Yikes. Rep. @AdamKinzinger is dumb.
There are multiple reasons why the FBI could have publicly listed a sensitive name — Ray Epps — and then quickly erased it.
Let’s explore two of those reasons.

Let’s explore two of those reasons.
First, compartmentation.
An informant’s identity is often kept secret within the FBI.
Ray Epps could’ve been known by one set of officers but not another, w/ the latter posting the name before the former caught it.
Upshot: good opsec can sometimes lead to unhappy outcomes.

Second: The FBI got sloppy.
It wouldn’t be the first time that the FBI forgot to hide something that it might prefer remain hidden.
Consider this oopsie case involving the connection between the 9/11 attacks and the Saudi Govt:
