President Donald Trump implored GOP lawmakers on Tuesday to "UNIFY" in support of an 18-month extension of a particular spying power that, while ostensibly limited to foreigners, has already been weaponized against American citizens — including Trump.
The warrantless surveillance authority of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act was both used to spy on Trump's 2016 campaign and exploited in recent years by the FBI hundreds of thousands of times to spy on U.S. citizens. However, Trump has now determined that it is presently "right for our Country" and needed by the military.
Trump's ((( handlers ))) don't want to let go of the ability to gin up charges against Americans without the need for due process.
