The FBI redirected lots of agents to work on deporting people who came to the U.S. illegally, but who were not involved in separate criminal activity.
Perhaps if they'd been working on terrorism and violence cases, the two National Guard agents would not have been shot.

In this interview, we learn all about Mike Johnson's attitude towards mayonnaise and bananas, but we also learn that the NYT's interviewer is incapable of asking him a serious question about anything. Which reflects rather more on NYT than it does on Johnson.
