    > Philip Fields, former counterterrorism analyst: The first thing they did was they disbanded our Foreign Influence Task Force. They said that we had to pull back on investigations under the Foreign Agent Registration Act, which applies to people who might be working at the direction of a foreign government without disclosing it. People that I worked with in the counterintelligence program were very upset about a lot of the investigative tools being taken away.

    Wow this is scary. Suggests a cover up of treason, frankly. Maybe Trump himself. Or his family members or close friends. I wonder if he is compromised by China or Russia, given how quickly he is dismantling America.

      Respectfully, this is the FBI. They’re supposed to be the best of the best at what they do.

      If they could not see this coming from 100 miles away and do SOMETHING, they are seriously incompetent and taking away their tools and funding doesn’t even matter anymore.
