Senator Rand Paul may oppose him because of this.

Didn’t Rand Paul oppose the continuation of Patriot Act?

This was metadata, not recordings of the actual phone calls.

From his opinion:
To be sure, sincere and passionate concerns have been raised about the Governments program. Those policy arguments may be addressed by Congress and the Executive. Those institutions possess authority to scale back or put more checks on this program, as they have done to some extent by enacting the USA Freedom Act.

On September 11, 2001, Brett Kavenaugh was in the White House with his wife when the plane hit the Pentagon. They were instructed to run for their lives from the White House as another plane was on the way. That would have been Flight 93. He saw the destruction which muslims wrought that day. He lived it. No doubt that colored his view of the NSA surveillance.

It was about metadata—not the content from calls. Back in the old days, police weren’t allowed to listen to or record our telephone calls without warrants. But they were allowed to find out where we were. Do you see?
Granted, there’s more to it than that, including information about who’s calling, who we’re calling, etc.
But I don’t know what Kavanaugh could have legally done about it. It may be, that we needed Congress to legislate on the matter or to repeal some legislation. Most of the Fourth Amendment violations implemented in judicial decisions have come from Congress. For judges, it can be difficult to decide against congressional laws sometimes, and even more difficult for judges who are not in the Supreme Court.

As I read the
whole story, Kavanaugh says the
constitution doesn't forbid the collection, but since congress has now outlawed it, he would follow current law and find it illegal.
I do not see a huge problem if it is honestly explained.

Didn’t the NSA recently delete those phone records anyway?

Blame congress. They write crap laws hoping courts will fix it. A bad law can be constitutional. It is not the courts duty to rewrite it
Everyone screamed about Roberts deciding to rewrite what obozo care was really all about. We don’t want that

SO he supports the invasion of the FERAL Government into our daily lives and he said that Obamacare could fall under what was considered a tax.
People are calling this guy a constitutional and conservative judge?
Now that is a reach in what I consider a constitutional conservative pick and really doubt he will move the Suckpreme court to the right by an inch.
