Cry me a river. The news we've seen about the illicit FBI/DOJ conduct during the 2016 election season causes this citizen to think carefully about ever taking the U.S. Department of Justice and any of its divisions seriously again -- to the point of laughing in their faces and removing them from my property if they ever come around even to conduct a legitimate investigation.
When you see a media outlet like this one promoting the idea that a Federal bureaucracy should be allowed to operate without the complete oversight of our primary governing body (Congress), you know they realize the game is over. You'd never see this kind of stupidity if it was a Democratic House committee requesting FBI documents related to a Democratic president.
The agent should update his resume and move-on.
“it would cause him to think carefully about whether to withhold sensitive information from future reports.”
Fire this guy.
