FBI provides more proof, if any were needed, that cockroaches hate the light.
In Reversal, FBI Now Emphasizes Role in Law Enforcement
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has decided to revise a controversial fact sheet that declared its primary mission to be "national security," following criticism that the agency seemed to be moving away from its longstanding role as the nation's preeminent law enforcement agency.
The change emphasizes that stopping terrorism and battling more conventional domestic criminal activity are both "primary functions" of the FBI. The lightning-fast revision should dispel any notion that large bureaucratic organizations can only operate at a snail's pace: The fact sheet was updated less than 48 hours after a report on it in Foreign Policy went viral last week. An FBI official confirmed that the change was a direct result of the article. . .
"That has to be some kind of a record," said Kel McClanahan, a Washington-based attorney who alerted FP to the original fact sheet revisions. "Doing this so quickly and so obviously cover your ass-y seems beneath them."
Now that's where he's wrong. In my experience absolutely NOTHING is beneath the secret political police of the FBI. The mass immolation of the Davidians proved that.

Kinda tough for the usurper to continue to employ those "national security letters" if the fibbies no longer present "national security" as a primary purpose. They had no choice but to make this turnabout, for his majesty must retain tools of diktat........especially the one he railed against when campaigning was needed to create "flexibility".
Don't worry, they're still passing out medals and promotions to anyone who will pull a trigger for them, or burn down a building on command.
There's always a prosecutor and judge somewhere who will say it was all legal and constitutional.
