I just imagine the NSA spying on both of them and laughing

[demolisherman]

“Nebula supports the notion that the CIA had JFK Assassinated” is the wildest sponsorship segue I have heard in a while

[ariavachier-lagravech.]

Imagine being capable of stopping horrible events but getting tripped up by bureaucracy

[FindersKeeperz]

Holy crap the beef with the IAA and the FIB is actually real?!

[mueezadam]

They just being cute with each other. Like
“You hang up!”
“No you hang up! I know you’re tapping my line!”
“Oh my god sTOP you’re going to make my spill my drug shipment.”

[vkxe]

That Morse code on screen literally says “we are being bad”

[curtisbadio]

Not even the government can trust themselves

[serenegrace]

"things that might have been a problem to the US, like Chile being a democracy"...

As a chilean, that hit hard 💀

[safebox]

Huh, so my neighbour ranting that the CIA knew about 9/11 wasn't totally bullshit?

[JustAnotherGamer]

Ain’t this basically the subplot to GTA V?

[mmasque]

Ideally, the FBI exists to deal with crimes that cross state borders or done in the US involving foreign sources.
The CIA exists to collect information regarding possible hostilities by other countries.
Fairly simple and distinct objectives given when each organization was created.
But, since then, everything has become much more interconnected, especially regarding terrorism.
Both fall under the umbrella of Homeland Security, along with all the other alphabet organizations; ATF, CBP, ICE, DEA, NSA, LMNOP…

The CIA and FBI beefing is just hilarious 😂

[kristinmeyer]

LOVE IT: "The CIA is santioned to kill God." THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME LAUGH.

Did sam just say "our new show" when referring to a project sam from wendover is working on. Woah, someone might start to think they're the same person.

[dsnodgrass]

I dont know as I'd *want* the FBI and CIA able to work hand-in-hand; it'd be like the panther teaching the alligator to climb trees, in exchange for being taught how to swim really fast.

Worth noting that the FBI is actually quite fond of FISA warrants. They love using them on foreign citizens, with the intention of listening in on US citizens, in the US, that speak with them. It's a great back door in to a wiretap warrant, where they can say " hey, we were listening to this one guy, m but this other guy, that we knew would call him, happened to call them and talk about crimes." Depending on your stance on warrant-less searches this can be a good or bad strategy.

The FBI and CIA beef is like a real life Spy vs Spy scenario!

[Cottinmouth]

The cia is not supposed to operate in American soil but they do it any ways.

[Z_RE]

so they don't really "lie" to each other, they just can't exchange information easily because law

[lauraketteridge]

When on earth doesn't the FBI petition the Attorney General saying 'We are currently investigating person X with regards to situation Y, Z and W. Can you please instruct the CIA to give us information they may have on this person." The AG can determine if the request is reasonable, and in the interests of the American people.

Whilst the information supplied by the CIA would not be of courtroom-standard, it would give the FBI other leads to follow so they could investigate to get such evidence.
