This is DEAD Wrong - FBI Spied on U.S. Senator

This is where I’m supposed to say it’s shocking or unbelievable, but the sad reality is it’s almost not even surprising anymore.
We’ve just learned that the Deep State FBI illegally spied on a sitting U.S. Senator. And not back in the ’50s. This happened LAST YEAR under President Joe Biden.
At the time we went on the air, the identity of the Senator who was the subject of this illegal surveillance had not been released. All we know so far is that they have been notified. We don’t know if it’s a man, woman, Republican, or even Democrat. But it doesn’t matter. Wrong is wrong. This is completely unacceptable and illegal, regardless of which side of the aisle the Senator resides.
Even Democrat Senator Ron Wyden (OR), an official we don’t often see eye-to-eye with, released a statement demanding transparency and reform of Section 702:
“For years, as government officials have provided misleadingly narrow testimony about who is targeted under Section 702, I have pushed to get the government to come clean. The revelation that 702 is used against “foreign governments and related entities” directly impacts Americans’ privacy, as American journalists, businesspeople, students and others all have legitimate reason to communicate with foreign governments. The fact they can be swept up in 702 collection further highlights the need for reforms to protect their privacy.”
This is a total misuse of Section 702, which is specifically meant to be used in collecting information on FOREIGN subjects of federal investigations outside of the United States. It is not for the Deep State to spy on a sitting U.S. Senator. Unfortunately, none of this is really new to us. The ACLJ filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request in 2022 in response to the FBI’s abuse of Section 702 for its spying on U.S. citizens. But as is par for the course, especially under the Biden Administration, the FBI decided that if it ignored our FOIA, we would just go away. So, as we told you, we filed a lawsuit in federal court to get the records. You can learn more about our case here.
Yet again, the Deep State FBI has shown the world that it cannot be trusted to self-regulate. Everyone involved in this situation needs to be exposed, rooted out, and held accountable.
Today’s full Sekulow broadcast includes more analysis of this latest revelation of FBI corruption and abuse of regulations to spy on Americans. The entire system needs to be revamped, and the ACLJ continues to not only pursue our lawsuit against the Biden FBI but also hold the Deep State accountable.
