    GOP won't reauthorize FISA without FBI reforms following Durham report: 'Stop the abu

    Sounds reasonable and needed. And it isn't just the Durham report. At the same time as that release, other FOIA missuses by the FBI were uncovered, affecting hundreds of thousands of Americans.

    GOP won't reauthorize FISA without FBI reforms following Durham report: 'Stop the abuses

    Leading House Republicans won't back the reauthorization of powers under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act without major reforms in the wake of the FBI’s FISA abuses and special counsel John Durham’s report.


    Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH), chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Darin LaHood (R-IL), the Turner-designated leader of the committee’s FISA Working Group, and Rep. Mike Garcia (R-CA), another key committee member, all spoke with the Washington Examiner about the need for guardrails before FISA powers are reauthorized.


    The trio of lawmakers want reforms at the FBI and at the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, which approves the secret warrants. Their demands are at odds with the Biden administration, which wants to reauthorize FISA Section 702 powers without changes before it expires at the end of 2023.


    “We have been very clear on a bipartisan basis with the intelligence community and the FBI that there is no support in Congress for a clean reauthorization of 702,” Turner told the Washington Examiner. “Reforms are necessary. We will be taking up the issue of reforms, and they will not be limited to 702 itself. It will encompass both abuses that we are aware of and abuses that are now in the public domain as a result of disclosure and Durham.”

    I had a dream last night that they zeroed out the FBI in the next budget.

    It is just a dream. McCarthy gave up all of his leverage for the next two years.

    I applaud that they recognize that FISA is flawed but they should end it, write a replacement that reflects all the errors, expose it to the public citizens panel, run it as a referendum and then vote on it.

    Then do the same thing as a Patriot Act.

    Taking away our rights should not be negotiated away ever. Taking away our rights should never be done behind closed doors.

    Do the same thing with the Patriot Act.

    Congress has and continues to screw the US public.

    Originally FISA had nothing to do with Americans. They should return to that.
