The statement appears to be a critique of the relationship between government entities and media outlets, specifically addressing the notion of the FBI 'partnering' with such organizations. The tone is critical and somewhat informal, using the term 'Bullshit' to express strong disagreement with the idea that such partnerships are 'commonplace.' The content suggests a concern for the integrity of media and government interactions, and the link provided seems to offer further context by directing to a YouTube video about a Supreme Court case involving the NRA.
