After Watergate, Congress exposed how the F.B.I. had surveilled, blackmailed and intimidated activists, celebrities and politicians. To prevent such abuse, President Gerald Ford’s administration prohibited the agency from opening investigations without reasonable suspicion of a crime. In 2008, Attorney General Michael Mukasey and his Justice Department worked around that reform by creating a new category of F.B.I. investigations called “assessments.” Under the new policy, agents could use physical surveillance and interview acquaintances, as well as informants, to gather information, even in the absence of a demonstrably high level of suspicion.

Federalism has the capability of being both bad and good. It just depends who you ask. On one side the advantages of fedaralism is it creates more effectiveness and makes the government stable. On the other hand federalism is risky it gets expensive, lead to a complex tax system and is slow in responses to crisis.

Historians have given a lot of attention to the relationship between the federal and state governments. The states must comply with laws passed by the US Congress as long as the laws do not violate the U.S. Constitution.
