Because of a criminal investigation. This is a different form of investigation, and a doozy.
It *should* be absolutely stunning. If you could erase the last two years worth of news, the FBI feeling the need to investigate the president as a possible foreign asset would be the biggest story ever...and it really still should be. But we’re so numb to this stuff, and so caught up in the “who will win” angle of the shutdown, that they’re being treated as equal stories.
“Coming up this hour, the FBI became so convinced over a period of nearly a year that the incoming president may be compromised by Russia that they opened a counterintelligence investigation. And the shutdown: where does it stand? Will the president get his wall? After this.”
