The NSA kept a real, meaningful scandal--and not a blowjob scandal, but one material to how the President will govern and look out for American interests--buried until after the election. While the FBI released a pseudo-update on a scandal of IT incompetence the week before the election after dragging it out for months.
It's hard not to be bitter about how politicized both these agencies are. I can see arguments either way about how and when things should be released, but there should be consistency. The fact that they're inconsistent and always happen to come up anti-Democrat is pretty telling.
ETA: As misja111 points out below, the NSA and CIA did announce this before the election. So, my ding against the NSA's political integrity was uncalled for. Leaving this comment here so no one is confused by all the replies.
