An internal FBI audit has found the agency violated rules more than 1,000 times while collecting data on domestic phone calls, e-mails and financial transactions in recent years, The Washington Post reported on Thursday.[/i]

[i]The number of violations uncovered by the audit was far greater than those previously documented in a Justice Department report in March, the Post said.[/i]

Who knew? The FBI violated its own rules & the law? NOOOOOOOES! But don't worry - they said it was just honest mistakes. Honest!

Relic

There is no Honesty in over 1000 law violations...Ahh if they hadn't have killed Kennedy perhaps the FBI would be just a relic of the last millennium.
