The FBI Conducted 278,000 Illegal Warrantless Searches in One Year

The best the FBI seems to be able to manage these days is that most of the agents are good, law-abiding folks; it’s just a bunch of bad apples at the top. Good luck with that, especially after a FISA Court report showed the agency “used warrantless search powers against U.S. citizens more than 278,000 times in the year ending November 2021.

 

“As Director Wray has made clear, the errors described in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court’s opinion are completely unacceptable,” a senior FBI official told Fox News Friday. “As a result of the audits that revealed these instances of noncompliance, the FBI changed its querying procedures to make sure these errors do not happen again. These steps have led to significant improvement in the way we conduct queries of lawfully obtained Section 702 information.”

“We are committed to continuing this work and providing greater transparency into the process to earn the trust of the American people and advance our mission of safeguarding both the nation’s security, and privacy and civil liberties, at the same time,” the senior FBI official said.

 

We’re sorry about all the corruption and abuse of power. We pinkie swear we’re working on it. Sure, the same way Lois Lerner is working on tan on a beach somewhere. No one ever got punished for IRS abuses under the Obama Administration in the lead-up to the 2012 elections. And look, no one on the left yelled “election tampering” because it’s okay when you interfere with the election speech of folks on the right.

It is expected. Required! Election meddling is all about Democracy for Demcorats, as is the FBI Obama built. That’s the “Yes You Scan” administration that spied on allies, reporters, and just about everyone for political reasons. They let those roots run deep. They spied on a presidential campaign and a sitting president, running fake investigations based on fake evidence.

But don’t you worry! The FBI has been made aware of its issues and will seek counseling.

Sure. Yeah. Right.

No one trusts you, and I’m not entirely sure that wasn’t the point.
