Third, Sessions, testifying before Congress just last Wednesday that wholesale spying on millions of Americans under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act is “peachy keen” to protect the citizenry against terrorists.

I wholeheartedly agree with Larry Klayman on this point. These FISA searches are not supported by legitimate warrants—which must be backed by probable cause—and are therefore patently illegal, constituting a straightforward and unambiguous violation of the Fourth Amendment.

People can say what they want about the other 5 points Mr, Klayman raises, but this routine disregard for the Bill of Rights one is hard to rationalize, IMHO.

Indeed, it appears that FISA warrants may have been one of the chief weapons used by the Hillary Clinton campaign—under the flimsy auspices of the authority of the sitting President, Barack H. Obama—to unethically and illegally gather intelligence on Donald J. Trump's campaign team in an effort to sabotage his candidacy.

If true, such political crimes exceed— by several orders of magnitude—those alleged to have been committed by President Richard H. Nixon while in office...
