The only surprise here is that the Wapo reports it.

According to Barry the only problem is idiotic Americans don’t trust their government. He’s gonna get on a bus and fix that though.

The National Security Agency has broken privacy rules or overstepped its legal authority thousands of times each year since Congress granted the agency broad new powers in 2008, according to an internal audit and other top-secret documents.

"Overstepping its legal authority" = committing criminal acts.

The US government is now functioning as a criminal organization.

But it’s for security. We must give up all of our Constitutional rights for the illusion of security!

“Every now and then, there may be a mistake,” Cole said in congressional testimony.


Thats how thousands of times per year is defined,,,a mistake every now and then.

Just a little fish food to distract the guppies from the massive amount of internal data gathering which includes the contents of all calls, emails, electronic and financial transactions, etc.
