Not to mention, this monstrosity of a “court” is likely nowhere to be found in the Constitution! It’s most likely a rubber stamp for .gov and its intelligence services!

IIRC, Congress can create various courts, per the Constitution. I don’t believe the Founders envisioned this kind of evil, though.

Actually, yes it is:

Article III.
Section. 1.
The judicial Power of the United States shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. [emphasis added]
As an inferior court, I would think is it answerable to the Supremes. They are shirking their duty.

Breitbart had a story on this the other day here. The court's members deny that it is a rubber stamp for the government, but according to the Breitbart article, 1800 requests were made for wiretaps last year, and the FISA court did not deny a single request. In other words, the court had a 100% approval of every government request for wiretaps last year, and its legal opinions are classified.
