Warnings and more warnings: THEY PLAN TO STEAL ELECTION

141. Do you seriously think investigators would tell us?

I mean, really, have you even once, in all of your life, seen cops announce every action they were taking to investigate a crime? DId you ever once see such a process in a newspaper? News program?

If nothing else, 60+ years of cop shows on TV should have taught us all that LEOs never tell anyone outside an investigative team what exact things they were doing to solve a case. If you ever watched Criminal Minds, did you even once see Jennifer Jarreau call up reporters to update them on how they were going to conduct their investigation of their latest BAU case? She was their communications liaison, but, sure, every single episode, she called a reporter and said, hey, we're going to do some surveillance! I'll keep you posted! Except she didn't. Most of the time, she didn't deal with the press at all. When she did, her job was always about giving the press only enough information about some very high profile cases to keep them from poking their noses where they shouldn't, so that their 'news' didn't tip off suspects. Not once did she ever tell them, 'we have these people under surveillance,' because the FBI doesn't do that in reality, either. I defy you to show any case in real life where the FBI said they were wiretapping phones, or were tracking the movements of a suspect.

Go ahead. Show a case where they tipped their hand about that before an arrest.

I'll wait.

I mean, really, even it would still make no sense to allege that LEOs are doing nothing about X, when there is no way they would ever reveal what they were doing (or not). The only way we ever know what investigative steps they've taken is after they make an arrest.
