Straight scoop on NSA’s domestic spying
Media Matters (see sidebar) has a great article running down the loose ends of another warrantless NSA spying program that was disclosed this week in USA Today. The USA Today article reported that the NSA has been collecting telephone records from phone companies without a search warrant. The Media Matters article also shows how this new program is tied in with the earlier-reported warrantless domestic eavesdropping program also conducted by NSA. Evidently, the practice has been to cull through the telephone records to determine which specific phone should be tapped without a warrant. Pure Orwell if you ask me.
