And any other agency he thought he could corrupt.

And how they operate is they ask someone there to do something and if they say no, they just ask the next guy, they keep going until they find someone that will either willingly break the law for them or is someone they have found leverage on. And one they start breaking the law for them, they push them to go further and further and further because that lawbreaking is now the leverage.

It's just like organized crime.
