Have information you want no one ever to know? Tell the FBI!

When Napoleon received mail labeled urgent, it is said he would leave it in a pile, wait three weeks and then see whether it was still urgent. The FBI has not only seized this apocryphal approach but vastly improved upon it. After all, as the FBI explained, when it comes to vetting candidates for lifetime office, it doesn’t work for the American people, but for the current administration, or the Requesting Entity, which I have to imagine based on what it sounds like is a crystalline being that floats in space and destroys all approaching ships.
