(1) Notwithstanding any other law, the President, through the Attorney General, may authorize electronic surveillance without a court order under this subchapter to acquire foreign intelligence information for periods of up to one year if the Attorney General certifies in writing under oath that
(A) the electronic surveillance is solely directed at (i) the acquisition of the contents of communications transmitted by means of communications used exclusively between or among foreign powers, as defined in section 1801(a)(1), (2), or (3) of this title; or (ii) the acquisition of technical intelligence, other than the spoken communications of individuals, from property or premises under the open and exclusive control of a foreign power, as defined in section 1801(a)(1), (2), or (3) of this title; (B) there is no substantial likelihood that the surveillance will acquire the contents of any communication to which a United States person is a party; and (C) the proposed minimization procedures with respect to such surveillance meet the definition of minimization procedures under section 1801(h) of this title; and if the Attorney General reports such minimization procedures and any changes thereto to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence at least thirty days prior to their effective date, unless the Attorney General determines immediate action is required and notifies the committees immediately of such minimization procedures and the reason for their becoming effective immediately.
While (B) seems to contradict the underlying permissive nature of Section 1802 as it involves a United States person, what the Snowden affair has demonstrated all too clearly, is how frequently the NSA and FISA court would make US citizens collateral damage. To be sure, many pointed out the fact that Fox News correspondent James Rosens email notoriously captured in 2013 when the DOJ was investigating government leaks. The Associated Press was also infamously wiretapped in relation to the same investigation.
Repeating for emphasis:
Notwithstanding any other law, the President, through the Attorney General, may authorize electronic surveillance without a court order
Ahem .where am I wrong on this?
This is just more whining from Trump and his cult.
Your false statement is just lying bullshit from a Paultard libertarian asshole.
(i) the acquisition of the contents of communications transmitted by means of communications used exclusively between or among foreign powers, as defined in section 1801(a)
Idiot! Your long-winded screed says nothing about a president arbitrarily ordering electronic surveillance on a political rival.
Idiot! Your long-winded screed says nothing about a president arbitrarily ordering electronic surveillance on a political rival.
Asshole, you specifically said:
The president does not have the authority to authorize a wiretap.
And I have proven that was a LIE .he DOES.
Since Obama and Lynch felt Trump was colluding with the Russians, Obama could have authorized [through Lynch] a wiretap on Trump under this subchapter to acquire foreign intelligence information. And I am guessing the devious bastards did exactly that.
