Intel ‘Experts’ Who Falsely Discredited Hunter Biden Laptop Call To Extend Warrantless Spying On Americans
The Federalist ^ | DECEMBER 12, 2023 | TRISTAN JUSTICE

The same intelligence ‘experts’ who penned the Biden laptop letter in October 2020 are now calling on lawmakers to reauthorize Section 702 of FISA.

The same intelligence “experts” who penned the infamous Hunter Biden laptop letter in October 2020 are now calling on lawmakers to reauthorize the warrantless surveillance state through the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA).

On Monday, 46 former national security officials signed a letter urging Capitol Hill to rubber stamp the reauthorization of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). The same law was abused by deep-state FBI agents to surveil members of Trump’s campaign. The more than three dozen former national security officials who signed the letter invoked the fentanyl crisis and overseas turmoil to make their case for unconstitutional surveillance.

“As you well know, our nation is under significant threat today with wars in Europe and the Middle East, a potential conflict with China in the Indo-Pacific, and the deadly flow of fentanyl across our southern border,” they wrote. “In these circumstances, we cannot hamstring the U.S. Intelligence Community either by failing to renew Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act or by limiting it in ways that would make it difficult for the government to protect Americans.”

Things that get misused and don’t work get extended in DC.

Just the opposite of what should happen.

There is a bit of a logical disconnect in wanting to extend FISA surveillance (which is being used to create a de fact police state) on the basis of vital national security concerns while still indiscriminately importing millions of unvetted military age male. illegal aliens, thousands of which are on terrorist lists or are from hostile countries such as China, Cuba, the Middle East and Venezuela

Those 51 are the scum and Benedict Arnold's of Democracy. They're a disgrace to everything good about our system. 51 totalitarian totalitarian creeps. Someday with any luck, they'll be hauled into court and tried for treason.

They’ll spy on Americans regardless. Remove leadership from the FBI and CIA and replace with individuals who respect the rule of law.

I think that one of those “experts” called me the other day to let me know that my Socials were going to be suspended due to suspeecious activities in the state of Taxes. And that I would wind up in a Federal Goat House if I didn’t go down to Target and purchase $5000 worth of gift cards.

How about this? If it’s extended, it’s amended to require the death penalty for anyone directly involved in its abuse. Not my first choice, but might give some of the boots on the ground pause...I was at Air Intelligence Agency as a JAG and this would be a big club to use in responding to commanders’ requests to use Title 50 authority.
