presumably there was some sort of investigation if there were undercover fbi agents....

i'm just saying, wouldn't the normal process be to try not to go public with any of this until after the election?
unless perhaps the cover was blown somehow?

on edit:

the investigation was in 2016, it's news today because the lobbyist's texts and emails were subpoenaed and he decided to just release them publicly. not clear to me why, and why now. the article says he once was a good friend of gillum.
