Patrick Eddington, Cato Institute senior fellow and former CIA analyst, confirms what civil libertarians have argued for years: the FISA court has quietly inserted a national security exception into the Fourth Amendment that doesn't exist anywhere in the Constitution's text, and the FBI has been searching the Section 702 database for information on American citizens without a warrant since 2008. The reauthorization is currently stalled — caught between Trump's demand to attach it to the Save America Act and a Senate that doesn't have the votes — but Eddington warns the surveillance hawks will use every tactic available to push it through.
