:: the NSA doesn’t have a mechanism to sweep in and save the day. ::
But, since they are a repository of [all] information and “less firepower”, they do have a MOAB they can drop.
See my previous thoughts on the “NSA accidental info-drop oopsie” possibility.

Not aiming at you particularly, Cletus, but ...
Why are you so certain NSA doesn't have active teams?
As I said earlier, I have a first-hand witness (friend and former business partner who was sniper in Laos for C_A) who says they do.
Admittedly, that is not proof. He could have been lying (now deceased). But what is your source? Official pronouncements? Movies?
BTW, I am not suggesting the NSA sweepers would take out normal U.S. civilians, no matter how corrupt.
I do believe, however, that THIS IS AN INTELLIGENCE WAR. Hence, many of the "combatants" fit the definition of rogue agents subject to removal.
This fits the definition of [Except 1] = NSA as the alternative to (prosecutions and transparency).
Yes, the NSA does have that MOAB, but it would be legal to deploy it. Just need to get a warrant based on testimony of some of the bad actors to get all the texts, phone calls, emails, of the cabal that was plotting to clear Hillary and frame Trump, and then keep digging. The NSA, us, we have it all, as has been said many times. Don’t need to even release it by accident.
