You're paying for it, but you're not entitled to know what these agencies are doing anymore.

Remember how Trump went on and on during the campaign about the lack of government transparency? Looks like his supporters got suckered again. The rest of us knew he was going to be more secretive than that fucker Nixon.

Wait until the leaks start, though. It will drive him crazier.
