The Federal government should exclude these non-cooperating departments from the 1033 program[1] then. I hate it when Democrats just throw up their arms and act exasperated; there _is_ a way here. Withhold FBI's cooperation from these

I have a book that my advisor lent me. He had checked it out in the 70s as a grad student from his university library. I'd been meaning to return it in person the next time I'm there, but dang COVID had other plans.
