Congress puts more nails in the constitutional coffin as it’s set to renew FISA

Promising reforms is the easiest way to perpetuate abuses in Washington.
For more than a decade, illegal federal-surveillance scandals have rocked the nation.
Unfortunately, the House of Representatives will likely vote this week to continue letting the feds secretly spy on American citizens for another five years.
Whistleblower Edward Snowden revealed in 2013 that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act had unleashed federal agencies to snoop on anyone they pleased, including anyone “searching the web for suspicious stuff.”
In 2016, a top FBI lawyer made false claims to the FISA court to launch turbo-charged surveillance of a Trump campaign official, helping open the door to the Russiagate bogus scandal that rocked the Trump presidency.
Justice Department inspector-general reports have repeatedly exposed FISA violations since then.
