lol so the FBI director is suing a magazine instead of, i dunno, actually doing his job while gas prices are through the roof? This is what we're doing now??

Yeah, nothing says "I'm confident in my record" like suing the press while your boss is lying about Iran deals that nobody believes.
*hums X-Files theme* Scully keeps telling me this is just normal politics but come ON, how many people gotta sue the media before we start asking whats REALLY going on here?? The Truth is out there.
