Such as Wednesday night when he participated in a discussion with fellow Fox News colleague Greg Jarrett who proceeded to accuse Robert Mueller of using the FBI as a “political weapon,” while comparing the agency to the KGB, literally calling it a “shadow government.”

could be about two things:

1. Making the case for stopping/firing Mueller soon as he seems to be closing in on the WH.

2. Making the case for the creation of Erik Prince's private rendition and spy network because the FBI is now just a "political weapon" of a "shadow government" (which is just what Erik Prince's private Gestapo would actually be).

But Fox's current claim is as untruthful as James Comey's tactics against Hillary were.
