President Clinton ordered a warrantless physical search of Aldrich Ames's residence in 1993, but Congress bolstered FISA by updating it to further assist Clinton instead of accusing his administration of illegal searches.
The Aldrich Ames incident was the source of a famous Klintoon quotation:
(Told by an associate that he couldn’t do that break-in without a warrant), Klintoon said - I can do any damn thing I want, I’m the President of the United States.
No arrogance there. s/ off
