#9  State of Florida would be more trustworthy than the FBI but I think the law gives the FBI jurisdiction in this case.

#8  The FBI has announced they will be the lead investigative agency on this attempt. Good luck with that.

#6  Fog of war, Glavinter Peacock7962. Not reported is not the same as didn’t happen, so we’ll see.

But I hope one of President Trump’s first steps in the Oval Office is to order the old standards of ability and training are reestablished, and all who don’t make the cut let go immediately, without fear or favour.
