Kelly Cohen, watchdog reporter for the Washington Examiner, joined Ed Berliner on "MidPoint" on Newsmax TV on Wednesday to discuss news that the firm U.S. Investigation Services, which conducted the background check on NSA leaker Edward Snowden, was just given a $190 million contract by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service.

"They did a bad job," Cohen said. "They've been under fire from the OPM [Office of Personnel Management], but they just got a $190 million contract to do what they failed to do with Edward Snowden."
