On the flip side of the coin, they also are saying that they can "prove" that there is Russian hackers interfering with our elections, and such which every nation on earth does to some extent. Yet this same group cannot follow up leads to stop these incidents from happening?

Never said it was, however, them letting it happen and not passing on at the least the information to local LE, and now say they don't have the resources or money etc to do anything about it other than oops, our bad we missed that. They are are going to use this as does every other agency to push for more laws, budgets, and tools, so this won't happen again, but it does.
Now I do want to be clear, I know several people who work for these agencies, I am not saying that all these people are bad, malevolent or what not, in fact most are just the opposite, they are doing the best they can to help their country.
What I am saying however is that, the systems in place now need to be overhauled and reigned in on a lot of aspects of this.

It just blows my mind that people forget the US is a Constitutional Republic, not a democracy, and there are laws that need to be followed, and the limitation of powers on multiple levels of governments.
