I think a lot of the rank and file who work at the FBI are probably good people and don’t do their jobs through the prism of ideology. It seems that was left to the upper crust of the FBI with James Comey, Lisa Page, Peter Strzok and so forth. So it should be no surprise surprised that FBI insiders are lashing out over that embarrassing Comey interview with ABC. After that interview Comey went on to embarrass himself on The View, CNN and even MSNBC.

James Comey’s first interview since President Trump fired him as director of the FBI has enraged his former agents, who deluged The Daily Beast with their disdain as they watched him tell his side of the story to George Stephanopoulos on Sunday night.
Seven current or former FBI agents and officials spoke throughout and immediately after the broadcast. There was a lot of anger, frustration, and even more emojis—featuring the thumbs-down, frowny face, middle finger, and a whole lot of green vomit faces.
One former FBI official sent a bourbon emoji as it began; another sent the beers cheers-ing emoji. The responses became increasingly angry and despondent as the hourlong interview played out.
“Hoover is spinning in his grave,” said a former FBI official. “Making money from total failure.”
