FBI Still Doing "Black Bag" Jobs

Under J. Edgar Hoover, the FBI illegally performed "Black Bag" jobs, breaking into properties and performing illegal search and photography missions, in violation of the Constitution. It was ordered illegal in 1972 by the U.S. Supreme Court.

It's amazing that all these years later, under former President, George W. Bush and FBI Director, Robert S. Mueller, the FBI still did "Black Bag" jobs on private residences. Some things never change. Let's hope Obama discontinues the practice.

Another instance of history repeating itself: FBI Director Robert S. Mueller misusing the FBI for political, social and financial gain. Former FBI Director, William Steele Sessions, abused his post as well and was fired for it.
