@emptywheel No, I mean during the period when FISC told NSA they’d screwed up too many times & needed to start coming to FISC for queries. -
@normative Right. But plain language of speech accomplishes all Obama said--bc O didn't call for particularized orders. -
@emptywheel@normative that practice got discontinued after about six months if Julian & I are talking about thw same thing -
@jujueyeball The groups that can be queried are all listed in quarterly orders (they're redacted). That's judicial finding, no?@normative
