> The DOJ sought to prevent the loss of classified information which may or may not have ever existed related to spying programs that may or may not have ever existed. That's well within their responsibilities
Really? Wouldn’t most people think a Department of Justice should be actively hunting down and prosecuting those who illegally spy on US Citizens?
I mean they’re supposed to work for us, uphold our laws and constitution etc. If employees of executive branch agencies conspire to defraud citizens of the United States of their most basic rights (4th amendment?) isn’t that a crime they should be pursuing?
Instead they seem far more interested in suppressing evidence of the crime.
- lern_too_spel 4y agoThere is no evidence in this story that anybody was illegally spying on US citizens. The FBI had a court order to allow this operation.
