So your premise is any agent of any IC or the Just. Dept., or Exec br. can request and get any convo between an USPs and any foreign person?
Nope. How many US citizens communications will be caught up in 106K full data streams?
-
-
Caught up, but again, how many are searched illegally without a warrant or unmasked? Usually only the gatherer has unmasked intel
-
FISC has approved these searches; they're considered legal but Congress may change that. But 5,000 USPs were searched on w/o a warrant.
-
So the 106k "data stream" number is NSA. Raw data. FBI and CIA get a subset. What 34k? CIA gets more than FBI? Same? This is over 4years?
-
106K is just last year. Last year they pulled all the data streams for 94K targets. Before that 92K targets. Data kept for 5 years.
-
Again of who? You have said 106k US citizens and106k foreigners.
-
I keep pointing out these are foreigners. Q is how many Americans are talking to those 106K foreigners? We don't know.pic.twitter.com/GSqLrNBVG8

So why do we care how many foreigners are spied on? That's legal and the job of the IC. That seems 100% fine and dandy.

If you're pulling full streams off 106K foreigners who talk to Americans, you're pulling in the conversations of a whole lot of Americans
