President Trump on Thursday called for the House to renew the National Security Agency’s (NSA) controversial warrantless surveillance program even after expressing frustration over reports that the program had been used to spy on his campaign in 2016.
The House is headed for a close vote Thursday over whether to reauthorize the program, which has been criticized for the ease with which prosecutors can obtain warrants from a surveillance court to spy on Americans.
The White House has called on the program to be reauthorized, but the president lashed out at the program early Thursday. Trump’s allies have alleged that the FBI used a salacious opposition research memo detailing allegations of Trump-Russia collusion to obtain a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant to spy on his campaign and transition team.

Well he’s not going to use it to spy on himself. Or his friends.
The dossier didn’t come from NSA. It came from Obama’s FBI, Justice Department, and DNC’s Fusion, who were all connected at the hip and acting in collusion with one another.
When it comes to Big Government surveilling our web searches, texts, financial transactions, social media, etc, there is zero practical difference between GWB, Obama, and Trump.
of course he said “fix it”! which should be the title of the article.
The President submitted an EO requesting the head spook to come up with new rules.
Paul will fix it in the Senate.
This needs to be shut down. 4th Amendment for Americans!
President Trump has likely been subject to more illegal surveillance than any other American.
If he’s willing to keep the program going there must be a good reason.
Won’t surveille you, won’t surveille me.
Only surveille that guy under the tree.

We, the people. demand to know the scope and dimension
of political intelligence that was illegally gleaned and sent to
Clinton's Presidential campaign.......and how her campaign used it.
Quite true. I with more folks could put aside their partisan nature and recognize it.
He ripped the portion that wasn’t being voted on today - since so many idiots decided he wanted a full stop, he had to say it so even the low IQ ones could understand ....
