It is almost inconceivable to me that our government even considers proposals like this.
The Justice Department has gotten the message from journalists, interest groups and government watchdogs and has decided to withdraw its proposal to allow federal agencies to lie to people seeking sensitive documents under the Freedom of Information Act.
The US government somehow acts as if it is separate and distinct from the American people. (It is far from being the only government that thinks this way.) It’s time to get back to “of the people, by the people, and for the people”.
By the way, any “law and order” Republican administration would be far worse.
