"I want to report a crime!"

[Sam McGee]

I just placed a phone call to the FBI office in XXXXX VA.

They have the typical answering system -- to report a crime, press 1; to report a bank robbery, press 2; etc., etc.

I pressed 1 to report a crime.

An FBI agent answered. This is generally how the conversation went:

Agent: "FBI. What crime do you want to report?"

Me: "I want to report treason, obstruction of justice, and assault on federal officers."

Agent: (She paused for a moment.) "Could you provide me with some details?"

Me: "These crimes were committed by a man named Donald Trump, his address is 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington DC."

I won't continue with verbatim, however, when I told her that, she took a minute before replying and I could tell from the tone of her voice she was about to crack up!!

I then went on to tell her that I have full confidence in the FBI's professionalism and integrity and I am appalled, sickened, and worried about the attacks on the FBI from Congress and the White House. We had a nice conversation.

If a lot of us call our local FBI offices with the same report, maybe they'll arrest the sonofabitch.

2. I'm sure that you didn't sound anything at all like a crank

3. I'd say you're calling the wrong people.

IMHO, that time would have been better spent calling your representatives in Congress.

Plus there's always the chance that you'd get the wrong agent, some Trump supporter who might try to charge you with phone harassment, filing a false police report, or some such thing (yes, I'm that paranoid).

The hell you say.

5. Maybe we should call and report the crime we see happening.

Imagine if about 45 million called and reported the same crime. We are witnesses to it.

Maybe we should all write the pres....oops, forgot we don't have one of those at the moment. Err, write the orange shitter in the oval house about this crime. Think he would get mad if 45 million or so letters came saying the same thing.
