Unclaimed Territory

More from - Glenn Greenwald

Is this the sleaziest presidency ever?

"the Government is still required to obtain approval from the FISA court in order to use pen registers; the only change mades by the Patriot Act was to lower the showing the Government was required to make to the FISA court in order to obtain permission to use a pen register."

A pen register collects telephone data. Did this president even bother to ask FISA?
