I hate FISA, but I think the argument against that is now you're basically giving foreigners the same constitutional rights as citizens.
F that. The FBI abused FISA so now they lose it. Go hit the Fing streets and investigate and do your Fing job instead of sitting in your cubes jerking it to citizen’s pictures in iCloud storage.

I really can't believe Trump would be in favor of extending FISA.
It's staring you right in the face.
Damn. That’s like microphone drop action right there. But I call. I think you’re bluffing. I think you’re being vague like that because you don’t actually have a decent explanation of what you even mean by that. Prove me wrong though. Please.

They need to add an ombudsman-type role who has clearance but whose job is to play devil’s advocate and offer some sort of adversarial position. You can’t let the fox guard the henhouse.

He was against how it was being used at the time.

Didn't Trump sign to extend the Patriot Act?

So what objective evidence do you have to support the position that it can be used without abuse?
You are a Trump supporter so you’ve watched judicial activists like Boasburg make a mockery of the courts and now we’re being told FISA should be extended for a decade without the major reforms that Patel demanded during his confirmation hearings and acknowledging that over 270k improper queries were made between 2020 and 2024?
It almost caused a coup in 2017 that could’ve lead to an actual civil war.
Where is the control mechanism when the courts are rubber stamps for their political parties, the appointees are political and self-serving and approval is nearly automatic statistically?

Here is a bit more from the piece:
quote:
Patel nonetheless assured Congress that change is underway. FBI added an extra checkbox to the process and reduced the number of people who have the authority, he said.
“We used to, before this, had a default, which allowed queries when we were [utilizing] our system to say it automatically searches 702—you now have to actually opt-in and select that box to make sure that you are intentionally doing so,” Patel told lawmakers on Thursday. “On top of that, we’ve reduced the number of personnel at the FBI from 6,600 before I got there to 3,500 that have access to it. Not that use it, but that have access to it.”
Patel said agents who unintentionally misuse data will lose access and go through training, while those who recklessly abuse it will have their access immediately terminated forever.
A couple of other interesting points. Sen. Wyden tried to beat up Kash over purchasing data on citizens, but Kash said it's no big deal. And, of course, Ratcliffe loves FISA.
