Oliver in his book “The Birth of the FBI.” The bureau was created in the aftermath of a partisan tussle between Theodore Roosevelt and Congress. Because the U.S. Constitution has not empowered any government group to enforce federal laws, the Department of Justice in the late 19th century “relied on detectives from the Secret Service and the Pinkerton Agency” to perform criminal investigations, according to FBI historian John F. Fox Jr. When Charles Bonaparte, Napoleon Bonaparte’s grandnephew, became Roosevelt’s attorney general and head of
