The intertwined issues of privacy and secrecy will force Congress to finally deal with the world of digital information. Being such a big issues and how they are able to use such information against people in court, how was Hillary Clinton able to get off her FBI investigation? It doesn't make senseto me how they abuse this power to convict people in court, but yet our countries elite get off without so much as a fine.

The FBI has exposed itself as a highly corrupted organization by allowing a politician to be above the law. The federal government ought to remove Comey from his position of power as he has said that Hillary should not be charged, although she committed a crime, and was exposed. In other words, he said she is above the law. Which no one person can be above the law in a republic, or a democracy, or any functioning country with laws.

The agency is understaffed and lacks the resources to adequately monitor the millions of miles of pipelines over which it does have authority.

Pres. Donald Trump is now restricting scientist's from sharing their research. Officials at the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) and the USDA (U.S. Department of Agriculture) have both let their staff know that they can not discuss research done by the agency or any departmental restrictions with anyone outside of the agency. This includes talking to the news, releasing photos, posting on social media, and more.

it is frightening to me that our new administration and President are trying to silence science based departments. The taxpayer funds the research that goes on, and therefore has a right to know the outcomes of what they are funding.
