Reminder: not a single conservative elected official has "conserved" the military values that would have stopped this bullshit in its tracks.
The FBI is a cancer on our nation. Reading reports like this it's quite clear that it isn't only the DC HQ types - this entrapment scheme encompassed field offices from multiple states:

The Informant at the Heart of the Gretchen Whitmer Kidnapping Plot Was a Liability. So Federal Agents Shut Him Up.
Internal FBI reports and undercover recordings reveal that federal agents were concerned about entrapment claims.
Great point made by @DoombergT that highlights how Trump had Russia containment right & Biden's flying monkey flunkies are back asswards:
Commodities (like energy) have inelastic supply & demand curves.
High supply = low price
Low supply = high price
Trump unleashing the US energy sector walloped the RUS GDP.
Biden sanctions lowered their volume but drove prices higher, making Putin far richer than before & funding Russia's war machine.
The people in charge lack the capacity to understand basic concepts & have too much hubris to ask the people who actually know (like O&G pros or commodities traders -> both of which typically skew conservative):
