I'm not dodging anything. You are the one that cannot form a clear proposition as to why you think the NSA is unconstitutional.

If you could do that, maybe I'd understand your position.

Edson Range is a rifle range on Camp Pendleton, CA. Guess what? Congress didn't create it. Does that make it unconstitutional?

Help me understand why you think NSA should be removed from DoD, and placed under CIA, which is a HUMINT organization that only reports to the President and his politically appointed DNI. Truman didn't create anything without congressional authorization. Where did the money come from? His lemonade stand outside the WH?

How about NGA? Unconstitutional? Cool. Maps and other geodesic aids are overrated.

I have made it clear that IF the NSA is part of the unconstitutional Administrative State, then it is unconstitutional. Pretty clear.

You seem to not understand that the fourth branch of the federal government, the Administrative State, is unconstitutional. The Constitution does not authorize this unaccountable branch that apparently no one really knows how big it really is nor who these rogue agencies report to. Federal tyranny run amok.

Congress creating something or not creating something is NOT the standard of constitutionality. THE CONSTITUTION ITSELF as written and originally understood and intended is the standard. So Truman creating something with congressional authorization does not per se mean it is constitutional.

If the NGA is part of the Administrative State, then it is unconstitutional.
