@julianhermanubis6800 He ridiculed people for believing in the "Mafia myth", while secretly partying poolside with mob bosses in Vegas.
He amassed power over 48 years as the Director of an unconstitutional secret police, compiling an extensive and illegal collection of files on prominent people throughout society, including Presidents, Congressmen, Governors, Chiefs of Police, businessmen, actors, political activists, and mayors.
They did this under the guise of anti-communism, while being co-opted by the Soviets out of the gate when the Bureau was founded.
The Bureau has been an unmitigated catastrophe for the US, resulting in close to a century of unconstitutional secret police activities directed mostly against the innocent, while covering for the guilty-as long as they increase their power.

@popularhistory6118 Soviets co-opted the FBI early-on, to use as a disruptive and demoralizing secret police within the US, as well as a Trojan horse ministry of internal security modeled after their own Cheka.
It would serve as a useful tool against Presidents, Congress, DoD, and State LE, providing a massive internally-funded surveillance state directed against key people in the US, helping the Soviets to target and exploit those people for Soviet interests.
They also use the Bureau to cover their high-level moles, shutting down any effective counterintelligence operations wherever possible, and feed moles from FBI into CIA and other agency ranks at their pleasure.
You get a sense of this studying the JFK, RFK, MLK assassinations, Church Committee hearings, Ali Mohamed case, 1993 WTC bombing, OKC Bombing, Al Farouque mosque in Brooklyn, and Robert Hanssen cases.
Soviets have leveraged the Bureau to enhance terrorist and foreign intelligence service operations directed against the US throughout its history. They've been played like a fiddle by the Russians/Soviets.
