He has a very real sense of PUBLIC optics. Most of the career mooks who head up large Federal agencies have a keenly developed sense of INSIDE The Beltway optics. What Joe American thinks? Not so much.

It promises to be interesting.

Which Bongino has mentioned many times on his radio show. If the evidence hasn’t been destroyed, we may finally get an answer. But that’s a big if on the evidence.

==
‘Too many agencies’ is not a problem. Agencies with bad missions, agencies with corrupted institutional cultures, agencies with confused missions, and agencies with powers too extensive and too intensive are a problem.
==
Have a gander at DoJ. Now see if you can find a department at the state or local level with this assemblage of services. Now ask yourself just what is the division of labor between DoJ and Homeland Security.
==
Now look at the FBI and try to make sense of the division of labor between it and other federal investigatory agencies.
==
FBI is an omnibus agency which investigates just about anything it cares to. Why do we have such an agency?
==
It’s all just a collection of barnacles.

He’d be liable for civil damages if Trump decided to sue him (but since Trump is a public figure, that would likely fail), but what’s the criminal exposure?

Why do you think that would be good?
I thought too many agencies was already a problem.
