    From the 90s until they shit all over themselves and let 9-11 happen maybe? I dunno, every law enforcement agency in America are a bunch of overpaid jackboot thugs. Always have been.

      Putting the blame for 9/11 on the FBI is not fair. They were working on several al-Qaeda investigations, and knew the identities of several people who ended up being hijackers. The CIA, however, refused to share crucial information with them - including the fact that they had entered the US.

      I’m not saying they have done no wrong, but the CIA had access to much more intel than they did.
