It’s time to abolish the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

The G-men have degenerated into nothing more than a racketeering enterprise, a banana republic-style criminal conspiracy of vast proportions.

Now we know that the FBI was plotting a coup against President-elect Trump.

The crooked cops even had a name for their Democrat cabal — the Secret Society. It’s all laid out in black and white, in the post-election texts the FBI neglected to delete as part of their ongoing obstruction of justice.

How many scandals does the FBI get a pass on?

As a society, we’ve eradicated earlier threats to the public order — the American Communist Party and La Cosa Nostra, among others. Is the current police-state incarnation of the FBI any less sinister than either of those two mobs?

The solution is very simple — we have the DEA take over all federal police functions, just like they did with the Whitey Bulger investigation here in Boston because the FBI was too corrupt to be trusted. Maybe the U.S. Marshals could help out, too. They’re a lot better at finding fugitives than Famous But Incompetent.

Abolishing the FBI may sound like a radical solution, but they have metastasized into a clear and present danger to the Republic.

This latest attempted coup is so much worse than Watergate or any of the earlier scandals that have rocked the Bureau.

This Comey-Strzok-Page gang didn’t need no stinkin’ warrants. Or, if they did bother to get them, they made up the evidence they took to the courts — like the dodgy dossier.

And now we find out the FBI is claiming that 50,000 smoking-gun texts between the two crooked lovebirds, Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, have disappeared due to a “misconfiguration.”

Do you believe this? Me neither. This is, after all, the FBI. They lie like a rug, always have, always will.

Think about Zip Connolly ­— “decorated” FBI agent now doing life in a Florida prison for a gangland hit in Florida. Or H. Paul Rico, another G-man who died in a prison hospital in Oklahoma after being arrested for yet another organized-crime rubout in Oklahoma. And this is just the Boston office, where gangster Stevie Flemmi told the DEA that he and Whitey Bulger were bribing six — six! —agents.

Boston, the same FBI office where the agents knew that a hood named Teddy Deegan was going to be hit, and by whom. Yet they let it happen and then allowed four innocent men to be framed for the murder in order to protect the serial-killing brother of Flemmi, who after all was paying them all off.

As evil as all this stuff is, it pales in comparison to what it now appears was an attempted coup by the top brass of the FBI.

The “Secret Society,” as the plotters call themselves, is now desperately trying to cover up how they attempted to rig a presidential election on behalf of the most corrupt candidate in American history, Hillary Clinton, using a fake document largely produced by Vladimir Putin’s operatives.

That’s the real Russian collusion — the FBI using Kremlin-generated disinformation that Hillary Clinton paid millions for to violate the civil rights of American citizens.

And now the G-men claim they’ve “lost” the evidence, just like the Deep State “lost” Hillary Clinton’s 33,000 emails and IRS crook Lois Lerner’s hard drive.

It’s time to put the FBI out of business, throw as many of these corrupt G-men into prison as possible, raze the J. Edgar Hoover Office Building in D.C., sow the land with salt, hold an exorcism and turn it into a parking lot.

There is only one way to restore the rule of law and order. The FBI must be abolished.
