they are not going to follow the rule of law, they need to be removed. Congress can de fund them as a branch of government. If it comes to that then the FBI and other three letter agencies deserve to be de funded. I know that's a harsh statement, and that most of the rank and file Agents are great people doing a job. however if the leadership is rotten, then it paints the rank and file in a very bad light. If Leadership is giving unconstitutional orders, and they are following them, perhaps they need to go into whistle blower status?
The power of the purse has become a figurative act. The bottomless pit of dark money and budgets that's completely outside of Congress' knowledge and control makes Congress' 'power of the purse' a neutered exercise. Withholding FBI funding would create a backdoor for money to come in to fill the void. It's possible the Biden Administration could re-appropriate money from other State Agencies to the FBI. I see this as a real possibility with all the other outrageous acts this regime has done.
very true, however it would also show how corrupt things really are. I can think of a few ways to mitigate this corruption, would just need to be implemented properly.
