Don’t look now but the FBI is resisting the political witch-hunt loosed upon it.

Don't quote me on this, but I believe that allied countries and the US have agreements with each other that they can send spies into each others country as long as they're working within the agreement. Also, I'm sure, they're probably doing not so good things in other countries with no agreement, so.

Wouldn't they use the CIA for that though? The FBI is a federal law enforcement agency

Oh! I see what you mean, yes. FBI is probably more on home turf, while CIA is more broad. My comment was basically a tongue in cheek way of saying these FBI agents need to stand their ground since Trump would have no problem at all getting rid of them if they start to waiver, just like he did the CIA agents his first term.

I am not good at making my points. :')
