A newly declassified report shows the FBI trawled through vast troves of Americans' communications collected by the National Security Agency
Despite previous warnings it was violating the Constitution, the report reveals how the FBI continues to use warrantless searches for routine criminal cases A single request from an FBI analyst for NSA data 'in connection with predicated criminal investigations relating to domestic terrorism' turned up 33 hits
It's unclear from the heavily-redacted FISA court report whether it uncovered any criminal extremist behavior or made any arrests resulting from the searches
A senior FBI official told the DailyMail.com the FBI had taken 'numerous steps' to comply with the FISA court guidance over the past 18 months
It comes as the DHS vows to root out domestic extremists within its ranks, and Congress ponders new domestic terror laws

crushing our freedoms and wasting our time while they be ‘woke’...
Surprise! The fbi is really just the private army of the democrat party.
Slap on the wrist and more mandated “training”. That will stop this. Not.
If the Republicans ever win back the White House an executive order should be issued that requires the FBI to wear a Nazi armband.
Bruce jenner is still a male. Hey, what’s that knock at my door?
“Trust Wray” said the Qballs.

America’s KGB
Is anyone going to stop them? No way.
Charge them all with High Treason, burn their buildings to the ground.
The Republicans are in on it.
Donald missed a chance to abolish the FBI during the second half of his term. It has become the American Stasi and needs a full house cleaning.
This is not our country, are in actions saw to this years ago.
The DOJ for sure.
The FBI is being made more diverse through recruiting efforts and of course those that toe the line get promoted and the leadership at the senior levels all make a sucking sound and crawl in their knees when not pretending to be be independent thinking tough guys to their subordinates. Hahahaha
The FBI is just another government buerrocracy. There is no magic.
That said, Bush set the stage for all of this with his Patriot Act and mass surveillance. All you are seeing today is the natural progression when you give government these powers. Duh-
Politicians will figure out a way to use these powers to their advantage and today the Intel community is largely pointed inward. After all, post 911 we wanted to find those “bad guys” before they attack, but we never wanted to change our immigration or refugee programs. Hell, we’re still bringing in folks in groves that hate this place and plan to do us harm,
You can count the number of govt officials that weren’t working against DJT on one hand. What he accomplished was amazing.
the fibbers ....so out of control....and yet they couldn’t stop a mental case and terrorist from buying guns and then killing people...
Yep.
Executive Order?
I think that Biden, in his first day in office, overturned more than a dozen Trump’s orders.
The federal budget doesn’t spend tens of billions of dollars on NSA Data collection of all Americans and not do as they please with it?! Nobody in federal agencies could give a rats ass what any judge says over constitutional limits.
When cwii/rwii reais out finally, all fgi and batfe folks are not gonna have a good day. They are not gonna find many friends.
This story is very troubling. What is the definition of extremism? Everything depends on that..... right now, there are a bunch of dummies who entered the capital that have been branded “extremists” and held without bail in DC. Without bail despite having no criminal history and strong ties to their individual communities.
Let that sink in.... combine that “determination” with this story and we should all be worried.
