Gone are the days we just assumed the FBI were doing the right thing.

Hah ... the Longshoremen’s union should arrest the FBI for corruption, lying, and civil rights violations.

I’m surprised these guys voted for Trump, but they must have — I can’t think of any other reason the FBI would hassle them.

They probably weren’t paying the FBI the appropriate vig.

“Longshoremen” is a sexist throwback word.

The correct term is stevedore.

The FBI should not have to be told to avoid those kinds of words.

Feels good to get it in first once in a while.

I would not know. The FBI in Puerto Rico had a press conference scheduled for 11:00 AM local time to provide additional details. Meanwhile, the “Organized Crime Law” mentioned in the news brief happens to be RICO.

““Longshoremen” is a sexist throwback word.”

Your right! They probably triggered thousands of stevedores.
