Just that would have been illegal on the part of the CIA, NSA — and possibly the FBI if they had not warrants for surveillance. But you’re right — we shouldn’t be naive enough to think that because it’s illegal that it doesn’t go on in our government. However, if they are going to take it into a court of law they need to be able to say that they obtained this information lawfully — and that’s where FISA comes in.
If the Trump-impeachment results in the repeal of the Patriot Act & cause a whole-sale restructuring of the mission of the FBI it will probably have been worth it. It may take a constitutional-crisis to end bad laws & rogue agencies.

Crooked FBI leader....but look who prosecuted him..John “Bull” Durham
Not log ago we heard of the libs idea of a North American Union, where there were no barriers between Mexico, Canada and the U.S.
Seems The Donald has put that idea where it belongs.
I am wondering how the revelation that Comey, Schiff, NAdler, Pelosi & all the others have been LYING for all these many months will sit with the more well known members of the media who have been hanging out there on a limb trying to support all of the anti-Trump rhetoric?
I would not be surprised if a couple of “Suicides” happen.
Never Trumper Lowry just can’t avoid getting digs in at President Trump, even in an article taking Comey to the woodshed.
I think President Trump was too generous in calling Comey “scum.”
That was a Bush idea.
Slow walking?
He’s only been free to investigate since late May, and only was confirmed shortly before that.
