Clinton had a wall built between the CIA and the FBI, our intelligence was in shambles, and thus we were caught completely unawares on 9/11/2001. Now 10 years later, we are again very vulnerable.

In more ways than one.

You're shifting the focus from our government failing to protect us from the bad guys to the government targeting us, the good guys. That's not on point to this discussion, but a valid concern nonetheless.

The video lacks specifics and the lawyer in the video indicates that searches here have only come into play in follow-up investigations (FBI agents storming the house with guns drawn needs explanation for instance (for example, did they have a valid warrant or reasonably believe there was an emergency?). Government officials must have performed a search (or seizure) of one's "person, house, papers or effects" to have implicated the Fourth Amendment. Generally, a "search" must involve violating one's "reasonable expectation of privacy" which is determined based on the specific facts of the circumstances.
