The FBI Is Watching You. Yes, They Are.

Let's remember that this all started with George W. Bush (the Dumber) and was approved by such luminaries as James Sensenbrenner (who never moved back to Wisconsin) and Paul Ryan (who couldn't get away from Wisconsin fast enough.)  Abuse of the system commenced immediately.

The FBI may have conducted millions of warrantless searches of Americans’ electronic data last year, U.S. intelligence officials acknowledged in a report released Friday.

The report from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence revealed that the bureau conducted up to 3.4 million searches of U.S. data drawn from the National Security Agency. Senior Biden administration officials told The Wall Street Journal the number is likely inflated due to the way individual queries are tabulated, but the number was still nearly triple that of the prior year....

And of course, all those searches are strictly for "national security" and "foreign terrorist influences," not to mention RUSSIANS RUSSIANS RUSSIANS.

If you believe that, I have really nice lakefront property for you in North Africa.
