There was a time when reporting malfeasance to the federal authorities was the obvious right thing to do.

Now it is clear that reporting criminal acts to eg. the FBI is very risky; if the officer is politically aligned to the politically and societaly dominant party, and you are not, you're toast.

There isn't a politically and socially (?) dominant party in the US. There were recently bitterly and closely contested federal elections there.
