A Republican Speaker voting against warrant requirements for American citizens after this very process was blatantly abused to spy on Donald J. Trump and his campaign is beyond the pale.

I voted NO on Section 702 re-authorization after the Biggs-Jayapal amendment to require a warrant for queries of US persons failed in an unprecedented 212-212 vote.

I don’t discount the mounting dangers we face from enemies abroad. But we also cannot discount the dangers we face at home from the very powers this bill would continue. The FBI abused these powers 278,000 times in a single year and turned them against American citizens.

FISA can’t save us from the national-security threats of an open border.

A warrant requirement wouldn’t destroy the national-security benefits of FISA.

The Firm™️ has it exactly backwards.

Thanks to Joe Biden, Elissa Slotkin, and Mike Rogers, the government spies on millions of law-abiding Americans without a warrant.

Yeah, the Fourth Amendment kind of works that way—it requires more effort, and sometimes that means more judges.

The workload of judges shouldn’t determine whether to follow the Fourth Amendment.
