Former Senior Trump Administration National Security Officials Issue Ultimatum Over FISA 702 Debate

Kash Patel and Richard Grenell, former Senior Trump Administration National Security Officials, today issued an ultimatum:

“We know better than most people just how the intelligence community has been allowed to abuse the system to punish their political enemies. We have called for the reform of FISA 702 to help install better guardrails on those who seek to abuse their authority. As Congress deliberates the extension of this foreign intelligence tool, we must ask why Chris Wray and his FBI have been allowed to abuse that very surveillance privilege and broken the law over 274,000 times to illegally surveil Americans. Remember, the F in FISA is ‘Foreign.’  Absent a dramatic reform of FISA 702, we call upon Congress to let it lapse – better to have no authority for 7 days or so than another 365 days of spying on Trump and his supporters.”
