What the Hell is going on with our federal institutions? Where is this pressure coming from? What freedom loving American would think that this is OK and that this is what is going to make us safe. I am simply outraged.

Federal institutions are made up of people. Sometimes these people are very stupid. That's what I can tell, anyway, especially with two parents who are current/former feds. People like to paint the government as a monolith when in fact it's a bureaucracy with tons of organizational minutiae that don't exist outside the federal government. Also the FBI and such probably draw the sorts of sociopathic folks who would do that.
