>> He said he had the authority to wiretap nearly everyone in the United States.

He couldn’t possibly wiretap everyone. So he might have had the authority to wire tap “anyone” that met certain parameters.

A phenomenal diversion this has been.

Who gave him the authority to wiretap nearly everyone in the US and how many people did he oversee?

"A phenomenal diversion this has been."

The IRS, Bengazhi, gun running to Syrian insurgents and Mexican gangs all have much more palpable links to the White House.

This "thing" is an abuse that predates The Usurper.

Methinks they want this in the headlines - as it is.

‘There is so much data that only a little of it can be analyzed.’
‘He couldn’t possibly wiretap everyone.’

Once I shared those opinions. But the following programs
are very powerful and all encompassing.

‘. IGRAM Integrated Graphics and Multimedia Report - uses attached media, connected via hyperlinks, to enhance or clarify the information in the original serialized reports.
JDISS A tactical extension of the DODISS network that is capable of performing multiple functions and providing links to various intelligence systems and databases.
GALE Lite Generic Area Limitation Environment - A suite of tools and automated services designed to support a wide range of intelligence analysis functions.
NRTD Supplies a combined near-real-time intelligence picture derived from SIGINT and other sources to operational and intelligence customers at all levels.
OILSTOCK A high-resolution, geographic based graphics system used to display real-time and historical data over a map background.

He was a sysadmin. They operate at a level below the audit trails and checks. Who knows what he could access!

Of course, he wasn't the only sysadmin, so he would have needed to be discreet.

“He couldn’t possibly wiretap everyone.”

Sure he can. The systems are setup to allow access to any stream or record. If he knows an IP address, an email address, a phone number, any data point reference at all, he can.
