We have FISA, which is specifically designed to handle foreign surveillance. The president is ignoring FISA. I have a problem with that. No one is above the law.
I don't care about FISA.
The Executive is not the Legislative. They are not authorized to limit the constitutionally granted authorities of the president.
Any president with a single ounce of backbone would tell FISA to take a hike.
What would happen to a boxer who, in the middle of a fight, had to get permission from his corner before throwing a punch?
I do not believe congress had the constitutional authority to pass FISA. Foreign intelligence is within the jurisdiction of the Executive branch. Congress cannot limit the powers that are constitutionally delegated to the executive branch.
The wiretaps were NOT unconstitutional, but the law that limited them was.
Where it affects our national security, the president not only has a right to disobey FISA, he has a DUTY to disobey it!
Why aren't Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton doing time then?
