ATF & FBI in turf fights

ADVERTISEMENTS

Story here. That's not unpredictable: "merging" two agencies by having them both report to one Cabinet official doesn't change anything.

FBI's had turf wars with CIA over foreign intelligence gathering, and I seem to recall with DEA over drug cases. I'm sure ATF sees FBI as wanting to grab all the best explosives cases and leave them with the uninteresting or less fruitful ones, and the FBI sees itself as the older brother with certain perks.
